Hi
I'm Polish but have lived outside of PL for the past 20 years. My wife recently started talking about moving back to Poland (Wroclaw is where we used to live). I know absolutely nothing about purchasing or building a property in Poland. I was only 14 when I left the country. Can somebody suggest how to look for property (besides Domy on Wyborcza and Onet). How can I research neighborhoods in terms of schools, transportation, etc?
We were thinking of getting something in Wroclaw or not too far from the city. Small place of about 130 sq. meters. What's the price range we should be looking at. We do have a budget in mind, but obviously the better deal we get the better it would be for us. Also when it comes to loans is it possible to obtain a mortgage with a fixed rate like it is in the United States? Has anyone taken a loan from US bank with fixed APR financing for a property in Poland or anywhere else in Europe? Is it even possible?
Thank for your help.
