Meta-search portal that aggregates listings from Homegate, ImmoScout24, Newhome, and 10+ other Swiss portals into a single English-language search. Best for a quick overview — then go to the source portals to set up direct alerts.
Digital-first rental platform popular with property managers and private landlords. Full English site, push alerts within 30 minutes of new listings, and an online application workflow — useful for expats who haven't yet built a local network. Free to use for tenants.
Switzerland's largest property portal with over 100,000 active listings and 9 million monthly visits. Full English interface, app for iOS and Android, email alerts, and remote-viewing badges. The single most important platform to set up alerts on.
Second-largest Swiss property portal with 40,000–50,000 active listings and strong nationwide coverage. Full English website and app, advanced filters for rooms, price, and canton. Many properties appear here and not on Homegate — run both searches in parallel.
Cantonal-bank-backed portal with 20 million annual visits, strong on new-build and recently renovated listings. Full English site. Private landlords can list free for 14 days, so you'll find exclusive off-market gems not on the bigger portals.
