As every year, we have taken a close look at the market development of property prices in the region and will publish the market reports for the popular holiday resorts of St. Moritz, Celerina, Pontresina and Samedan on 20 December 2021.
After a certain amount of uncertainty prevailed following the adoption of the second-home initiative in March 2012, with unpredictable trends in the price development of holiday homes that lasted until 2018, prices have been rising steadily ever since. Thus, the price level has never been as high as in 2021 and an end to this development does not seem to be in sight. An additional driver of rising prices for holiday homes is the change in travel behaviour brought about by COVID-19. For example, fewer and fewer properties have recently crossed the notary's table to foreign buyers and more and more to buyers from Switzerland.
However, buying a holiday property is and remains a luxury that only a few can afford given this development and the small number of properties coming onto the market. For them, however, it is a doubly worthwhile investment: Firstly, you have a beautiful domicile in the mountains that you can always use freely or rent out. Secondly, selling real estate in the Upper Engadine promises to be a safer investment than many other options, especially in this persistently low interest rate environment.
What prices are currently being paid on the Suvretta slope, what the situation is like in Pontresina and Celerina or in Samedan with its central function and above-average number of rental flats, you can find out in our popular market reports. These are available free of charge at our office at Val Sarlas 23 in St. Moritz. In any case, our team looks forward to your visit.
