Uncertainty ahead

Events
POLAND How do changes in the law affect the attractiveness of investments in commercial real estate and how does the market react to a changing legislative environment? This was one of the issues discussed by the ‘Legal and tax changes vs. the investment market’ panel during the ‘4th Invested Interest – Investment Market Conference’ organised by Eurobuild Conferences on May 22nd.
According to Justyna Bauta-Szostak, a tax adviser and a partner at MDDP (who moderated the discussion) 2017 brought in many legal and tax changes. In the real estate sector, the most important change was probably the restrictions on trading land, which resulted in an increase in prices across the industry. Regulations that have been introduced in 2018, include limitations to Sunday trading, changes to the minimum property tax and capital restrictions that affect the financing of projects. Rados
