Zurich surpasses Geneva: the latest news

Zurich surpasses Geneva in the world of real estate. This is the situation that has been characterizing Switzerland since the last quarter of last year. One of the most independent nations from the surrounding landscape and above all economically stable, is experiencing a real turnaround.

To guide potential investors and to try to understand the dimensions of the phenomenon, we decided to analyze the situation. Based on statistical surveys and analyzes carried out by leading experts in the real estate sector, it was possible to create a fairly complete overview. For this reason, we just have to inaugurate our current section, dedicated to these two competing Swiss cities!


In our analysis, we will follow the so-called 'funnel logic', starting from the overall situation in Switzerland, and then going into detail.
According to recent studies, Switzerland appears to be at risk of a housing bubble. Or worse, of excessive appreciation. Especially in the cities of Geneva and Zurich, the phenomenon seems to have reached exponential levels.


Although regulatory measures have been applied to further curb this price boom, the situation does not seem to change positively. Rather. Investors are increasingly discouraged, especially in the city of Geneva, which is downgraded sharply from Zurich.

But still according to statistical data, the real estate market in Zurich seems to hold up the good name of Swiss real estate. It is this city that still attracts investors, thanks to the drop in the interest rate for mortgages. But this situation, compared to previous years, is not at all positive. Suffice it to say that the market in both Zurich and Geneva is in an already overrated environment, with a decidedly low rental yield. Furthermore, Zurich surpassed Geneva, both by index but also by price. The actual prices of the latter, in fact, seem to have remained stationary, but decidedly overvalued.

 But what will Swiss real estate save? Without a doubt, negative rates are fundamental for a consistent recovery against the real estate bubble risk. It is important that buyers are willing to invest now before the situation becomes unsustainable. The strong point therefore: time!

 Zurich and Geneva in the EU context? How is the situation configured?
In most metropolitan cities, interest rates appear to have gone down. The only bubble risk locations are Paris and Frankfurt. This is why, in an extremely positive context, it is necessary to guarantee greater accessibility to investors, in order not to remain isolated even in the European real estate context.

How will the situation develop in Switzerland? It is not possible to clearly define the imminent situation. It is hoped that the bubble risk can be eliminated by a boom in demand, supported by a stabilization of prices.
