Real Estate / Buying a flat in Krakow; prices are still falling? [200]

That was still amazing and crazy as this is not Paris!

Its not just crazy its a Ponzi scheme, based on Poles earnings in the west. Cities like Lublin with the lagest emigration will see their property prices going down slower than Krakow,Warsaw as their property buying population is elsewhere.The denial going on can only last so long, as economics call the shots, As one of the more objective guys on this site said recently something has to give.

Real Estate / Poland: the building boom goes on [28]

Don't be so optipistic, David. Don't look at the present economic situation, but look ahead what may happen in about three years

What would happen if the majority Poles abroad had to return home due to the world recession. It would be back to square one again. Tusk and Co would have to admit that nothing has been achieved and that its all illusion perpetuated by spin.

So the price basically depended on what the average Pole managed to squirrel away or earn abroad.

But there is a gigantic down-turn in the world economy, and those jobs the Poles were making all the cash with are quickly evaporating. I know poles here(Ireland) who are paying their mortgage with social welfare payments because the wages in Poland would not even cover the repayments for their garage. The thing is Poland will have Familys living abroad with their mortgaged home sitting empty as the home wages are futile in relation to the banking reality.

They may end up getting Granny to help with a 60 yr mortgage as they are new to all this and they are getting scammed beyond belief.

He knows that somewhere down the line a desperate enough "burak" is going to come along.

They are desperate but soon or later the prices will eventually reflect the actual wages of the country. The unavailability of property is greatly exaggerated and only helps drive the irrationality of buyers who like you said are new to all this bollsh1t

With the above in mind, please notice a correlation between the sudden availability of mortgage backed credit and the skyrocketing of prices.

I'd say its much less complicated than this,its simply the wages of the buying public are in the west,dont complicate the matter..Also in Ireland we have typical mortgage system since ever and we still made the biggest(property bubble) mess in European history and i can assure you there were no commies here only saints.

You should not talk percentage while discussing a property bubble, you should simplify it to before and after bubble. If you think there is no bubble well then you think too hard the wrong way. If there is a major improvement in the economy in the next 2 years and wages quadruple, well then your prediction of dropping by only 10 or 20% may be true. I dont think you should blame it on the stupidity of the Polish it has to do with external factors light year away from their control. Something will have to give.

Pre-2002

Realistically im talking back to 2005-06 prices not 2002.

So in reality now the average price of a square meter of residential in Poland is effectively determined by how much the bank will lend an average couple of "buraks".

Its determined by how much the worker can afford,banks can asked for only the amount they know they can screw you for,as in what you earn (or depending on where you earn

banks will not pull out of Poland,

why would they??

Comparing the Polish real estate market with the Irish real estate market makes no point, apples and orange

explain??

He is bitter, that's why he keeps posting about it

im not bitter, just like to debate,,i could be wrong, i could be right,however i never attack people on this forum unlike the majority here.

There was no recession in Poland. And you know that very well you silly fool.

The country is f0cked economically and you know it.. How can you have a recession if your country is bordering on poverty..It had nothing to loose ya twat. Im sick of people saying Poland avoided the world recession,such nonsense so did all the African countries avoid the world recession as well.. Stop buying into the spin of Tusk and all those right wing thugs..

My point was "If they returned back to Poland" My point is that it would be very similar to the pre 2005 state. Unemployment etc..

Life / Cannabis / Weed in Poland... How much does marijuana cost per gram and how easy is to get it? [355]

By keeping pot illegal
the governments can maintain social control,allows permission for random urine samples on workers, make huge profits from the high prices. Right wing parties can get elected by saying it a lethal drug. Will stop the mainstream getting stoned and tuning out of consumerist society.

All though the future with peak oil,the collapse of currencies,water shortage etc etc. I think the war on weed will slacken due to economic reasons.

It must be crippling the average pole

Maybe i've got it wrong though, have I?

It is an absolute disaster, for the average Pole, and no, you have not got it wrong,,Go over the threads on this site, if you want a good laugh at the developers trying to cover it up with snark attacks.

So the price of a decent house in Poland is more expensive than one in Westeren Europe, yet the wages are about 4 times lower???

Yes its crazy over there , Here are some fact from wikapedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_property_bubble

The net is full of shype about there being no bubble and all that b0lox. I have warned people already to stay away from english speaking sites, as they are monopolised by developers. Go check it out for yourself forget about this site.

And yes wages are as little as 100 euro a week and even less if on minimum wage..
Check out the house prices on Mandom if you want to see gigantic property bubble denial spin..Also check out wages in Poland for the average worker,

Its my absolute conviction, after studying property bubble in other countries, that the common closing down of web discussions on property, is and has been the objective of the Darwinian developers.

No discussion plays directly into their hands for obvious reason. The (developers) lads on this site, would be dancing with joy and victory if this was also to occur here. They would be delighted if only Silvio Berlusconi style media existed and dissent was blocked. They would much prefer if we talked about topics such as "have Polish people big noses"or "why do women use sex as a weapon".

A victory, no doubt, to the "Chicago Boy".
Discussions should not be closed down, moderators should do their job and defend logical debate against attack of a snark nature. Surely that is the democratic method. If the lads have their way and the property discussions is banned,(section 31 again eh) the people behind this site and their honesty will be under question. Are gold members more than gold members? Surely they should be disciplined and not the general debate.

That said this is a wonderful site, with fantastic knowledge about Poland and the vast majority of members are fine. Just a few bad apples.

Life / What are the things which cause culture shock in Poland? [164]

but this undying attitude of Polska Polska still has the power to shock me.

This book may explain the reasons behind this
"Free to hate" written by Paul Hockenos
I read it a decade ago and it still spring to mind when i hear Slavic nationalism and other forms of ethnocentrism.
Has anyone one here read this book, Seanus maybe?

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

The cross metaphorically represent a tug of war in Polish society between modernism and catholicism. Thats why a decision cant be made. The pro-cross guy on Polish news last night called the anti-cross people "Jews". This guy is a member in my view of the Polish Taliban, A frankenstein element of society created by the church and the brain-damage of the Soviet past. The reason for the silence in Polish politics is because there is no real political divide, only a moral one. The two main parties are right wing one free-market the other catholic.

When the Poles finish this fight against invisible enemies the IMF and Tusk will have sold the the entire country through privatization and all they(the Polish people) will have left is a cross and hoarse throats.

well the extreme element that are opposed to modernism are these fanatics. You miss my point. These Taliban represent a undiluted view of a large section of religious society.

Its metaphorical,it has nothing to do with a lump of wood.

everything is on a continuum, these guys are just the lunatic fringe of something mainstream.When we fought this battle in Ireland very recently it was a bunch of loons called Youth Defense that ran around the place with crucifixes and futus in jar.
