Start with a free valuation. No commitment, and you'll know what your home is worth today.
For a 150 m² house in Appenzell Innerrhoden, a traditional agency charging 2–4% would cost CHF 21'000 to CHF 43'000.
Ask who will handle your file day to day, not just the first meeting. Contracts and the mandate should be explained to you in English.
2–4% sounds small, but on a Swiss home it means tens of thousands of francs. Ask for the total amount in writing.
An agent who has sold in your commune knows the buyers, the prices and the notaries.
Be wary of an agent who promises a much higher price to win the mandate. Ask for comparable sales.
Check the duration, exclusivity and any withdrawal fees before signing.
