The argument isn't that green buildings are virtuous. It's that inefficient buildings are becoming measurably more expensive to own, operate, and finance.

As the Polish residential market moves from volatility toward a more balanced phase, developers are recalibrating supply, financing strategies and product positioning. In this interview, Carlos de León, General Manager at Acciona Nieruchomości, explains why 2026 could mark a period of mature stabilisation rather than rapid growth, which segments and locations are set to outperform, and how sustainability, financing discipline and regulatory reform will shape the next phase of residential development in Poland.
