Poznan is perhaps one of Poland's less familiar property hotspots. And yet this city of just over half a million offers one of the most exciting property investment locations in Poland.

The property market represents a basement level opportunity, BUT, crucially, it has just begun its initial turbo-charged growth phase....

Mariola and Max Gronau are a married couple who have spent the last three years working full time in the property investment business, much of it travelling in Poland and researching the market there.

Mariola is Polish and so she, in particular, is able to apply an innate understanding of the market - to go behind the cold statistics and understand the bigger trends that drive it.

The couple have independently built a substantial portfolio in the CEE markets, which they manage in addition to their holdings in the UK.
