Silver Nest Relocation

“I couldn’t recommend Silver Nest Relocation more than enough to anyone searching for an apartment in Zürich’s competitive housing market. From the very beginning, Caroline was a huge help. She guided me through every step of the process, accounting for my preferences and doing everything she could to make sure my needs were fully met, which they thankfully were :) The entire search took around a month and a half, and I’m genuinely delighted with the apartment I can now call home! I know how challenging it would have been to secure a place like this without Caroline’s support and the expertise of the Silver Nest team. I found that Silver Nest’s service significantly reduced the stress and frustration that tends to come along with dealing directly with landlords and estate agents. Instead of endless back-and-forth communication, I could simply reach out to Caroline, and she handled everything smoothly on my behalf! I’m sincerely grateful for the support, professionalism, and kindness I experienced throughout the process of the search and the eventual handover appointment. Once again, I would like to thank Caroline and the Silver Nest team for making this transition so much easier and for helping me find the perfect home in Zürich!”

“I had an amazing experience working with Caroline during my move from London to Zurich. From the very beginning she was incredibly easy to talk to, friendly, clear, and genuinely interested in helping us settle in without stress. She arranged the viewings, helped us understand each neighbourhood, and guided us through the entire rental process. All the paperwork, the back-and-forth with agencies, the applications. For us, moving from another country and not knowing how things work here, that support meant everything. Caroline also helped with the Zurich registration steps and answered every question we had along the way, always quickly and always with patience. You really feel she’s on your side and wants things to go smoothly for you. Thanks to her, we found a great apartment and felt supported at every stage of the move. Truly a fantastic service!”

“Can't recommend them enough! Caroline and Angelique did a fantastic job in finding me a new home in Zurich while I was living and working in another country, not yet in possession of a Swiss resident permit and very unfamiliar with the Zurich housing market. The whole process took about 3 weeks, and they managed to secure me a nice apartment just after a single round of in-person viewings, which resulted in 2 lease offers out of 3 applications. I'm sure that if I were less constrained by my full-time job in a different country, the process would have been even faster. During the whole process, the communication was very clear and they kindly answered all my questions, either via WhatsApp or E-mail. During the accompanied viewings they spoke with the owners/tenants on my behalf (I'm not able to speak the local language yet), properly advised me on many aspects, and took care of all the paperwork.”

“Caroline und Angelique waren super freundlich, kompetent, und eine riesige Hilfe! Kann ich nur empfehlen! Herzlichen Dank!”

“It is good and clean”

“They are very supportive on apartment search with a lot of suggestion. They helped our relocation to Switderland so we are very happy about their service.”

“Using Silver Nest was worth the investment. Our family of 4 moved from the USA to Zurich and Caroline Kauffman very capably handled the most complex aspects of our move including finding permanent housing straight away, schools for our children, internet access at our flat prior to arrival and immigration administration. Caroline was very organized and consistently responsive either by WhatsApp, call or email. Her services really were worth every penny of the expense and I would recommend her to anyone relocating to the Zurich area.”

“Caroline and Angelique did an absolute fantastic job. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better place to live in Zurich! Communication was fluid and they took care of all the paperwork. Even with all my prerequisites, they found my new home. 10/10!”

“We moved last month from Germany to Switzerland and had the best experience ever with Silver Nest Relocation. Caroline and her team are super professional, friendly and helpful. Their service goes way beyond the usual moving companies’ assistance thanks to their impeccable understanding of what it means for a family when settling into a new country. Highly recommend Silver Nest for any expatriate relocation to Switzerland!”

“We couldn't recommend Silver Nest enough! Caroline worked miracles in an massively competitive market and found us our perfect home! She gave consistent and clear communication throughout so we felt very comfortable!”

“Caroline and the team at Silver Nest went above and beyond to help us navigate the notoriously difficult Zurich apartment market, and find, get, and settle into an apartment we absolutely love. She took our specific needs and requests into account, advised us on options, and pulled out all the stops to help us secure our top pick apartments. We couldn’t have done this without her and the team!”

“Caroline is an expert in her field. The Zürich housing market is very difficult but she is able to navigate it. If you want to find your dream home fast, then Caroline is the right person.”

“Ms. Caroline Kaufmann helped my family twice to find apartment during the whole process, she is friendly and warm heart, considered all the service details for us , and really high efficient to get connections with the potential apartments. For the second time when we contacted with her again, she did an urgent help and support for us , without her, we never could be successful to get the offer. We will also recommend her to anyone who would move to Switzerland or when you want to change apartment within Switzerland.😊”

“After looking for an apartment for months on our own, and without success, we hired Caroline at Silver Nest to help us find an apartment for our family. She was highly responsive and knowledgeable. She helped us apply to many apartments and ultimately secured an apartment for us in our desired location. We are very grateful for her assistance and kindness!”

“We relocated to Zurich from another country with zero knowledge of German. We contacted Silver Nest and got the quotes very quickly. There are different packages depending on your needs. The information is very clear and straightforward. Caroline helped us find a brand new apartment, and handled all the talking with the landlord. We eventually signed the contract well before the moving date. Caroline arranged and met us at the key-handover meeting with the landlord on the first date we arrived Zurich. She also provided us all the important information about the apartment, as well as daily life in Zurich. This helped tremendously during our move and gave us a smooth start in Switzerland (e.g every paperwork, like bank, gov. registration, mobile, school, work,... will require a Swiss address. So having a permanent address at the beginning reduced the overhead a lot). We are really happy with the service and strongly recommend working with Caroline when moving to Zurich. Thank you so much Caroline!”

“I contacted Silver Nest to help me with a relocation to Zürich and Caroline has been extremely efficient at finding an apartment! This is the forth time I relocate to another city/country, usually it's quite some stress, but this time I had the smoothest experience, thank you!”

“We were clients of Silver Nest for our relocation from London, UK, to Zurich, Switzerland in the summer of 2022. In one short sentence: we couldnt rank Silver Nest and Caroline Kaufmann highly enough. Our move was not straight forward as we were self employed and needed to set up our business in Zurich while moving. It is quite complex to figure out the Swiss immigratio and legal system and the property market in particular is very tight around Lake Zurich. This means that foreigners looking to rent wihtout a set-up in Switzerland are - generally speaking - quite disadvantaged. With help from Silver Nest: not us!! Caroline was super helpful and accomodative in helping us with immigration and finding a rental property. It only took a few weeks for us to sign a rental contract in a lovely apartment in Zurich. Caroline viewed and evaluated the property for us, helped with arranging and negotiating the rental contract and guided us extremely well through the process. The entire exercise felt very friendly and natural and above all highly professional. Caroline was also extremely generous with her time throughout the planning process. There were some delays on our sude and we had to postpone the move originally. Caroline was extremely commercial and pragmatic and just to the point professional. It felt like the move was always 100% under control. My wife and I would most highly recommend Silver Nest to anyone moving to Switzerland. Superb service!”

“Caroline provided us tremendous amount of support during our relocation to Switzerland starting from apartment search which she kicked off even before we came (and by all means was not easy!) through handling rental agreement, handover, legal registration, insurances and all other kinds support which is essentially required. We also received broad overview of how to maintain daily life and few very useful contacts for the future. Thanks to her we took great deal of pressure off our shoulders and were able to concentrate mostly on our new jobs. I can definitely recommend Silver Nest services to anyone who considers moving to Switzerland and want to have a smooth relocation”

“Highly recommend their services to anyone searching for a house in Zurich. I managed to find a place thanks to Caroline in a short amount of time. She was with me during the take-over and follow up on the house-related matters even after the take-over. She answered all my newbie questions about housing in Zurich and even applied for several options when I let her know on very short notice :) She is very kind, patient, and very responsive. She is as competitive as the Zurich housing market :) So definitely recommend them!”

“Caroline helped us enormously when relocating from the UK to Zurich. Helping us find a brilliant apartment and taking us through all the relevant paperwork to secure it as well as sorting all the initial requirements for us including insurance. The service was invaluable for us and made our relocation smooth and stress free, it is a brilliant help for new residents in Switzerland like us! No question was too much for Caroline and she was always fast in her responses. Such a worthwhile investment and I would highly reccommend!”

“Caroline helped us find an apartment in time in the competitive market of Zurich. She also joined us on our move in day to look at the apartment herself and make sure everything was ok. Since we didn’t speak any German she was a great help when talking to the owners and signing documents. Would definitely recommend anyone relocating to Zurich to consider Silver Nest .. it will only make your move easy 😊”

“Excelent service! Even though it was in Zug, our move was easily achieved thanks to the great work of Silver Nest Relocation.”

“Caroline made my transfer to Zürich as smooth as possible by helping me find an apartment aligned with my requests. When I contacted her, she was going to go on vacation for a few days but nonetheless she managed to provide me a list of apartments to visit and supported me while she was on vacation. This allowed me to sign the contract for the apartment I wanted thanks to her support from the other side of the world. Caroline is really professional and friendly, knows how to move on the housing market and can answer any questions you have about moving to Switzerland (from bureaucracy to which utility providers to use, etc..).”

“Caroline helped me find an affordable and nice apartment located close to my university when I was moving to Switzerland for studies. She accomplished this in a short time and was very helpful. I sincerely recommend Silver Nest Relocation to anyone moving to Zürich or the nearby area.”

“Moving to Zürich before Christmas felt a bit ambitious, but we managed to do it thanks to Caroline. It was very easy to communicate with her, and everything worked out extremely smooth. We recommend working with her as a person and as a professional. Thank you so much, Caroline!”

“Ich habe Frau Kaufmann mit der Vermietung meines kleinen Hauses in Zürich beauftragt. Mit Ihrer charmanten, kompetenten, seriösen und freundlicher Art hat Sie für mich die idealen Mieter gefunden und alles organisert und vorbereitet, so dass ich nur noch den Mietvertrag unterschreiben musste. Mit grosser Dankbarkeit - Lukas Erne”

“My family worked with Caroline over the spring and summer to help find an apartment and settle in to the Zurich area. Coming from the U.S. with two young children this was no easy task, and we are incredibly grateful for Caroline's support, patience and her help with questions both big and small regarding the move. Caroline is very knowledgeable about the local rental and real estate markets, often knows other agents (which is helpful!) and does a wonderful job of steering you in the right direction without being pushy. After helping us to secure a wonderful townhouse in Meilen, she equally helped us navigate all of the particular Swiss registrations, bank accounts, schools, etc. I should say the way things work is quite different than the U.S. and so it was really important to have Caroline's help. I would (and have) absolutely recommend to anyone coming to Zurich from abroad engage Caroline to ensure the smoothest possible process!”

“I had to relocate to Zurich in short time. Caroline gave me invaluable help in finding an house quite quickly, and it was also a good bargain. What I obtained this way, is simply not comparable to what I could have found myself: not for timing, not for characteristics, not for rental price. I could see real professional ability here. So the service costs money but it's worth it because in this way, it pays back by itself. I'm happy I've chosen this agency.”

“Excellent service from beginning to end. Very efficient and helpful. Takes the stress out of moving. Knows how to navigate the Swiss bureaucracy and finds solutions to any quirky request. Great communication, upbeat and friendly.”

“We have been very pleased with the services provided by Silver Nest, in particular its director Caroline Kaufmann. Caroline is very professional, knows how to navigate the Swiss real estate market and its processes, and is very easy to communicate with. Caroline was instrumental in helping us find an apartment in Zurich while we were still in the USA. I highly recommend her and her services.”
