New properties in Katowice – what is worth investing in?
Text from 2019. Laws, rates and prices may have changed since then. Ask an agent
Katowice is not only tenement houses and tower blocks that are several decades old. It also has flats and apartments that are only a few to a dozen or so years old. What is more – developers are still building new properties in this city. Which districts are worth your attention in this context?
New flats among greenery
One of the places where new flats in Katowice are being built is the Paderewskiego estate and the area around Muchowiec. From an investor's point of view, the newly built properties in this area are interesting because they are going up near green areas. The presence of ponds, the proximity of a forest, recreational areas – these are strong assets that make a later sale easier. This will be especially important if the investor intends to market the flats to families.
Or perhaps Ligota?
New flats are also being built in this district – traditionally associated with lower prices than in the city centre. Does this mean an investment in this area is worse? Not at all. With developer flats you can certainly achieve attractive prices when letting or reselling to subsequent owners.
What attracts people to the new flats in Ligota is above all the quiet surroundings. It is decidedly quieter here than in the city centre, or on the Paderewskiego and Koszutka estates. It is therefore an ideal area for people looking for a flat in a place where they can unwind.

The western part of the city
Although the areas between Katowice and Chorzów are often overlooked when searching for property, they are nevertheless worth considering. Besides the areas that already have a long history, there are places here where new flats are being built.
What sets them apart, and why is it worth taking an interest in an investment right here? Mainly the fact that these properties are an ideal place for young people. This is true both in terms of standards matching their expectations and in terms of location.
The area is very well connected with the centre. At the same time, it is easy to get from here to other cities of the region, such as Chorzów, Bytom or Zabrze. This is an important asset, as it makes commuting to work in various parts of the Silesian conurbation easier.
