Identify the untapped potential of your Zurich property

Are there opportunities to expand the area of your house in Zurich?

Due to the historically grown building structure in the Zurich region, the construction year of many single-family houses, semi-detached houses, or villas dates back a certain time. While the size and equipment met the standard and building regulations at the time of construction, many things have changed since then. In recent years, the so-called utilization figures as part of the building and zoning regulations have been raised in many municipalities - meaning the legally permissible residential area size in relation to the available land area. This allows for the possibility of constructing a significantly larger residential property on many plots today than was possible at the time of purchase.

Especially with small single-family houses with large gardens, it often makes sense to create additional residential units or significantly expand the existing ones through an extension or renovation. Both a ground-level extension and the construction of new floors are possible depending on the individual case. This in turn opens up numerous attractive opportunities for you, whether through renting out the additional apartments or achieving a higher selling price. While constructing a completely new building instead of the existing one is possible, it is not necessarily required.
