The following thread started well and lost it (just like the property owner)!

Lets be clear - you can buy a property and have the sale annulled if you do not adhere to the permit rules in Poland. I know people who have bought more properties than they are allowed and are "risking it". If you do so there is always a chance the government will uncover the error and reverse the sale but don't go crying about it. 99% of the time it was the buyer who:
a) was being greedy and bought more than they were allowed
b) tried to go cheap and hired a solicitor who did not do the job right

The permit system stops Poland being swamped with foreign buyers who cause speculative bubbles and keeps property in the country in reach of the population. If you ignore it, do it at your own peril - the law is pretty clear.... not corrupt

These two are good links I have found:
mamdom.com/whypolandhow.php - is a simplified version

paiz.gov.pl/index/?id=43ec517d68b6edd3015b3edc9a11367b - is the full monty

Don't cry foul because you don't do your homework or skimped on the legals

I thought the topic stopped because the buyer did not give enough information to discuss. It read a bit like scare mongering. Three years later, taking the house from his Polish wife??. I agree with your b) tried to go cheap and hired a solicitor who did not do the job right.
