Swiss Expat Realtor

Swiss Expat Realtor is a boutique agency run by people who have been expats themselves, which shapes how they advise on neighbourhoods, suggesting areas from a newcomer’s point of view and explaining how things work locally. For the rental search they tap a personal network to shortlist flats, including some not yet on the market, handle the viewings, and step in to advocate for the application using their local language skills and contacts. They are multilingual in Swiss German, English, French and Mandarin.

The agency works in Zurich, Zug, Schwyz and Basel. Home finding is one of a broad set of services that also includes settling-in and arrival support, immigration, temporary housing, school searches, vehicle and licence registration, and real estate sales and purchases, including buying a property, finding a tenant and off-market deals.
