I know there are lots of threads on Krakow but I can't find anything on the student letting scene..

Does anyone have any advice / experience on buying properties to let to students in Krakow? I hear the student demand is very high there.

Specifically:
1. What areas of Krakow best for renting to students?
2. How much should I expect to pay?
3. Are these apartments usually kitted out or should I have to plan for fit-out?
4. What rents can I expect (what's the rental ceiling for students).
5. Are they likely to wreck the place?!!

And....bad idea or good idea to consider this? I'm only in the early stages of considering, will visit in Spring (when it warms up :) )

Thanks!

Do not know anything about Krakow student market but here is food for thought:

Krakow has 183,000 students and property costs on average 6,275 per m2; Poznan has 127,000 students and property costs 4,098 per m2. So while Krakow has 44% more students than Poznan, property is 53% more expensive in Krakow tham Poznan. Therefore, don't put all your Polish eggs in one basket; check out other cities as well when you visit in the spring.

Of course I have a vested interest in Poznan but the stats are valid.
