Katowice Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Katowice

Katowice, the capital of Śląskie voivodeship, combines a strong regional business base with a compact urban core and a growing mix of services, culture, and housing stock. For investors, it remains a city where the apartment market can be read through both price trends and rental income.

September 2026 brings the clearest signal from prices: sales values are still edging higher, while rents are not keeping pace. The average apartment sale price stands at 594,000 zł, up 2.1% year over year, and the average price per square metre is 11,930 zł, which is up 6.6% over the same period. That points to a market where ownership costs have advanced faster than rental income, tightening the investment case even as nominal prices continue to firm.

The rental side is softer. Average rent is 2,200 zł, down 3.9% year over year and unchanged month over month. That stability in September 2026 follows a slight monthly dip in the average m2 price, down 0.2%, suggesting a pause rather than a broad correction. With the current yield at 5.18%, Katowice still offers a measurable return, but the spread between rising purchase costs and weaker rents is the month’s main tension.
