The Housing Market in Warsaw According to the Mediators of the Estate Agencies

Throughout the whole of post-war Polish history, housing remained an important and unsolved socio-economic problem. From 1979 onwards we have observed a continuous decrease in the number of new flats produced and an expansion of the waiting list for new housing cooperatives. The waiting period for new flats became a political question during the 1980 crisis and again in 1989, during the round table negotiations between the government and solidarity.
