POLAND PROPERTY - BUYING PROCESS

Buying Polish Property on the primary market (offplan)

Choose your apartment
Engage lawyer (who will arrange the contracts and perform checks)
Pay legal fees
Sign reservation contract and pay reservation monies (sometimes this step is missed out goes straight to step 5)
Sign Future Purchase contract and pay deposit monies (minus reservation monies). It is important to have this notarised in the land registry.
Around 4-6months before completion arrange a mortgage (if required)
Sign Purchase contract (with lawyers help) and pay remaining monies (perhaps with mortgage help)

Buying Polish Property on the secondary market (resale)

The process is broadly similar to the above, except that there is usually only a reservation contract and no future purchase contract.
Also, if you require a mortgage you may need to perform the process more quickly (eg within 2 months).
