Poland debt, bond & real‑estate trends

Overview

Poland’s real estate and financial sectors continue to evolve through mid-2026. In the housing market, developers aim to launch 4,350–4,550 units this year, with approximately half located in Warsaw. Long-term projections suggest developers intend to sell more than 4,500 homes annually by 2028, supported by projects such as a public-private redevelopment at the former Gdańsk shipyard. To manage competition and sales pace, developers like Develia, Grupo Lar Polska, and Atal are employing flexible pricing, individual negotiations, and promotional amenities.

By July 2026, the real estate market showed unexpected summer resilience, defying typical seasonal slowdowns. Data from Otodom indicates that developers in seven major markets, including Warsaw, Kraków, and Wrocław, sold over 4,400 new apartments in July. This follows a strong first half of the year, with some companies like Atal reporting over 100% year-on-year growth in contracts. While demand rises, secondary market supply has decreased in cities like Warsaw, Wrocław, and Łódź, contributing to slight price increases for existing homes. In regions such as Piotrków Trybunalski, new apartments cost approximately 38% more than used ones.

Commercial real estate is seeing a significant rise in domestic investment. The share of transaction value from Polish capital is expected to reach 20% by 2026, with total investment volume projected at €6 billion.

In the financial sector, the government has approved the Personal Investment Accounts (OKI) project, set to launch on January 1, 2027. Market liquidity is further supported by TFI PZU, which has expanded its ETF suite by listing two new funds on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. These funds track long-duration, fixed-coupon sovereign bonds and variable-rate government bonds using physical replication. TFI PZU has waived management fees for both products through the end of 2026.
