Real estate management is a system. It consists of relations, procedures and processes occurring between entities and subjects at real estate market. It is helpful in proper decision-making based on information about the entities (and their needs) and the state of a property. Real estate management is different in various countries.

The case study research was carried out on three chosen public real estate management systems: German, Polish and Swiss. The paper presents some basic information about public real estate management in analysed countries. The authors conducted an analysis of the systems using some indicators and geo-spatial analysis which was performed with use of GIS tools. It gives the opportunity to estimate and show differences and similarities between analysed systems. The paper shows that there is a possibility to use some international indicators to compare public real estate management systems. So there is still a need to improve these systems more and more.
