L'environnement

En plus de son attrait captivant en tant que destination de vacances, La Suisse Suisse est une destination idéale pour les familles. Le pays a toujours connu une existence paisible en tant que nation indépendante, avec un faible taux de criminalité, une stabilité politique, juridique et économique, un secteur financier très sophistiqué, des services culturels et, bien sûr, éducatifs.

Les zones privilégiées se situent principalement autour des grandes villes suisses, bien que les zones plus reculées de la campagne offrent également une qualité de vie très élevée.

Why live in
Switzerland?

As we can see Switzerland as many perks and every reason for foreign investment, as mentioned above and below, Switzerland is open to investment, with great benefits regarding living conditions and overall accessibility of purchasing the real estate.

Il existe une demande croissante de la part des particuliers et des entreprises désireux d'acquérir un bien immobilier en Suisse. En conséquence, le marché immobilier suisse a connu une croissance régulière et jouit d'une certaine stabilité.

Swiss real estate is a very safe investment as the supply of new second houses is always tightly controlled and new regulations prohibit the construction of future second houses. Prices don’t go up dramatically, and they don’t crash in the event of a problem.

Many investors were attracted to Zurich, being the country’s financial centre. It offers quality lives with its wide-ranging cultural activities, well-established public transport network, and an outstanding health system. Other amazing Swiss real estate spots to focus on include the urban metropolitan areas of Geneva, Basel, Lausanne, Berne and their conurbations. They are all attracting many high net worth investors.

Nothing creates more controversy in the world of investments than real estate. There are challenges to buying Swiss real estate. Non-residents who plan on purchasing a holiday home in tourist spots for residential purposes will have to first get an approval from the cantonal authorities. There are additional restrictions after the approval, like the investable amount and the size of the property you can buy. Consequently, wealthy foreign investors are usually put off by these obstacles. This is where Edelweiss Panorama International will help you. Particularly for residential real estate, we can offer you properties accessible to foreigners of all nationalities, either in the mountains or by the lake.

Types of real estate:

When buying real estate, not all fall under the category of residential, there are many other types, such as the ones mentioned below. Consequently, it varies depending on the buyers goal and though and ideas for the future and what type of investment they want to do.

Property Restrictions for Foreigners:

There are restrictions imposed on the buying of real estate at a national level, at a regional level and local level, therefore depending on each canton and commune the restrictions limit the location, and the type of property foreigners may buy.
Foreigners residing outside Switzerland (without a Swiss residence permit) can only purchase residential real estate in tourist areas. In cities such as Geneva, Basel and Zurich, in which are major residential areas, cannot be purchased. Foreigners can buy chalets and apartments in most Swiss ski areas and lakes. These are considered second homes (holiday apartments).

However, you can also buy real estate in Switzerland if:

In either case, you have the same right to buy real estate as a Swiss citizen. You can buy investment property, villas, commercial facilities, and main residences. If you have a Swiss B permit you can buy real estate only for living.

Buying Real Estate:

Although real estate costs are high, Switzerland is one of the cheapest places to buy real estate in Europe in terms of transaction costs. Acquisition costs vary depending on the property. According to The Swiss Federal Statistical Office as of 2019; 75,323 vacant residential properties were reported in Switzerland, which represented 1.66% of the housing stock. Although Swiss citizens make up about 85% of all purchasers, foreign investment is still popular for investments from the United Kingdom, Canada, Russia, Belgium, France, and Germany. Consequently, there is still space for foreign investment in the market, which is encouraging for outside investments.

Can foreigners buy multiple real estate in Switzerland?
