Largest Real Estate Managers in Switzerland

Swiss real estate management companies play an important part in the Swiss real estate market. They act as a link between owners and tenants. Many managers take over entire portfolio management for larger owners, including the associated controlling and reporting. Property management in Switzerland is also central. Here, the focus is on a balanced relationship between preservation and development of the property as well as optimization of rental income.

Property Management and Stockholder Ownership

A central component of property management – in addition to the management of tenant concerns – is the administration of costs. Payments have to be monitored, service charge statements prepared and passed on to tenants. This also includes the tax-ready preparation of receipts and overviews. Switzerland’s top property managers are active in all these areas.
