Independent Real Estate Advisory · Zurich & Lake Zurich

Committed solely to your interests.

Buying and selling first-class properties with excellence, absolute discretion and one clear promise: advice without compromise.

What I stand for

Three principles behind every recommendation.

Independence

Being independent is what lets me represent your interests fully: my recommendations follow your goals alone, never third-party interests.

Transparency

Clear processes, open communication and professional guidance that makes a difference — from the first analysis to the notary.

Discretion

I work with a deliberately limited number of clients. Fewer mandates mean more time with each — and more care at every step. What you share in our engagement stays there.

Services

Two paths, one standard: your interests first.

01 · Buying

Buyer Advisory

From the search to the keys: I represent buyers with full commitment and close attention, including properties that are never publicly listed. For clients moving to Switzerland, relocation guidance is part of the mandate.

Property Valuation

What is your property worth today?

A sound valuation based on the intrinsic-value method — prepared personally, explained clearly and, of course, treated in confidence.

No automated estimate: you receive a careful analysis and a personal conversation — with no obligation.

About

Institutional experience. Personal commitment.

My path led through the institutional side of real estate, including Allianz Real Estate (later PIMCO Prime Real Estate) and Hines, and into private client advisory at Engel & Völkers Zürich. Today I place that experience solely at the service of my clients: independent, personal, and at home in Zurich and around Lake Zurich.
