Frequently asked questions

What is a good gross yield in Switzerland?
In Switzerland, gross yields of around 3–5% are common. Yields above 5% are found more in peripheral regions or with older properties.
What is the difference between gross and net yield?
Gross yield relates the annual rent to the purchase price. Net yield additionally accounts for acquisition costs, vacancy, maintenance and management.
What incidental costs apply when buying?
In Switzerland, typically around 2–5% of the price: transfer tax, notary, land registry and possibly agency commission.
What third-party financing is usual?
Banks generally finance up to 80% of the market value; for affordability they often calculate with around 67%.
What does negative cash flow mean?
Cash flow is negative when rent, after costs and interest, does not cover the financing – the property must then be supported from other funds.

Methodology and sources

The figures follow standard Swiss property valuation: gross yield = annual rent / purchase price; net yield = net operating income / total investment. Net operating income = rent after vacancy minus maintenance and management. The calculator provides a simplified model.
