In 2024, the highest demand for apartments among foreigners in Poland is coming from Ukrainian citizens, who account for a significant 62.9% of inquiries regarding property purchases. Following closely are citizens of Belarus, making up 12.3% of the inquiries.
However, a surprising new trend is emerging—Indians are increasingly purchasing apartments in Poland. Although Indian citizens represent 4.4% of foreign buyers, their presence on the list marks a significant shift. In 2024, Indians were ranked 9th among foreigners buying properties in Poland, surpassing citizens from countries like Spain, the USA, and the Netherlands, according to the Ministry of Interior and Administration.
This shift from renting to owning marks a significant change in the behavior of the Indian community in Poland. While this may come as a surprise to some, experts point to the increasing number of Indian citizens working in Poland. The Central Statistical Office reports that Indians now form the fourth largest group of foreign workers in the country, and many are transitioning from renting to homeownership.
The growing presence of Indians in Poland’s largest cities suggests that this trend will continue. As the number of Indian tenants rises, more will likely consider purchasing apartments. The data from Metrohouse real estate network confirms this trend, with sales statistics showing increased activity within this group. As we move further into 2025, the number of Indian property buyers in Poland is expected to keep growing.
