Information on locational description

The locational descriptions provided by Wüest & Partner are based on wide-ranging information on demographic structure and trends, accessibility, business community, employment situation, property stock, vacancy levels, development volumes and the housing and commercial property market.

These data are compiled for the selected municipality and, in part, for the surrounding conurbation or spatial mobility (MS) region (see information on geographical breakdown) and compared with benchmarks (e.g. Swiss national averages). The information is then translated into concise, soundly based statements

This standardized service is designed to permit the quick and straightforward assessment of a specific location with regard to single and mixed uses in the residential and commercial sectors.
