Krakow Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Krakow

Kraków blends a historic core with a major academic and business base, making it one of Poland’s most recognisable urban markets. Its mix of heritage districts, expanding services and steady city life gives apartments a broad appeal across central and outer neighbourhoods.

September 2026 brings the clearest signal: prices are still edging higher, but income has not moved with them. The average apartment sale price reached 810,270 zł, while the average price per square metre rose to 15,950 zł, up 1.2% month on month and 1.7% year on year. That steady rise sits alongside a yield of 5.03%, suggesting investors are facing a tighter return profile even as values continue to firm.

The rental side adds to that tension. Average rent is 3,000 zł, unchanged from the previous month, and down 6.3% year on year. With sale prices slightly higher and rents softer over the annual comparison, the investment maths looks more restrained than a year ago. For apartment buyers, Kraków in September 2026 remains a market where capital values are still moving, but rental growth is not keeping pace, leaving yields to do more of the work.
