Editorial: Contemporary regulatory and investment challenges in real estate
Abstract
This issue of World of Real Estate Journal examines the multifaceted dynamics shaping the contemporary Polish real estate market. Contributions explore investment risks in public procurement projects, spatial and demographic factors influencing housing market attractiveness, the potential and limitations of green covered bonds, and the impact of IFRS 16 lease capitalisation on financial reporting. Collectively, the articles highlight the interconnected roles of risk management, spatial development, sustainability, and regulatory change in driving investment decisions and market outcomes. The findings offer practical insights for researchers, policymakers, and industry practitioners navigating Poland’s evolving real estate landscape.
