Invest in Poznan!
The property bubble in big cities like Krakow and Warsaw may be bursting, but that's just clearing the way for previously ignored cities like Wroclaw and Poznan to suddenly take the spotlight. The start of 2008 has seen many predictions from such top financial publications as the Warsaw Business Journal and the Warsaw Voice that Poznan will be the "next big thing" in Poland as far as property goes.
But, you ask, how does one take advantage of such a promising market? Well, we've compiled some Polish and foreign real estate companies below that provide services in English. They can even navigate the tricky Polish property laws, and get you that house or flat in the Old Town you've been dreaming of!
The Law on Purchasing a Property in Poland
Citizens of EU countries, as well as Icelanders, Norwegians and Liechtensteiners have the easiest time buying property in Poland, although if you're after farmland or forest, things are a little more complicated.
However, as far as urban property goes, applicants shouldn't encounter too many problems, whether you're a citizen of one the aforementioned countries or not. The latter groups have to apply for a special permit from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but this is generally forthcoming, provided you're not a notorious criminal.

ReplyAs I said last year property prices continue to rise in Poznan . Maybe not as fast as one would expect but media pessimism keeping the small investors nervous . And since last year Poland has seen the introduction of the Escrow account requirement for developers so extra control and safety to the market . Old protected buildings still over priced so they will continue to sit there til sense prevails . Banks still very tightfisted and nervous from having learned had lessons in the past . But the city will continue to grow so demand for smaller unit still very strong . But polish people wish could be more posative . This is a beautiful city and getting better . Railway station , airport terminal , roads , parks , etc . Compare it to other cities around the world !! It's miles ahead of most cities it's size on any continent . So chin up and buck up and love your own city like I do and I'm a foreigner ( alien whatever) here .
ReplyProperty prices in poznan will continue to rise as the city continues to grow . Like all developing countries there is a big shift from small towns dependent on agriculture . Polish negative thinking is the only obstacle keeping prices down . Look around poznan and see young people driving flash cars that have the same value as apartments . And rentals are yielding better than the most of Europe apart from London of course
