The latest Swiss real estate market data at a glance

The ongoing shortage of rental accommodation is having the effect of driving up advertised rents further in the short term. The traditional advertised rental price index recorded a rise of 6.4% in the second quarter of 2024. As newbuild activity is still sluggish and the Swiss population continues to exhibit dynamic growth, there is no reason to expect a trend reversal in the development of advertised rents in the short term.

The strength of demand in the owner-occupied apartments segment has led to a further rise in what were already high transaction prices: in the second quarter of 2024, these were up by an average of 3.5% compared to the equivalent quarter of 2023. This rise is of a similar extent to that of the previous 12 months (+3.4%), as well as being well above the average of the last 10 years (+2.8%).

In a year-on-year comparison, the number of retail premises being advertised has increased by some 4% across Switzerland. This increase in supply is also having an impact on the rents of retail premises. In the second quarter of 2024, advertised rents in this segment declined by an average of some 1.6%.
