Building plot prices 2026

A typical building plot in Poland (1,150 m²) costs PLN 160,000, or PLN 130/m² (median of 23,515 transactions transactions over the 12 months until January 2026). Half of the transactions ranged from PLN 75 to PLN 250/m², so there is a wide variation between cheaper and more expensive locations.

The median for the last three months (November 2025 - January 2026) was 5.9% higher than than in the same months a year earlier. We calculate the change across 172 counties (powiats) that have provided complete data since 2022, so it is not distorted by new counties joining the register.

An undeveloped plot of land designated for residential development in the local zoning plan, with an area of 300 to 5000 m², sold in its entirety on the open market. We omit plots without a local zoning plan because the register does not always indicate whether planning permission has been granted. Plots with an issued planning conditions decision are shown separately.

Location (distance from the city, commute to work and schools), intended use and local development plan provisions (type of development, height, building footprint), access to utilities (electricity, water, sewerage, gas) and a public road. The plot's shape and width, terrain, ground conditions and surroundings, such as power lines or disruptive industrial facilities, also matter.

When the seller is a private individual, the buyer pays 2% tax on civil-law transactions (PCC) based on the market value. When the seller is a VAT-registered company, the sale of building land is subject to 23% VAT, included in the price, and PCC does not apply. Other costs include the notary's fee with VAT, the court fee for an entry in the land and mortgage register (PLN 200 for registering ownership), followed by the cost of utility connections.

From the Property Price Register (RCN, Polish official register of real-estate transactions), maintained by county authorities and city mayors based on notarial deeds, with data made available by the Head Office of Geodesy and Cartography. We use data from 380 counties and city registers. These are contract prices, not asking prices, and exclude details of the parties to the transactions.

The asking price is the amount in the listing that the seller would like to receive. The transaction price is the amount recorded in the notarial deed, for which the property actually changed hands. Listing prices can be higher due to room for negotiation and properties that do not sell, so we show transaction prices only, as a median: half of the transactions were cheaper and half were more expensive.

Every month, we retrieve new transactions from the register and recalculate all figures (last updated 5 October 2026). County offices enter notarial deeds in the register with a delay, so the latest complete month in the data is January 2026.

Every locality with transactions in the register, including every village, has its own page with medians and recent transactions for flats, houses, plots of land, agricultural land, garages and commercial premises; you can find it using the portal search.
