Real Estate / What do you pay in rent/mortgage in Poland? [144]

Im very lucky that I have been offered 2 jobs in Kalisz already :) and my boyfriend will also get a good job I am sure - hes fluent in english which helps...and kalisz doesn't have an expat community (that I know of) - I have been there 10 time and have only ever met 1 other native english speaker and he was a canadian :) If we earn 5000zl a month then thats a very good wage for us :) Im super happy to be moving.

My boyfriend has a very close family and some of them have built there own houses so we use there advice also....I just can't wait to start our new life!! sorry if this is off topic.
