    Burkhalter Group completes capital increase

    Burkhalter Group has successfully completed a capital increase for the acquisition of Solothurn-based Riggenbach AG, Lüftungs- und Klimatechnik, the Zurich-based specialist for building technology announced in a press release. Specifically, 148,774 new registered shares with a nominal value of 4 centimes each were issued from the existing capital band. The seller of Riggenbach AG will receive the new shares as part of the purchase price and has undertaken to hold two thirds of the registered shares for at least two years.

    With the capital increase, Burkhalter’s share capital has risen to just under CHF 425,000. It consists of a total of 10,622,130 registered shares with a nominal value of 4 centimes each. The new registered shares can be traded on the SIX Swiss Exchange as of 30 August.

    The acquisition of Riggenbach AG is intended to give Burkhalter additional market share. The company, which is headquartered in Olten and has branches in Solothurn and Brugg AG, generates annual sales of around CHF 40 million. In its strategy, Burkhalter reserves the right to acquire other building technology companies in order to expand its market share.

  • There are great price differences in real estate

    There are great price differences in real estate

    Homegate.ch finds big differences in the purchase price of residential properties within Switzerland. Geneva and Zug are proving to be the most expensive cantons to buy a home, as the real estate platform belonging to TX Markets AG writes in a press release. Interested parties can only buy a 1.5 room apartment there for CHF 500,000. The same amount of money can be used to buy a three-room apartment in the canton of Zurich. In the cantons of Uri, St.Gallen and Jura, the budget is even enough for a 4.5 room apartment.

    Homegate.ch also detects major differences in property prices within the individual cantons. In some municipalities in the canton of Zurich (Elgg, Gossau or Mönchaltorf), a 3.5-room apartment can be purchased for CHF 500,000. In other municipalities (City of Zurich, Horgen or Männedorf) the money is only enough for a 1.5-room apartment.

    Overall, the purchase prices for real estate have risen in all cantons over the past ten years. Real estate has risen most in price in the canton of Zug. There the prices for a 4.5-room condominium rose from CHF 900,000 in 2010 to CHF 1.3 million in 2020. That corresponds to an increase of 45 percent.

    The rental prices are also very different depending on the canton. And here, too, Geneva and Zug prove to be particularly expensive. The city of Zurich also has comparatively high rental prices. Appenzell Ausserrhoden or Jura are considered cheaper. In the past ten years, rental prices have increased less than purchase prices.
