WEBINAR: Investing in Polish Real Estate: Tax, Legal and Structuring Strategies for Foreign Investors

Poland now stands out as Europe’s next big real estate opportunity with yields outpacing other places in Europe.

Why is it beneficial to invest in real estate in Poland?
The answer is simple: investing in Poland offers high rental yields, strong capital appreciation, and a stable economic environment at prices that are still lower than in Western Europe.

Poland is the EU and NATO member with a stable democratic framework, transparent legal system and investor-friendly regulations.

The demand for long-term residential rentals, particularly in Warsaw, Kraków, and Gdańsk, is increasing and the prospects are good. Institutional investors and international funds are already increasing allocations to Poland, particularly in PRS, logistics and student housing.
