Residential areas in which owners can easily sell their property from an estate agent's point of view are the Winterthur-Dättnau district, which appeals to many young families, the Heiligberg and Breite districts, which are among the best residential areas in the city and have an interesting selection of stately villas and modern condominiums, and the Veltheim district. Wülflingen and Töss are two other residential areas with excellent transport links and put sellers in a good position to sell.

Another attractive residential community is Seuzach with excellent transport links, several shopping options, a secondary school and kindergartens. At the gateway to the Zürcher Weinland lies the rural municipality of Hettlingen, which has a very good school infrastructure, an S-Bahn station and a low tax rate of 96%. Another very popular property location is the heavily wooded rural community of Dägerlen with its villages of Rutschwil, Bänk, Berg and Oberwil, which uniquely combines proximity to the city with rural life.

The south-eastern part of Winterthur also has a very good infrastructure and marvellous recreational areas. According to our estate agents, this part of Switzerland has become very attractive for families and students in recent years due to the very high quality of life and cultural diversity. Property owners in the neighbouring municipality of Elsau with its seven villages and hamlets also benefit from the advantages of the city of Winterthur.

Due to high inflation, rising interest rates, and the energy crisis resulting from the war in Ukraine, there was a certain level of uncertainty about the economic conditions last year, reflected in a slightly cautious purchasing behavior. Nevertheless, Engel & Völkers real estate agents predict population growth and increased demand for housing due to the region's high attractiveness. In conjunction with the aging population, our experts also anticipate an improvement in the supply situation and a decrease in transaction duration.
The excellent location qualities make the dynamic region of Winterthur a particularly attractive place to live. Some of the advantages of the region include proximity to the city of Zurich and Zurich-Kloten international airport, excellent infrastructure, attractive job opportunities, and low municipal taxes.
