New apartment or apartment from the secondary market - what to choose in Masuria?
Masuria is rapidly attracting people seeking private real estate in Masuria – a place for a vacation, a “second home” or a place to invest. Among these searchers are also those planning to relocate to the Land of a Thousand Lakes. The region is developing dynamically, and towns like Mrągowo are among the most desirable locations.
People planning to buy a property in Masuria face a choice: a new apartment from a developer or offers on the secondary market?
The secondary market in Masuria - the historic charm of architecture
Apartments on the resale market often offer attractive locations in older parts of cities and are priced favorably. However, it’s important to thoroughly inspect the property before purchasing.
The advantages of the resale market include:
- Accessibility – the property is usually available for immediate occupancy.
- Extensive infrastructure in the immediate vicinity (shops, bus stops, schools, preschools, and services).
The disadvantages of the resale market include:
- Potentially high renovation costs and unforeseen defects.
- Lower energy efficiency than on the primary market.
- PCC tax.
- Lack of access to modern amenities, such as an elevator.
- Inability to modify the layout during the construction phase.
A new apartment in Masuria from the primary market - the strengths of modern construction

When purchasing, it’s also worth considering the portfolio of investments in the Land of a Thousand Lakes. By choosing Budextan, you can be assured of high quality, as we have over 30 years of experience in the local market.
The advantages of an apartment or flat from the primary market include:
- No PCC tax on purchase
- 5-year developer warranty and guarantee
- Lower operating costs (high energy efficiency of the property).
- Well-thought-out amenities: balconies, terraces, gardens, underground garages, elevators.
- Attractive spatial layouts: mezzanines, large glazing.
The disadvantages of an apartment or flat from the primary market include:
- Infrastructure currently under construction or planned in the immediate vicinity
- Less access to developments in older parts of cities.
By purchasing directly from a developer, you can also modify the layout of the flat or flat before the work is completed. A turnkey purchase option is also available, allowing for better cost control and enabling largely remote implementation.

What to choose - a property from the secondary or primary market?
The secondary market has its advantages, but new properties typically offer greater flexibility in terms of modifications upon purchase. If frequent visits to the development are not possible, purchasing from the primary market may be a much more convenient option.
The choice depends on the investor’s individual preferences, but it’s worth considering the advantages of each option.
