Poland Property Investment:
Is It Hot Or Is It Not?

Have you been reading property investment magazines advertising glossy photos of tropical paradises? They guarantee you’ll make tons of money by investing in those areas.

But before you spend anything, you should consider another part of the world…

…one that can earn you very high returns – Poland!

Are you wondering what makes Poland property such a great investment opportunity?

Well, here are some of the reasons:

  1. Poland has become an economic leader. After joining the EU in 2004, the country has made significant changes both economically and politically.

  2. Poland’s infrastructure continues to improve which has created many large-scale investment opportunities.

  3. Poland offers high rental returns and a low borrowing cost. This is a successful formula for high investment yields!

  4. Poland boasts a young, educated work force. Half of Poles are younger than 34 and more than 2 million are university students.

  5. Poland is experiencing a huge housing shortage. The law of supply and demand certainly applies here.

  6. Poland ranks #1 in Europe for planned investments & #4 for worldwide R&D investments
Poland property investment offers high rewards and low risk if you invest in certain areas.

Do you know where?

Wroclaw and Lodz!

Both cultural cities are growing quickly and enjoying a thriving economy. Wroclaw is also experiencing a huge property shortage, while Lodz investors are benefiting from massive growth and low prices.

To learn about other Poland hot spots, I suggest reading the Poland Resident Market Review 2008.

Now on to the area you should avoid…

Warsaw isn’t nearly as attractive for Poland property investment as it was.

Do you know why?

High rental yields, strong demand and low prices are a thing of the past. They’ve been replaced with lower yields, stronger supply and higher prices.

The construction of many new buildings has decreased property demand. Investors can expect to receive only 4.8-6% by investing in Warsaw.

Here’s another reason:

Foreign investors usually require a Ministry of Internal Affairs permit to buy land in Poland.

This is often not worth the hassle.

Add high rental income taxes and 22% VAT on lease income from residential property and you’ll see why you should invest in other areas of Poland!
