Poland's Military Property Agency (AMW) is offering apartments for sale across the country, with some starting prices below 80,000 Polish zloty (approximately $19,500 USD). These properties, often referred to as "price gems," are available through auctions scheduled for August, September, and October 2026.
The cheapest available property is a 38.23 square meter apartment in Mirosลawiec, listed at a starting price of 78,000 zloty. Located on the second floor of a 1962 building, it includes a room with a balcony, kitchen, hallway, bathroom, and a large cellar. Other locations like Leลna and Wฤgrzce near Krakow also feature properties with starting bids under 100,000 zloty.
However, potential buyers must consider the condition of these affordable units. Many require extensive renovations, and some lack essential amenities. For instance, a property in Wฤgrzce with a starting bid of 89,000 zloty for nearly 12 square meters has no bathroom or central heating and is considered more suitable for office space than residential use.
The real estate market in Poland's major cities presents a stark contrast. In Poznan, a 22.90 square meter apartment has a starting price of 262,000 zloty. Warsaw records the highest prices per square meter, with a small studio apartment (20.76 square meters) in the city center listed for 466,000 zloty, equating to approximately 22,450 zloty per square meter. Purchasing from AMW involves auction procedures, including bidding above the reserve price and paying a deposit, which differs from standard secondary market transactions.
