All articles →CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — October 2026
The board barely moved: twenty-one of twenty-nine markets are unchanged, and the three that crossed two points did so because our own readings changed, not because anything happened in those markets. The top is now a three-way tie — Estonia 74.6, Poland 74.3, Slovenia 74.3 — with three tenths of a point between first and third.
CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — September 2026
The Score did not move: no market changed by even half a point, and Estonia edged past Poland into #1 by 0.20 — inside the noise. What moved was the cost of money, and in opposite directions: New Zealand and Korea raised, Israel cut, Canada held, and 12-month Euribor crossed 3%. House prices rose in 25 of the 27 markets we can price for 2025, led by Hungary at +18.3%; only Canada and New Zealand fell.
Q2 2026 Investor Briefing
Our quarterly cross-market briefing: twenty-nine markets, the cost of borrowing as a foreign buyer, cycle position, tax by nationality, and the CASABROVA Score.
Romania Gets the Signal. Poland Stays on Watch.
Why CASABROVA is entering one Eastern European market through its model framework, while waiting for a cleaner entry signal in the other.
After Spain: Where Europe’s Foreign Property Money Goes Next
Spain is now late-cycle and crowded for foreign buyers — so where does Europe's property money rotate next? CASABROVA separates revealed preference, structural quality (the Score) and timing (the Master Index), and maps the case for Romania, Poland and the UAE.
CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — June 2026
June’s briefing is a one-time Score reset: Netherlands, Ireland and Poland cluster at the top; Spain, Portugal and Czechia remain in withdrawal; Greece is at peak; Germany and the UK move toward recovery; Romania enters the Virtual Portfolio.
Market Review — Katowice
Katowice, the anchor city of Poland's Upper Silesian metropolis — a conurbation of 2 million people — has undergone a remarkable transformation from coal-mining center to modern services hub. The Katowice Special Economic Zone hosts over 400 companies, while the city's new cultural district has attracted international attention and young professionals.
Property prices starting from €1,200/m² make Katowice one of Poland's most affordable major cities, yet rental yields of 6–8% rival or exceed more expensive markets. The metropolitan area's sheer population density ensures a deep tenant pool rarely found in secondary cities.
Major infrastructure projects, including a high-speed rail link to Warsaw and an expanded airport, promise to further enhance connectivity and property values. For yield-focused investors, Katowice offers the rare combination of rock-bottom entry prices with metropolitan-grade rental demand.
