How many apartments did Ukrainians buy in Poland: the latest data


It is noted that among foreign buyers of real estate in Poland, Ukrainians rank first in terms of number. Almost half of all sold residential premises for foreigners were purchased by Ukrainian citizens.


However, the area of Ukrainian apartments is slightly smaller than that of other foreigners.


Last year, foreign buyers purchased more than 14 thousand apartments in Poland in total. Ukrainians were the most active among them. According to the Money.pl portal, Ukrainian citizens bought about 7 thousand residential units, which is 10% more than in 2022.


“In 2023, Ukrainians purchased more than 7.7 thousand real estate units in Poland without the need to obtain a special permit. However, this number includes not only apartments, but also garages and commercial premises. Of the above 7.7 thousand real estate objects, independent residential premises account for approximately 7.1 thousand units,” the article says.

• Poznan,

• Gozów Wielkopolski,

Analysts note that Ukrainians mostly bought smaller apartments compared to other foreigners.
