Law / File complaint against Poland's police [97]

@AdrianK9, Man you think like American style in Poland.All the laws are almost there but the way they are implemented is different or bended with coveneince.I tell you almost 5 years back I was building a warehouse in Siedlce area and had problem with cops for stolen materials and blocking a lane of the highway for construction of entrance.But if you know the system sheet goes very smoothly there.It costs you, but if you play it smartly all can be easily done until unless the other party is STRONGER(in that case is better to settle).

I see you thinking again about why the other party will not declare bankruptcy, because they know when to do it and probably are working with the LOCALS:))) and that you live in America.

@dolnoslask: I agree with you,in small towns things work differently.It always is nice to take some known figures for a vacation etc:)Donate to local teams or organisations. hey in small business these things matter even in states as well.honestly,I always make sure I take cpl boxes of liq filled candies for the staff in municipal offices during Xmas .Not to mention cops would give you PBA cards to avoid minor traffic violations etc.

If a worker in the gmina office gets off her table and walks you to the cashier window and helps you pay the fee......is that called bribing by your brit ,above all Scottish standards?

In all over the civilised world its called courtsey.FOOL.

USA, Canada / Leaving Poland. How can I adapt in the US having no family or friends in this country? [13]

@OP the following are the best universities for the field you are looking for...
college.usatoday.com/the-10-best-american-colleges-for-writers/

I am sure there are certain aids and loans .Usually the health insurance is covered by the uni and also if you are a hard worker you can work on cash on the side and make for your food and board.

But do remember that the student loans never go away till the end of life even if you declare bankruptcy of any kind and they grow with interest.

Adrian man that happens even in usa dont you think?Property in all world is like a baby, gotta nurture it.Property in Poland is still safer with low taxes and cheap maintainence.

I know you have a bad experience but man you didnt deal it right.

Yes, I expected the police to at least charge the people for trespassing and damage of property.

NO man even the cops in usa wont give a flying fug of an abondened property except to catch some junkies to fill there arrest quotas.You are lucky atleast they have records of Ids and number plates for the people to sue from cops record.

It will be a long and tiring process but if you are willing and to spend some moola on it.

Dolno you are right but who will buy and for what price?he said it was worth a mil bucks,and honestly I would try to squeeze him down for 100/150k bucks as is,but he will not sell( I dont blame him).His only bet will be to wait for years and if any desperate soul or an developer comes along or it will deteriorite but still could get same price anyway.So depending on his situation will be better to wait and gamble until he needs funds.

First in 2008/9 Polish properties were at peak.I dont think you couldve got 3/400k for sure(sorry i dont know the property also just guessing)

Buddy about not suing the dump truck driver WHY? he is also a party in that(he got paid to do the work ,he knew what he was doing)Remember in a law suit the more the defendents,merrier it gets:)Incase of judgement someone gotta have some money or collective money still fills your pocket.Sorry but its business as usual:)

Honestly ill even add Police dept on the defendents list.

WRONG, if it's claassed as agricultural land he has lost a lot as lots of infertile/ toxic garbage has been dumped on it.
Again Delphi please don't guide people wrongly. As you have stated in your profile that you are into law & business, records prove you have failed miserably in both,.

@Adrian:please be beware of inexperienced and useless advice and act with your intuition that you feel comfortable with.

Real Estate / Buying property in Poland [41]

Non-Refundable deposit is only in case the buyer is buying out right with cash,if bank is involved,some time period is specified and a clause added "subject to bank loan approval".Deposit is refunded if the bank loan is not procured within the specified period of time.

One can also ask the notary to keep the deposit in that case in his/her escrow.

USA, Canada / Is there anyone in the US who has a Maluch that is legal to be driven? [13]

I have 1976 yellow here in NJ with QQ plates and starts with a choke,they even took it to Chicago in 2001 for polish parade and has won many prizes on Polish festivals at garden state centre here in NJ.I use it occasionally in summer and my kids do too.They hated it when they were young and when i took em to school in that yellow school bus:)

An adult teaching an 14yo means lots oc charges like child endangerment,driving without licence to teach,improper insurance of vehicle and improper plates( without a student driver plates)lol atleast 5 to 10 tickets.

USA, Canada / American family moving to Poland - looking for advice! [44]

Please be careful when you choose the school and carefully run searches on the teachers,because some teachers are in Poland on a secret paid agenda to recruit /influence kids on homosexuality.You can find submissions even on this forum.But google around and people are posting opinions about schools and there teachers on polish language forums and sites.Please be careful what school you send the children and under which teachers supervision.

Real Estate / What do you think of my house in Poland? Pictures and description. [66]

i'd use the property for weddings and parties

Very bright idea for Dom Wyselynia(sorry spellings),but location needs transportation.

Or it could make an ideal stronghold for the Brit bullies tag team living in Poand.

LOL from 27 sq m to this.......or mortgage from a bank in Poland with fixed rate mortgage in Poznan for years......common you are joking right?

lots of bushes there for trolls to hide in.

LOL good idea for easter hunt:D

You won't find many in that condition, at that price and in such an attractive location.

Yup I agree with the first part but second part is debatable.

In the UK, France or Germany these places can be worth a fortune.

YUP! I wouldnt know much about those countries but in states easily worth between 2 to 3 mil bucks,and dont forget the freaking taxes will be around 30 to 50k$ a year plus around 5k for insurance and utilities another 25 to 40k. lol the code inspectors love to visit bathroom & kitchens in a custom home.

You will need only at least 100k a year just to own.Then again its Poland:) one good reason I love Poland for negligeble property taxes,they are changing but will take 25 years to where they are in the states.

As you mentioned rent for 12k,the real price should be between 1.7 to 1.8.
A question..how much are your property taxes on it a year?Does it has sewer or city?Gas and power?
Cpl of yrs back I was looking at a hotel in walbrzych near wroclaw,I knew the lady who remodeled and furnished the 39 room hotel(i think) very tastefully and a huge catering place and wanted 3 mil Zees,but we are not into work mode now,and I think Ibis bought it from her for 2.5.It included all equipment furniture etc.Its right in the centre of the town next to gmina office.
