Is it worth buying a flat for renovation in Chorzów?

Chorzów is a city near Katowice and Bytom that is hugely popular among the residents of Upper Silesia. This is thanks to the variety of residential properties, the excellent location, the well-developed road network and the modest property prices. We will try to answer the question of whether it is worth buying a flat for renovation in Chorzów.

What budget can you allocate to buying a property?

This is a question to ask yourself before you start looking for the ideal property. Premises that need renovation work are often put on the market at a much more favourable price, even taking a complete rebuild into account. Flats for renovation in Chorzów are a great solution for people with limited means, for those who have their own vision for the interiors, for creative types, and for those who have an alternative place to live while the renovation work is under way. Bear in mind that renovated premises are often altered and renovated again by new owners. So why pay twice over?

Secondary or primary market?

Upper Silesia is known above all for its atmospheric tenement buildings. Of course, there are also estates of multi-storey blocks here, and investors are choosing to build new properties. Premises in developer's standard (stan deweloperski) also need furnishing, painting and other changes. It is, however, a solution increasingly chosen by young Poles. They go for originality, but also for reliability, convenience and comfort. Young people value such conveniences as a large terrace or an underground car park. A flat in developer's standard lets us fit it out however we like, while we avoid work on, for example, heating, plumbing and wiring, because these have already been done. New flats in Chorzów are located in various districts and estates.
