The Federal Chancellery will still determine whether the referendums actually took place. This requires 50,000 valid signatures. It is very likely that the double referendum will be voted on, probably towards the end of this year.
Several left-wing parties, the Swiss Federation of Trade Unions (SGB) and organizations such as the Association of Swiss Student Unions (VSS) are behind the referenda. When submitting the opinion, representatives of Allianz spoke of a “frontal attack by the real estate lobby on rental law”.
Tenants are under great pressure, rents are increasingly rising and parliament has pushed through the deterioration of rental law, says Michael Töngi (56), vice-chairman of the Tenants Association and National Councilor of the Green Party, in an interview with Keystone-SDA . “We want to stop this, it cannot continue like this.”
In the autumn session, parliament decided to amend rental law in favor of ownership. On the one hand, landlords must now explicitly agree in writing to subletting properties.
In addition, landlords should be given an extraordinary right of termination if tenants do not meet the requirements for subletting. The reason for this included the increasing number of sublettings via the Airbnb platform, especially in cities.
The second innovation concerns personal use. Specifically, termination of the rental property should no longer be possible if the owner has an “urgent” personal need, but rather if the owner “can establish a significant and current personal need based on an objective assessment.” Supporters of this change hope that it will lead to faster procedures in disputes.
