Over 30 years of experience as a real estate specialist
We generally market your property in Zermatt initially off-market — without a sign, without an online advertisement, without a public exposé. Only when the discreet route has been exhausted and you expressly wish it, do we move to broad marketing. This way, your privacy is preserved — from neighbours, tenants, employees, and the tax office.

Market data for Zermatt at a glance: purchase prices for houses and flats, rents, and land values, each with a history of several years. The basis is publicly available statistics and analyses from the valuation committees.
For Swiss municipalities, the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) does not publish square metre prices per municipality, but rather the national residential property price index IMPI. We therefore show the national index – as a reference for long-term price development in Zermatt. Basis: Q4 2019 = 100.
Index level 2026: 126.8 points (Basis Q4 2019 = 100)
The national FSO index IMPI reflects the development of transaction prices for owner-occupied housing in Switzerland. As the FSO does not publish square metre prices specific to municipalities, the national index serves as a reliable reference for long-term price development — including in Zermatt.

Zermatt is one of those municipalities where no statistically reliable price per square metre can be established, as there are too few transactions. For sellers, this means: the asking price should be derived from comparable properties in neighbouring municipalities rather than taken from a cantonal average. The district of Visp generally serves as the reference area, as the demand profile and construction style there are most comparable to Zermatt. As soon as reliable market data for Zermatt becomes available, we will add it here, including the source and date.
Frequently asked questions about buying, selling, financing, and living in Zermatt — concisely answered.
For owners in Zermatt who wish to sell their property and continue to live in it, FREITAG® offers the classic property annuity (Immobilienverrentung) — via usufruct (Nießbrauch), Right of residence, Leaseback or Life annuity. You release the capital tied up in your house or condominium in Zermatt and secure a right of residence registered in the land registry.
The model that is particularly in demand is Usufruct: You remain the economic owner, are in the first rank in the land registry, and can even rent out the property if needed. An owner-occupancy termination is contractually excluded for all four models.
Whether it's care costs, gifts to heirs, or a noticeably higher pension: We will check for owners in Zermatt, free of charge, which model suits their life situation, and obtain offers from selected investors and foundations.
Entrepreneurs in Zermatt who wish to sell their commercial property and lease it back use Sale & Lease-Back: They sell office buildings, warehouses or practice premises to an investor, receive liquidity for growth or consolidation, and lease the property back long-term. The location in Zermatt remains unchanged.
FREITAG® accompanies the entire process: value-based valuation, selection of qualified investors, contract drafting with clear lease-back conditions — including options for repurchase and flexible terms.
We check free of charge whether your commercial property in Zermatt is suitable for a Sale & Lease-Back and obtain transparent offers — without obligation and without hidden costs.
Hospitality properties in Zermatt are valued differently from residential properties: Key factors are turnover, contribution margin, seating capacity, kitchen technology, licences, and whether the business can function without the previous owner. We value based on the earnings approach and openly state which portions are attributable to the property, inventory, and goodwill.
Marketing is conducted discreetly. A publicly visible sales offer unsettles staff, regular customers, and suppliers in Zermatt — therefore, we approach interested parties specifically and under a confidentiality agreement.
Whether selling, leasing, or handing over to a successor within the family: We structure the path that suits the situation of your business in Zermatt , and accompany you until the notary or lease agreement appointment.
