Bündner opens “Südostschweiz” in capital letters: The newspaper carries the headlines “Via Maistra new parade ground”. For non-Bundners: Via Maistra, St. It is the boulevard of Moritz GR. Background to the article: Rents in Graubünden are likely to increase extraordinarily sharply in 2023.
The newspaper relies on the latest real estate tracking from the consulting firm Wüest Partner AG. His conclusion: “In the individual districts of Graubünden, the price level of rental flats is comparable to that in the city centres. Or is it higher?”
Upper Engadin is more expensive than Lucerne
To be specific: The average one-room apartment costs 1,110 francs in Geneva and 1,100 francs in Zurich. Davos GR (820 francs) and Upper Engadine (820 francs) are just after the two metropolises. For comparison: only 630 francs in Chur.
The situation is similar for larger apartments. A three-room apartment in Davos costs an average of 1,670 francs, and a five-room apartment costs an average of 2,640 francs. Prices in the Upper Engadine are even higher. 1790 francs for a three-room flat, 2810 for a five-room flat. In Lucerne the corresponding flats are cheaper (1560 francs or 2270 francs).
“The country is in the top league”
What are the reasons for the sharp increase in rents? For Robert Weinert, head of real estate monitoring at Wüest Partner, the focus is Corona. “Individual Graubünden districts now play in the national top league when it comes to rents,” he says of “Southeast Switzerland”. As more people from the centers would settle in the mountains, the rents of the local people would increase. (pbe)
