The notary fee shown is the statutory maximum — the notary may charge less. The PCC exemption applies to buyers who do not own and have never owned another flat or house.

Key facts
  • A buyer's agent represents you — the goal is a good price and a safe deal, not a quick sale.
  • Asking prices in Wrocław are on average about 14% above transaction prices — there is real room to negotiate.
  • You pay the deposit only after the land register and the seller's documents have been checked.
  • The calculator above shows all costs: PCC, notary, court, translator.

What we do as your buyer's agent

  • Set criteria: budget, district, size, floor, schools, commute.
  • Review resale and new-build offers, including off-market ones.
  • Attend viewings, film video tours, assess condition and price.
  • Check the land register, documents and certificates.
  • Negotiate price and terms, draft the preliminary contract.
  • Book the notary and translator, take over the flat with a handover protocol.

How to tell if the price is right

We compare the price with deals in the Property Price Register for the same area, not with other listings. Listings show sellers' expectations; notarial deeds show real prices. In Wrocław the gap is on average about 14%.

We factor in floor, lift, condition, year built, balcony and parking. You can also estimate a flat in our valuation calculator.

Deposit (zadatek) or advance (zaliczka)

You lose a zadatek if you pull out, and the seller returns double if they break the contract (Art. 394 of the Civil Code). A zaliczka is always refundable. A preliminary contract in notarial form lets you ask a court to enforce the final sale.

A typical deposit in Wrocław is 5–10% of the price.

    FAQ

    Questions and answers

    01How is a buyer's agent different from a regular agent?

    The listing agent has a contract with the seller and wants the sale. A buyer's agent works under a contract with you — searching, checking and negotiating in your interest.

    02How much does your help cost?

    The first consultation is free. The fee for handling the purchase is set in a contract before work starts — you know the amount upfront.

    03Do you help with buying from a developer?

    Yes. We check the developer, the contract and the prospectus, and help you record defects at the technical handover.

    04Can I buy a flat while abroad?

    Yes. Viewings by video, and a representative signs the deed under a notarial power of attorney.

    05How much cash do I need on top of the price?

    On the resale market usually 2–3% of the price (PCC, notary, court), less for a first home. Calculate it precisely on this page.
