Real Estate / Real estate in poland - how an average Pole can afford such prices? [78]

wujek thanks for your reply, I take issue with your comment that the average wage in poland is 2400zl.....what utter rubbish............more like 1200zl, the big fish are earning more ripping off polish people....taking out a loan .....sure.....how much ? what interest rates?.............not forgetting the high cost of living............sorry get your facts right. lef

I don't agree with your comments, poland by world standards is a poor country, with little commercial natural resources, I beg to differ about what the average person in poland earns, from my understanding most poles live from pay packet to pay packet with little left over, the prices of all products continue to rise, it becomes a impossible situation for the average pole to borrow big money from some swiss bank, I can only warn poles to be very carefull, as when the economic situation gets worse, those people who borrowed will loose all. I can only stress that the current prices of home is by far too high and when thinks settle down the prices will be reduced by half. ( I read that Moscow is the most expensive place to live- what a joke)

:)In reply to wujek, I would like to say "get your hand off it" and relax, because if one asks a question dosn't mean he is anti polish, You should be the first person to be aware of the difficult conditions facing day to day living in poland, Poles have unforfortunately a complex when it comes to being criticized and if fact are jealous if somebody has more than themselves (this is the product of the communist system).. my original question was a fair question to ask and your reply is that of a business man. Your smart arse and insulting comments towards Australia does you no good, please do not forget that Australia was always loyal and supportive of the Polish people in its struggle against communism and gave a lot of financial aid.

The poles are a great people and can be proud of their heritage, I belieive the tempo of the current move to a capitalist system is not good for the average pole. The new generation young pole who sets himself in this way of life ie money money money, will have destroyed everything good that has been given to him by his forefathers.

Let me assure you that there is plenty of soap and water in Australia as there are good people who want justice and a good way of life for the polish people
