Long-term tenancy and property purchase
House-hunting in Poland as a foreigner is a minefield: tenancy without meldunek, grey contracts, owner-squatting risks, hidden 800 PLN/month admin fees, refusals for credit history. LegalWin sources housing on your budget, vets KW (land register), negotiates in Polish, attends the notary on purchase. We work in Warsaw, Wrocław, Krakow, Gdansk, Poznań.
