In September 2020, the largest number of apartment sales announcements were in Warsaw, Krakow, and Gdansk. The average rates dictated in these three cities clearly bounced off the rest. It is also the only three Polish cities where the average bid price exceeded or approached the barrier of PLN 10,000 / sq. m.
Looking at the average offer prices in current and former provincial cities, the division into two-speed markets is clear. In the capitals of the current sixteen provinces, along with higher rates, offers to go hand in hand with smaller rate increases in annual and biennial terms.
In cities that lost their status as provincial capitals in 1999, rates are cut three times, but over the past year, much more.
