Falling interest rates, soaring housing prices, and growing demand for flexibility are creating fertile ground for the rapid growth of Poland’s institutional rental sector. In this interview, Elżbieta Chmiel, Member of the Management Board at PFR Nieruchomości, highlights who the main tenants of PRS are, how well-designed projects can meet both residents’ and investors’ needs, and why prefabrication and public–private partnerships are key to delivering modern, affordable housing across the country.

PFR Nieruchomości will debut in Szczecin with a large rental project, located on 6 hectares owned by PKP (Polish State Railways). It will comprise 9 buildings, 800 flats, recreational space and amenities.
