Real Estate / Poland's apartment prices continue to fall [1844]

. If you bothered to read what Richfilth posted, he has been looking for months and has seen no great appreciable falls in the area he is looking.

the subjective opinion of one person? The facts speak for themselves, did you even bother to read it?

There is a 17% gap between asking price and transaction price in Krakow and Poznan etc
w Poznaniu (-6,6 proc.).
Poznan saw a drop of 6.6 % in just one month (November 2012) and 3.5% drop same month in Wroclaw ,That is gigantic recent drop.

The markets will dictate the prices.

???

. If you remember, the government closed the scheme for "family first"

This scam grant is proof that the market does not dictate in Poland. It's blatant government interference and proof of absolute corruption. An alliance between the bandits in government and the vulture capitalist.

Life / Is Poland a poor country? [578]

Poland is nearly the poorest EU state
Poland is nearly the poorest EU state (photo Piotr Lewandowski/sxc )
According to the Eurostat data, the position of Poland in the EU is not very good. Our country is wealthier than only 3 states, even though 6 months ago we were wealthier than 4 EU states.

The Eurostat has informed that the level of affluence in Poland, i.e. GDP per capita, taking into account the purchasing power parity, amounted to 64% of the EU average.

According to the data the "Rzeczpospolita" daily got hold of, the situation is worse than in Poland only in Latvia (58%), in Romania (49%) and in Bulgaria (46%), even though 6 months ago we were higher in this rank also than Lithuania. Now, however, Lithuania has got 66% of the average.

Poland
At €5,756 per inhabitant, Poland is ranked 28th in Europe, just behind the three Baltic countries and slightly ahead of Turkey. Compared with its western neighbors, Poland still lags behind. Even in the affluent capital district of Warsaw the inhabitants' purchasing power of €9,969 p.a. is approximately €5,400 less than that of people in the rural district of Görlitz, the weakest district in Germany.

In general, the study shows a strong polarization in Poland. Purchasing power in the various districts ranges from €3,626 per inhabitant in the Brzozowski district (Powiat) to €9,969 in Warsaw. In 24 districts, purchasing power is at least 20 percent above the national average. At the same time, 71 districts have purchasing power that is 20 percent below the Polish average.

The most affluent districts in Poland are the capital, Warsaw, its surrounding districts (Pruszkowski, Piaseczyński, Warszawski Zachodni and Grodziski), Gdansk and Sopot, Plock (one of the oldest cities in Poland), Lubinski (in Lower Silesia) and Wroclaw (the fourth largest city in Poland). The district of Krakow is only ranked 22nd among the districts. Lodz, the third largest city, is ranked even lower in 32nd place.

In the poorest urban and rural districts, the inhabitants have only slightly more than €3,000 p.a. at their disposal on average. These regions are mainly situated along the Ukrainian border in the far southeast of Poland. The structural problems of this region impact directly on the purchasing power of its inhabitants. Nonetheless, consumers here have more than twice as much at their disposal as their neighbors in Ukraine, the country with the fourth lowest purchasing power in Europe. In these border districts of Poland, purchasing power per inhabitant ranges from €3,600 to €4,200, whereas it is as low as approximately €1,300 per inhabitant in Ukraine.

A recent report states that Krakow is the most difficult Polish city in which to buy a flat.

The study, conducted by Domy.pl and Open Finance claims that citizens must work approximately 11.5 years in order to come up with enough cash to pay for a three room property (50-square meters).

Despite prices being higher in Warsaw, Dziennik Gazeta Prawna writes that the average monthly salaries (Krakow - PLN 2,514, Warsaw PLN 3,289) mean that that residents of Krakow must wait for longer.

Avalon:
09 August 2012President of Central Statistical Office of Poland has announced that average monthly gross wage and salary in Poland in the second quarter of 2012 was PLN 3 496,82.

According to GUS statistics from 2009 only 34,65% employees had average wages (3.232,07)(1077USD

Apparently not. IE...

Ok its gone up 15 euro a week. And 35% op people earn this.
Central Statistical Office of Poland (GUS) provided in 2009 that 65,35% of Polish wages are below Polish avarage wage and this is a fact.

The most common wage was 2.091,35 (about 700USD)

Only 10% earned more than 5.376,34 PLN (1792 USD)

All data quoted are gross monthly wages.

there were millions of properties standing empty, left by the Poles who had gone to work in the West. You stated that there was a massive over-supply of apartments.

Did I? Millions? No way, Ted.

Who is going to do this Milky? the State? or the investors

I would imagine nobody. Poland will just sweep the rocks under the carpet, unless there is a domino rally. Gong by how the hosing crises is being dealt with at the moment, I would imagine that the government /Developer bandits will just line their own pockets, in the guise of democratic progress, just like the scam grants, they will get the tax payer to finance vulture capitalist. I can't see Poland coming together to deal with the block crises as they are too obsessed with technologies of distraction, and the money just isn't there to finance the sharks but they(bandits) will make millions in the pretense of patching the holes in the rotten bucket.

I accept this definition.

People should read the thread before commenting, there is a lot of repetition on here. I'm not talking about the last few comments.
A lot of concrete apartments are turning 60 years old,hence, would be declared unsafe, in countries that do inspections. So how many Poles live, in what legally may be considered unsafe buildings? 15 million 20 million? People are taking out 35 year mortgages to purchase these concrete"accidents waiting to happen". Only capable of happening in a poor country.

(The HW woman said she intends to return to the UK as she "can't make much money" in Poland, btw.)

7:00AM BST 27 Sep 2012

Official figures show the number of Poles living here rose by 45,000 last year, the first annual rise since the financial crash.

The increase comes despite their homeland's economy growing strongly, while Britain languishes in a double-dip recession with more than 2.5million people out of work.

Experts believe the new wave of immigration is explained by far lower salaries in Eastern Europe.

It will cast renewed doubt on the Home Office's attempts to reduce net migration - the number of people who settle in Britain every year minus those who move abroad - to the "tens of thousands" from the current rate of more than 200,000 annually.

The chart will tell you who should be and who shouldn't be in negative equity.

Poles have very high saving as a percent of income

Have we not shown links in the past, that show Poles to have the lowest disposable income in the EU. The most common wage in Poland Net is a about a hundred Euro a week. A person working in MacDonald in Ireland would have bigger disposable income than the entire wage a Polish teacher. The poorest 25 % in Berlin are richer than the top 25% in Warsaw etc etc

Have you got a link to show that 95% of Poles don't have a mortgage? What percentage of Poles between 25-55yrs of age have mortgage? Also mortgages are relatively new to Poland

Most homeowners in Britain will not have a mortgage on their property within three years, a ground-breaking report revealed yesterday.

With few young couples able to take mortgages out, the profile of homeowners has changed dramatically.

By 2015, more than 50 per cent of homeowners will be older 'mortgage-free' households with a home that they own outright.

Many of those will be people who took a mortgage out in Britian the 1960s, 70s and 80s and are now reaping huge financial rewards.

70% percent of British are mortgage free..

1) What was the percentage price increase (year on year) between 2004 to the peak in 2008.

Tripled in Prices.

In real terms milky's 60% is already here

Can't see how you figured this.

Lets call it a catastrophic collapse in prices.
A bankrupting, fall through the floor.
A disaster for mortgage holders.
A cataclysm of the first order.

sounds good

What is the percentage fall in prices since peak of 2008 (you can allow for inflation).

between 10- 40%

3) How many homes have been repossessed in the past 4 years as a percentage of mortgage holders.

People can easily escape to the West and earn 6 time more and cover their payments with ease, unfortunately people in Ireland have no escape in this matter. Howevwr; Thenews.pl :: News from Poland

Repossessed real estate soars in Poland
15.10.2012 11:20
Over the last two years, the number of properties repossessed by bailiffs in Poland has doubled.

The rise in repossessions echoes an increase in unpaid debts, according to BIG InfoMonitor, a Polish firm specialising in the collection of data about debts.

The firm notes that at the end of September this year, the amount of unpaid debts in Poland had risen to 37 billion zloty (9 billion euro), marking a 3 percent rise in a three month period. According to Big Info Monitor, some 2,2 million Poles are affected.

unemployment rate will go up?

yes

Any advice on the issue would be greatly appreciated :D

Yes, go buy now before prices go up even further. Quick run to the bank.

That has nothing to do with Poland's economical miracle, more to do with exodus of Polish workers to Western and Northern Europe since 2004.

Exactly. The miracle lol.

The answer is already within this thread.

The result has been that unemployment in November could have inched up to 12.9 per cent, up by a net 0.4 per cent over the month, an unusually fast increase, according to preliminary estimates from the labour ministry. That would put the jobless rate at its highest level since 2006.

"The negative tendency on the job market is not only continuing, it is getting stronger. Weak consumer demand and pessimistic predictions mean that employers are keener to cut jobs than to create them," Karolina Sedzimir, an economist with PKO BP bank, tells the Puls Biznesu newspaper. She estimates that unemployment could hit 14.2 per cent by the end of 2013.
