Real property
The Polish real estate market is developing dynamically, offering investors from both domestic and international backgrounds a variety of opportunities. The residential, commercial, industrial, and land property segments are experiencing continuous growth, driven by favorable economic conditions and support from EU funds and government programs.
Land Properties
Land prices in Poland have been systematically rising. Since joining the EU, land prices have increased sixfold within a decade, with an average annual growth rate of 20%. The reason is the perception of land as a safe capital investment, independent of economic fluctuations. Poland attracts foreign investors thanks to the availability of European funds and the existence of Special Economic Zones (SEZs). SEZs offer tax reliefs and preferential conditions for companies, enhancing investment attractiveness.
Residential Properties
The Polish housing market is responding to the growing demand for new apartments. The “Housing Plus” program addresses housing challenges by offering the construction of energy-efficient and plus-energy homes that produce more energy than they consume. The program aims to facilitate access to housing for young people and families, with preferential rental costs and the possibility of acquiring property ownership.
The value of the Polish construction market exceeded EUR 50 billion in 2023, making it one of the fastest-growing in Europe. Construction accounts for 21% of GDP and employs 2.6 million people.
Industrial and Warehouse Properties
The warehouse segment in Poland is expanding due to the country’s strategic location in central Europe and the growing share of e-commerce. In 2023, 3 million m² of warehouse space was leased, and the vacancy rate dropped to 4.5%. The regions of Warsaw and Central Poland attracted the most interest.
Investments in wind farms and photovoltaic farms on decommissioned agricultural land are gaining popularity, constituting a crucial element of the energy transition. The average price of a hectare of agricultural land in Poland is EUR 6,000, making it attractive compared to Western European countries.
Recreational Properties
Recreational land in Poland is in high demand, especially in regions with significant landscape value. The most expensive areas are in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, while the cheapest are in Podkarpacie. Coastal plots reach prices of up to PLN 132/m², and the Masurian region remains an attractive area with prices around PLN 89/m² for lakeside plots.
Retail Real Estate Market
Retail investments in Poland are focused on large cities, where multifunctional shopping centers are being developed. A stable economy and infrastructure development support long-term growth in this segment.
The Polish real estate market is diverse, offering investment opportunities across various segments. Economic growth, EU support, and expanding infrastructure make Poland an attractive place for real estate investment.
