Currently, we have different priorities and we choose the space in which we live more consciously. Silence, privacy and green surroundings count. What’s more, we are moving out of the city, looking – not as it has been so far – for savings or prestige in the most fashionable locations near Warsaw, but above all by putting life needs first.

Change of current motivations

Villa for sale,  Konstancin-Jeziorna, 750 m2, 9 rooms

Varsovians moved outside the capital from the beginning of the ’90s. Simply put, they could be divided into two categories: those who built themselves large luxurious mansions in locations such as Konstancin-Jeziorna, and those who chose the suburbs for financial reasons. The latter could afford a house with a garden at a price similar or lower than the cost of a small apartment in the central districts of Warsaw.

From the beginning of the pandemic, however, we see a third group of customers crystallizing. They are looking for high-quality, modern real estate that will be perfectly adapted to their current needs. This trend is likely to continue and affect the future of the entire market. For these people, peace and quiet are important, as well as comfort and proximity to nature. This group of clients is able to pay from 1.5 to 3 million PLN for a comfortable house in Milanówek, Magdalenka, Izabelin or Podkowa Leśna.

New realities – new quality of life

Several factors influence the current situation. Many people have switched to remote work, discovering its advantages over time. It turned out that it can be as efficient as working in an office. Both employees and employers have found out about it.

– The pandemic initiated a revolution on the labor market. Until now, daily car trips to work were an additional price to pay to enjoy life in a comfortable suburban location. At the moment of changing the model of work, this factor ceased to be so important. Currently, most companies have opened up to the hybrid work model or 100 percent. remote, and everything indicates that this mode of work will stay with us for a longer time

House for sale, Bielawa, 550 m2, 6 rooms

– Our clients, often business owners, commute to Warsaw, e.g. twice a week, and the rest of the time they prefer to work in the most convenient conditions possible. An additional incentive to choose a house near the city is better and better access from each side – Warsaw is better connected every year and even despite the enormous traffic, you do not have to spend hours in traffic jams

– comments the founder of Lions Estate and an expert on the luxury real estate market.

Moreover, by spending much more time locked in our apartments, we realized that the size of the apartment did not meet our new needs. There was a need to expand the sphere of life – to have your own terrace or garden. A place separated from the public space, giving the possibility of communing with nature.
