A historic villa in the center of Zurich. Around 500 square meters of living space, over nine rooms and a park-like plot with plenty of privacy. Properties like this are an absolute exception, even in Zurich. It is even rarer to find a new tenant for such a property. The rental conditions are as exceptional as the property itself. Accordingly, only a very select group comes into question. <\/p>\n\n
For me as team leader for first-time and re-letting, properties like this are the real treats in everyday life. These are the highlights that I look forward to. They show me time and again that I’m in the right place. Especially when it comes to off-market lettings. <\/p>\n\n
Owners of such rarities usually consider several options. This makes the first impression all the more important. In this case, we were able to impress with our proven approach. At the same time, as a passionate marketing specialist, it was important to me to create a personal and trusting basis right from the start. Trust is the basis for everything that follows. <\/p>\n\n
Properties like this cannot simply be brokered via conventional rental platforms. With this villa, it was therefore clear from the outset that precise positioning was crucial and discretion was paramount. This requires a strong network, a clear strategy and a targeted approach. In this way, we avoid unnecessary trouble on both sides. <\/p>\n\n
For off-market lettings, we focus on precision rather than quantity. This makes the process more selective and demanding. Within our network, we approach selected interested parties and present the property anonymously. This ensures discretion and at the same time expands our reach in a controlled manner. This diligence takes time. <\/p>\n\n
Even before a viewing takes place, it is decided how the prospective buyer will perceive the property. In the luxury segment in particular, the market presence determines who is attracted. In this property class, rental documents are far more than just information. They are a central part of the positioning. <\/p>\n\n
A high-quality presentation, clear language and the right balance between emotion and substance ensure that exactly the right prospective customers feel addressed.<\/p>\n\n
I’m not interested in simply finding a tenant. It’s about finding the right one – especially for listed properties or properties that have been in the family for generations. The right match is crucial here. After all, buildings are also shaped by their residents. <\/p>\n\n
Thanks to our network, we were able to identify suitable and solvent prospective tenants. We found the right tenant just a few weeks after taking on the mandate. Someone who not only met the requirements, but also understood the character of this special property. <\/p>\n\n
The subsequent contract design also required experience and negotiating skills. Especially when it comes to the interaction with listed buildings and individual requirements. It is precisely at such moments that the importance of sound experience becomes apparent. <\/p>\n\n
The success of such lettings is never the result of a single factor. The decisive factor is the interplay of discretion, a strong network, a convincing market presence and the necessary experience. <\/p>\n\n “Off-market rentals require an extra dose of experience and real intuition.”<\/p>Patrick Thalmann<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\nFrequently asked questions and answers about real estate valuation<\/h2>\n
