SVIT Switzerland: Study on the Housing Market.
For the first time in three years, the number of rental apartments advertised on Swiss real estate portals has risen again. The time it takes for rental apartments to remain advertised has become shorter – despite a significantly larger supply. The latest OWI study, conducted by the Swiss Real Estate Institute on behalf of SVIT Schweiz, HEV Schweiz, and the real estate portal newhome, explains this as a “release of pent-up demand for moves.” Between April 2024 and March 2025, around 70,000 more apartments were advertised than in the same period last year (+21%).
