From Geneva to Zurich: Finding the Right Home Remotely
Relocating from Geneva to Baden while searching for an apartment remotely is difficult when you cannot attend viewings or manage the application locally.
For this client, SwissNest acted as the local representative throughout the search.
The challenge
The client needed to find a suitable apartment in the Baden area while still living in Geneva.
How we helped
SwissNest:
Defined the search strategy and identified suitable apartments
Attended a viewing on the client's behalf and assessed the apartment
Took photos and videos so the client could make a decision remotely
Communicated directly with the real estate agency
Prepared, submitted and followed up on the application
Supported the process until the rental contract was signed
We did not simply send listings. We were on the ground for the client and handled the local steps they could not manage from Geneva.
The result
The client secured an apartment in the Baden area without having to travel from Geneva for the viewing.
The entire local search and application process was handled by SwissNest, allowing the client to make decisions remotely while focusing on the rest of the relocation.
Client feedback
“Andy was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He attended an apartment viewing on my behalf, which was extremely helpful given the distance, and supported me through every step of the application process.”
“Thanks to his support, I was able to find and sign a rental contract in a very short time.”
