    Relocation and continuation of services

    Cilander is selling its properties in Herisau. Following the sale of the eastern part of the site to Rico Sicherheitstechnik AG, the western part will now be taken over by Herold Taxi AG, Cilander announced in a press release. The textile company had ceased production in Herisau following the takeover of strategic assets by the Chargeurs Group in July. The newly created SENFA-CILANDER Switzerland AG, headquartered in Herisau, will continue parts of the business under the umbrella of Chargeurs and in particular maintain production in Lützelflüh BE.

    Herold Taxi AG, currently based in St.Gallen, will move to the newly acquired site. “After a long search, we are delighted to have found a location that supports our growth for the benefit of our private and public customers,” said Managing Director Samuel Holenstein in the press release. “We look forward to continuing our history in Herisau and being there for our customers.” However, the services in St.Gallen will continue to be offered around the clock.

  • Holiday home in Davos goes to Ferienkolonie Sonnenschein AG

    Holiday home in Davos goes to Ferienkolonie Sonnenschein AG

    The city of Winterthur originally intended to acquire the Ob dem See holiday home in Davos Wolfgang from the Oberwinterthur holiday colony association and then to sell it together with an adjacent, city-owned playground, the city administration of Winterthur informed in a message . In the context of an invitation to tender, however, a buyer could be found who would purchase both pieces of land individually and who would complete the purchase in the land registry immediately after the public notarization. The holiday colony Sonnenschein AG, founded especially for the purchase, wants to continue operating the property as a holiday colony.

    The company from Freienbach was able to prevail against two competitors in the corresponding tender, the message also states. The purchase price mentioned there is 2.54 million francs for the holiday home property belonging to the Oberwinterthur holiday colony association and 1.16 million francs for the adjacent playground.

    The holiday colony association will donate around 1 million francs to the city of Winterthur from its sales proceeds. The city administration explains that the donation is earmarked and will be used by the city of Winterthur for a newly established children and youth fund. The funds of the fund are intended for children and young people living in the city of Winterthur.

  • Luxury real estate is on the rise

    Luxury real estate is on the rise

    According to UBS , the pandemic has sparked a sharp surge in demand for luxury real estate. As their recently published study “ UBS Luxury Property Focus 2021 ” shows, demand rose by more than half compared to the previous year. This is about three times as high as the five-year mean. As a result, prices also rose above average: "The excess demand caused prices in the luxury segment to skyrocket by 9 percent in 2020 – significantly more than the 4.4 percent in the average Swiss home market," said UBS real estate expert Katharina Hofer in a press release quoted.

    UBS is making a “gold rush” on Lake Geneva. The municipality of Cologny remains the most expensive luxury real estate market in Switzerland. In the luxury communities near Geneva, prices rose by an average of around 16 percent over the course of a year. The highest-priced properties in Gstaad can be found on the second home market. In the Upper Engadin, the luxury segment begins just below the purchase prices there. Luxury properties in mountain communities were also 10 percent more expensive. In contrast, the price increases in the Lake Zurich region and in Central Switzerland were more moderate with an average of 6 percent.

    The UBS report cites the positive development of the financial markets as the reasons for the high demand. In addition, the long-term intrinsic value was particularly attractive in view of the uncertain economic development. In addition, the study notes an increased interest from abroad. "Because the local measures to contain the pandemic were far less restrictive than, for example, in France, Italy or Great Britain." A large part of the foreign demand comes from these countries. UBS also cites the low risk of higher taxes in this country for top earners and the good health system as motives.

    UBS expects that current demand drivers will also remain in effect in the second half of the year. Accordingly, an above-average number of transactions and local price increases can still be expected. And the trend should continue beyond the year, so Hofer: "Anyone looking for a place with stable institutions and established luxury locations in global luxury markets should increasingly focus on Switzerland."

    MoneyPark is growing in Winterthur. Last year, the company's team there was expanded from three to six consultants. Accordingly, MoneyPark has now moved into new premises. The location is at Metzggasse 20 and, according to a report, comprises six consultation rooms.

    Imomi lanciert Plattform für privaten Immobilienverkauf

    Ab sofort offeriert die digitale Plattform imomi.ch Immobilienbesitzerinnen und -besitzern die Möglichkeit, ihr Objekt selbständig und ohne Makler zu verkaufen. „Die Digitalisierung hat bereits viele Bereiche unseres Lebens vereinfacht. Nun wird es Zeit, die generell träge Immobilienbranche zu revolutionieren“, wird CEO und Mitgründer Nicholas J. Arthur in einer Medienmitteilung des Basler Start-ups Imomi zitiert.

    Oft fehle es an Erfahrung und Zeit, sich selbst um den Verkauf zu kümmern. So sähen sich Verkaufswillige häufig gezwungen, Maklerkommissionen bis 3 Prozent in Kauf zu nehmen, heisst es dort weiter. Bei der Eigenvermarktung über imomi.ch zahle der Kunde erst bei erfolgreichem Abschluss 0,9 Prozent des Verkaufspreises.

    Für die sichere und effiziente Abwicklung des Verkaufsprozesses bietet Imomi eine unabhängige und kostenlose Schätzung des Werts einer Immobilie und eine professionelle Dokumentation. Diese beinhaltet das Erstellen eines virtuellen Hauses mit 3D-Rundgängen sowie professionelle Fotos und Drohnenaufnahmen. Eine entsprechende Annonce wird schweizweit in die relevantesten Immobilienplattformen eingestellt. Die Sicherheit eines professionellen Vertragswerks sei durch fachkundige Notare gewährt.
