Value with Comparis: from estimated price to market value of your Zurich property
Property in Zurich is expensive by Swiss standards. Condominiums here are listed at more than twice the Swiss median price. Prices vary widely by city district, location and condition. A sound valuation shows you a realistic price for your property.
Would you like to receive an initial reference point? With the Comparis property valuation tool, you can calculate your property’s value online, free of charge. This valuation is based on your property’s location, living space, year of construction and specified features.
Once you have completed the form, you will immediately receive an e-mail from us. Please click on the link in the e-mail to confirm your e-mail address and view the estimated worth of your home. Your information will then be passed on to the Comparis broker service as well as its partner companies. This enables them to contact you and offer an on-site, free, non-binding and professional estimation of your property’s worth.
An online assessment isn’t enough to comprehensively determine your property price: on-site valuation is necessary. Property experts from the Comparis partner network know supply, demand and price trends. They can determine a property’s fair market value by assessing various factors such as its location, its current condition and its facilities. An on-site visit is required, particularly if you are selling a multi-family house or building land. This way, important details such as location, possible uses, zone and district plans as well as building regulations can be taken into account during the valuation.

Source: Comparis analysis of listings for sale on comparis.ch, as of September 30, 2026. Listings are assigned to city districts by their coordinates. Without an exact address, the postal code decides. Listings without an exact address count toward the city median but not toward any district. Municipalities are assigned using the official Swiss directory of towns and cities. Asking prices, not sale prices. Duplicate listings are counted only once. Values are shown only if at least 30 listings are available. New builds are listings with a construction year from 2022 to 2030 or labeled “new build”. “At city median” means a difference of 5 percent or less. Next update: April 2027.

It starts with the free Comparis online estimate. It is based on location, living space, year of construction and features. You receive the value by e-mail.
Property experts from the Comparis partner network then offer you an on-site valuation. This is free of charge and without obligation.
In Zurich, they pay particular attention to the city district. Asking prices differ by around CHF 8,000 per m² between District 8 and District 12.
The experts rely on comparable prices, the capitalized income value or the intrinsic value.
The Comparis online estimate is free and does not commit you to anything. The on-site valuation by property experts from the Comparis partner network is also free. It is arranged through the Comparis broker service.
In Zurich, an accurate value is especially worthwhile. A typical 4.5-room apartment is listed at CHF 2.3 million. A deviation of 1 percent equals around CHF 23,000.
City district: Asking prices vary widely between districts. Districts 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 are currently well above the city median. In Districts 11 and 12, they are well below.
Lake proximity and view: Properties with a lake view or a view of the Alps usually achieve higher prices.
Transport and infrastructure: Being close to S-Bahn, tram and bus stops affects the price.
Zoning: The city’s building and zoning regulations (Bau- und Zonenordnung) govern how land may be used.
Building age and condition: Newer buildings usually achieve higher prices. The same applies to properties renovated for energy efficiency, for example with a Minergie certificate.
Floor and orientation: Apartments on upper floors with a good view usually achieve higher prices than ground-floor units.
Interest rates: The interest rate level affects how much buyers can finance.
For the online estimate, you fill in a short form. This takes around three minutes. The estimate then arrives by e-mail.
The duration of an on-site valuation depends on the property. A period apartment in Riesbach raises different questions than a new build in Oerlikon. A written appraisal report takes more time.
Look for a recognized qualification. This includes the Federal Diploma of Higher Education for real estate appraisers. Many experts are members of the SIV (Schweizer Immobilienschätzer-Verband). Others belong to the SVIT chamber of valuation experts (Bewertungsexperten-Kammer SVIT). MRICS is a widely used international title.
In Zurich, local knowledge also matters. Depending on the district, prices are 26 percent below to 18 percent above the city median.
A valuation helps you set an asking price that fits the Zurich market.
For a mortgage, the bank requires its own valuation of the property. This is set out in the guidelines of the Swiss Bankers Association.
If you sell at a profit, property gains tax (Grundstückgewinnsteuer) is due. In the canton of Zurich, the municipality levies it, here the city of Zurich. The tax applies to the profit after deducting investment costs.
Descendants and spouses pay no inheritance tax in the canton of Zurich. A valuation still helps ensure a fair division of the estate.
Prepare the following documents for a smooth valuation:
Land register extract from the responsible notary’s office (Notariat) in the city of Zurich, which also keeps the land register
Cadastral plan and site plan
Building plans and floor plans with exact square meters (SIA 416)
Policy from the cantonal building insurer (GVZ) with the current insured value
GEAK or Minergie label, if available
Renovation history and invoices for major renovations
Lease agreements and rent roll for rental properties
For condominiums: regulations, minutes of owners’ meetings and status of the renovation fund
