    UBS and Wincasa launch new property advisory service

    UBS and property service provider Wincasa are offering owners of investment properties a new advisory solution. According to a press release, both companies want to use this offer to support owners in the renovation and energy-efficient refurbishment of their properties. The expertise of the Zurich-based financial institution UBS and the real estate company belonging to the Implenia Group will make the renovation of investment properties easier and more seamless, according to the press release. In particular, the focus is on greenhouse gas emissions. The real estate sector is the second-largest emitter in Switzerland with around 25 per cent.

    In a consultation with UBS and Wincasa, the needs of owners of investment properties are discussed and a modular offer is drawn up. UBS experts determine the financial feasibility of planned projects.

    “We are delighted to be launching this comprehensive advisory solution for the energy-efficient refurbishment of investment properties in the Swiss market together with Wincasa,” said Alain Conte, Head of Corporate & Real Estate Banking Switzerland at UBS, in the press release. “With this new offering, we want to give an additional boost to sustainable thinking in the property sector.” “Wincasa and Implenia have extensive expertise and experience in advising, planning and implementing renovation projects, particularly in the energy-efficient refurbishment of older existing properties. We will bring this expertise to the new offering and thus create added value for UBS customers,” adds Jens Vollmar, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Wincasa and Head Division Buildings at Implenia.

    Private sole and co-owners of investment properties in Switzerland expect stable price development in the next year, writes Crowdhouse in a communication on its new real estate barometer. According to the Zurich fintech, this is “the only data collection in Switzerland that focuses on the expectations of private owners of Swiss investment properties”. For the current edition of the barometer, Crowdhouse interviewed around 180 people.

    Only a minority of 6 percent expect real estate prices to fall in the next year, the press release explains. Most of those surveyed consider the market for investment property to be safe and not very risky. However, it is also considered overrated, explains Crowdhouse. An excessively high rating and vacancies were named by those surveyed as the two greatest current risks.

    In addition, the respondents have spoken out in favor of greater digitization of the market, writes the fintech company. Crowdhouse provides detailed information on the property barometer on the Internet .
