Long-term rental market slowing down
Poland’s long-term rental market is cooling, with fewer new listings and a one-third drop in responses to ads, but demand in the short-term segment remains strong, especially in major cities like Gdańsk, Warsaw and Poznań. Seasonal shifts and the return of holiday rentals partly explain the trends, while flexible work patterns are driving growth in medium-term stays. Rental prices remain stable at around PLN 3,600 per month. Falling interest rates and improved mortgage availability are encouraging some tenants to consider buying instead of renting.
Despite the slowdown, analysts say structural factors – internal migration, student populations and immigration – continue to support rental demand, making residential property an attractive, relatively low-risk investment.
