In Poland, the institutional rental housing sector (PRS) has reached a new peak. According to CBRE data published on April 1, 2026, a total of 5,821 PRS units were delivered to the market in 2025, marking a record for the country. At the same time, current market dynamics suggest that 2026 may reach a comparable level of new supply.

📊 The record itself is less important than what stands behind it. By the end of 2025:

— total PRS supply exceeded 28,500 units
— around 87% of units were already leased
— vacancy stood at just ≈3.5%

This indicates that the market is not only growing, but doing so at near-full occupancy. New supply is being absorbed quickly by demand.

The main driver behind this growth is the changing affordability of homeownership. Following a period of low interest rates and government support, the for-sale market has cooled, and part of the demand has shifted toward rental housing. This has created a stable foundation for the expansion of the PRS sector.

🏗 PRS in Poland is increasingly developing as a distinct asset class:

— projects are being developed on commercial land
— developers are working directly with institutional investors
— dedicated rental platforms are emerging instead of one-off projects

📈 This indicates that the market is becoming more structured and scalable. The current environment offers a relatively rare combination:

— record levels of new supply
— high occupancy rates
— устойчивый спрос на аренду;
— continued growth expected in 2026

In practice, this suggests that Poland is establishing itself as one of the key rental housing markets in Central and Eastern Europe.
