40 years of development and innovation
The most important milestones of the Wüest Partner Group
1985: Foundation
The cultural engineer Hannes Wüest and the architect Christian Gabathuler meet at the ETH Zurich. In a small room on Trittligasse in Zurich, the two of them start working together under the name “Wüest & Gabathuler, Raumplanung und Rauminformation”, which today employs around 500 people at Wüest Partner.
1992: First Immo-Monitoring
The first release of the publication, clad entirely in black, announces a major real estate crisis in Switzerland. Initially ridiculed in the industry, the company was soon held in high regard when the predicted crisis actually broke out shortly afterwards. Today, Immo-Monitoring is the leading digital platform for studies and real estate market data.
1998: Introduction of new valuation methods
With the introduction of the hedonic valuation method and discounted cash flow valuation, Wüest Partner further expands its data-driven valuation solutions. Today, the company carries out around 22,000 real estate valuations per year.
