PLN 2,500 the going rate for an apartment in Poland [210]
What makes you think "they" are not? show me a shred of evidence.
Just take a peek at a few sites where they offer appartments in Poland.
There are top end rentals in every city centre, in every country, in the whole world, where it is beyond the average local to afford, why should Poland be any different?
I'm not saying it should be different. I'm saying there should be more affordable appartments for people with a low or average income, simply because there are more people with a low or average income than there are people which convex described. Right now, there are more expensive appartments than there are buyers. (Not only in Poland, but in all of Europe.) How come? Just explain that to me, since I'm so silly..
Domiporta has plenty of places that are much cheaper.
Plenty? In comparison to..?
Already been there. Didn't like it. Don't have a family because I want to get my ducks in a row before diving into that choice.
Me neither, but you know, sometimes people lose their jobs or situations change. You can't always predict the future. A manager today, might be unemployed tomorrow.
Think about size. If you want something nicer, it costs more money, ergo, you need a better job.
I wonder what would happen if everyone would have to find a better job if housing prices keep increasing like they are now, but when their wages aren't. You don't have to point out the obvious, because I get that. Don't worry. I'm talking about something else and you know it.
My girlfriend works for the exact same wages as people in Poland do. As does her mother, as do most of my friends.
Yes, but you don't.
Or for people that know how to read a newspaper.
Smart people don't read newspapers.
In the middle of the city, furnished, bills paid, with no commission. A Ferrari is just a car. People that can afford it can justify it.
Yes, but what if someone decides it would be fun to offer a Ferrari to everyone, knowing that most people can't afford one?
Yea, so? It shouldn't be a surprise for someone studying psychology that it will be extremely difficult to get a job, and even more difficult to get a good job.
Well, I'd call 6000 € a month a very good job. (But ofcourse I'm talking to Tony Stark here.)
Thanks for that little talk. I'll make my own decisions, as will people that don't want to tie themselves down to even more expensive mortgages.
You're right, and that's exactly why there are a lot of rich people who are clogging up the lower end of the housing market, which clearly was intended for people with average or low income. If you can afford something better, you should move your rich ass and allow someone else to live on his or her own. Or build more affordable appartments for those people. Simple.
There are a couple here making decent money. Very decent money when you look at the minimum wage.
I believe you, but I know a few electricians, plumbers etc. who run their own business.
There are affordable places to rent for people who have decided to be part of the working class.
Yes, there are, but not enough. For every affordable place there are a few dozens of people out there who are on a waiting list. (Sometimes hundreds.) How come?
I pay enough to cover this apartment and raise a family, even with all the money that the government will sap from that persons salary to pay for subsidized housing.
Well, if everyone agreed working class people should have a higher income, then the government wouldn't have to subsidize housing anymore. So maybe that's something to think about? (Yes, I know, I'm annoying.)
Especially when you keep in mind that working class salaries have been frozen or actually decreased over the last three decades, while middle/upper class salaries have increased by 60% over the last three decades.
