Property valuation · Geneva

Valuation of your luxury property in Geneva

In Geneva, two villas of the same size can differ in value by a factor of two depending on the commune, the view and the plot. We value your property against sales actually concluded in your area, many of which were never published.

What is the property’s address?

We look up the plot and building in the official registers: fewer questions for you, a more accurate valuation.

Geneva, area by area

What drives value in your commune

An average price per square metre means little across the canton. Each area has its own criteria, which we build into the valuation.

Cologny and Vandœuvres

Large, quiet estates with views over the lake and the harbour. Plot size, an unobstructed view and privacy often weigh more than living space.

Vésenaz, Collonge-Bellerive, Anières and Hermance

The left bank of the lake: direct water access, a private jetty or a mooring dramatically change the value of a property.

Chêne-Bougeries, Conches and Thônex

Close to the city centre and schools, houses in the villa zone: plot layout and development potential are part of the valuation.

Champel, Florissant, Malagnou and Eaux-Vives

Prestige condominium apartments: floor, view, light, quality of the building, service charges and the renovation fund make the difference between two neighbouring homes.

Right bank: Genthod, Bellevue and Versoix

Lakeside properties close to the airport and the international organisations, sought after by diplomatic and international buyers.

Carouge

A preserved Sardinian town: period charm, penthouses and townhouses, where authentic architecture counts as much as amenities.

Geneva specifics

What a Geneva valuation must check

Zoning and plot potential

In the villa zone, a plot can be worth more for its development potential than for the house itself. We check the zoning and what it allows before setting a value.

Rented apartments

Selling an apartment that has been let can require an authorisation under the Geneva law on demolition, conversion and renovation (LDTR). It is best to know before going to market, as it affects the timeline.

Who can buy

A large share of buyers in Geneva are international. The rules on acquisitions by persons abroad (Lex Koller) determine who can buy your property, and therefore the real demand to factor in.

Tax on the sale

In Geneva, the tax on real estate gains decreases with the holding period, and registration duties are generally paid by the buyer. We point out what to have your notary or tax adviser calculate.

Value criteria, what the written valuation contains, documents to prepare: our method is set out on the page Sell your property.
