Record demand: Ukrainians bought over 9,000 apartments in Poland in 2025.
Housing demand in Poland
According to Novyny.live: Interest in Polish real estate among foreign buyers—particularly Ukrainians—continues to climb. In 2025, foreigners purchased more than 17,700 apartments, with Ukrainians accounting for roughly 9,300 of those units. This surge reflects a strong appetite for the Polish property market from overseas investors, a trend that accelerated following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
According to the data, the number of transactions involving international buyers has increased approximately fivefold over the past decade. Ukrainian nationals, the largest group of purchasers, acquired about 9,300 apartments, representing nearly 548,000 square meters of real estate. Belarusian citizens came in second, buying around 2,700 apartments—approximately 192,000 square meters of housing.
Foreign investors
Notably, buyers from other countries such as India, Turkey, and the Czech Republic have also been actively investing in Polish real estate. Indian nationals purchased properties totaling roughly 16,000 square meters, while Turkish and Czech buyers each acquired about 10,000 square meters of housing in 2025. These figures underscore a growing international interest in Poland's housing market, signaling positive economic trends and the country's investment appeal.
The rising demand for housing in Poland, particularly among Ukrainians, can be linked to the crisis conditions in Ukraine and the search for safe places to live. Sharing a border with Ukraine, Poland has become a natural choice for many Ukrainians seeking new opportunities for life and work. This trend also indicates that Poland's real estate market remains attractive to investors from other nations, which could positively influence the broader regional economic development.
