Swiss Expat Realtor

"Moving to a new country can be a stressful and scary experience, and moving from Brazil to Zurich was no exception. There were so many things to consider, and I didn't know where to start. Luckily, I found Swiss Expat Realtor, and they made the entire process much easier than I could have ever imagined. From the very beginning, Ozgur was extremely helpful and supportive. He understood my needs and concerns and guided me through the entire relocation process, from finding an house to signing the lease. Ozgur has a deep knowledge of the Zurich real estate market and was able to find me a beautiful house with a lake view that was exactly within my budget. He also helped me navigate the Swiss rental process, which can be quite complicated for foreigners. Thanks to his help, I was able to secure a house before I arrived in Switzerland, which was a huge relief. I was very impressed with Swiss Expat Realtor's attention to detail. Their valuable assistance helped me adapt quickly to my new life in Zurich. I am extremely happy with Swiss Expat Realtor's services. They are professional, attentive, and genuinely care about their clients. I highly recommend them without hesitation."

"We just moved to Zurich for a year long posting, and brought our 3 kids along with us. With 3 kids in tow and such a short term rental, we definitely do not stand a high chance in this competitive rental market. Moreover, we didn't know how competitive it is and started our search pretty late! We are so thankful we met Ozgur from Swiss Expat Realtor, who managed to find us the perfect place in such a short time, and before we arrived. Ozgur viewed the apartments for us, took very clear videos, and gave us his honest opinions on which apartment suits our needs the most. Thanks to his hard work, we found a furnished apartment with the nicest landlords. This has definitely made settling into a new country much easier. We do not speak or understand German, and Ozgur was of great help throughout the rental process and while we were settling in - he always just a phone call or text away. We would definitely recommend Swiss Expat Realtor to anyone who is relocating to Switzerland and would like a smooth and stress free search for your new home!"

"We had an excellent experience with Swiss Expat Realtor! They helped us find an apartment in Basel quickly and professionally. Their knowledge of the local market, attention to detail, and proactive approach made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Thanks to their expertise, we were selected by the landlord for every apartment we applied to. Highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a hassle-free relocation to Switzerland!"

"Amazing service! Ozgur and the team have done an excellent job by helping us to find our apartment. Relocating from another country is not easy especially if you are not in the country to make the views (like in my case) but with Swiss Expat Realtor everything was smooth and stress-free. From the beginning to the end, working side by side with Swiss Expat Realtor was absolutely an amazing experience. The customer care, kindness, advice, attention to detail, and constant updates were remarkably unique. Finding an apartment in Switzerland is known for being very hard but with Swiss Expat Realtor that feeling was never present, instead, it made us feel at ease at all times. I would definitely recommend their service!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Swiss Expat Realtor during my relocation to Zürich, and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience. From the very first consultation, Swiss Expat Realtor demonstrated a deep understanding of the local market and was incredibly attentive to my needs. Communication: One of the standout aspects of working with Swiss Expat Realtor was their excellent communication. They kept us updated at every step of the process, promptly answering all my questions and addressing any concerns we had. Expertise: Swiss Expat Realtor had an impressive knowledge of the neighborhoods, providing insightful recommendations based on my preferences and lifestyle. They took the time to understand what we were looking for and tailored the search accordingly. Negotiation: When it came time to negotiate the lease, Swiss Expat Realtor advocated on our behalf and advised what was customary for the market – and what wasn’t. Follow-Up: After moving in, Swiss Expat Realtor checked in to make sure everything was going smoothly, which added a nice touch to the overall experience. It was clear that they genuinely cared about our satisfaction and well-being. Overall, we highly recommend Swiss Expat Realtor for anyone looking for relocation assistance. Their dedication, knowledge, and support made it possible to find a nice apartment in a very, very challenging market. Thank you for making our move less stressful!"

"Ozgur and his team helped us a lot finding our nice apartment. They listened to our needs, searched and visited the apartments while we were still abroad and kept us informed every moment. Without their help we would have not been able to find an apartment in such a short time. They explained us many things about house rules in Swizerland and accompanied us during the review of the rental contract and the handover of the apartment. Thanks a lot! :)"

"We were very grateful for the effort and expertise of Enola and the Swiss Expat relator. We had a challenging situation and even with additional curve balls, Enola was able to help us find something that suited all of our needs. We were very happy with the service and the ability to ask questions through out the whole process. Moving overseas with a small family is a huge undertaking, but Enola and the team made it as seamless as possible. Would recommend."

"The experience with Swiss Expat Realtor was best in class from start to finish, they will take care for you from A to Z on everything and help you relocate even in one of the toughest markets such as Zug, probably without them I'd still be searching and sending applications to this date. The whole process took me just north of 2 months from start to finish and I couldn't be more happy to have trusted them with finding my apartment and handling all the paperwork and nuance needed that as an expat might be hard to know. The service is fairly priced and the support is thorough and ready to answer whatever questions whenever, don't hesitate to reach out if you are still in doubt! Thanks again!"

"I used Swiss Expat Realtor to find my apartment in Kilchberg. Ozgur and his team were super helpful in arranging and accompanying me to viewings. They also went above and beyond in addressing all issues with the building. I highly recommend them."

"Ozgur and the Swiss Expat Realtor team were indescribably crucial to our move to Zurich. We were moving with two pets and shipping furniture from the United States so needed an apartment as far in advanced as possible to plan properly. Ozgur made the search process a breeze, giving us the necessary context to look for the right places in the right neighborhood and adapting our search criteria as we learned and better understood the Zurich market. Once we found a place he simplified the lease review and signature process to make it easy from abroad. Then, after we had signed, Ozgur did not hesitate to pick up the keys, meet us the day we arrived, and welcome us to the city. He has answered our many questions and been a steadying, friendly, and professional presence during the chaos of an international move. We are eternally grateful to him and his team and could not recommend them more."

"Relocating to a foreign country can be a daunting and scary experience. In my case it was even a bigger challenge since I was looking for an apartment in Zurich that has a very difficult and competitive market. And if that wasn't enough, I only speak English. I was lucky enough though to find Swiss Expat Realtor and I can't express enough how exceptional the whole experience was. From start to finish, Ozgur and Enola were incredibly helpful and trustworthy, making what could have been a stressful process entirely seamless and enjoyable. Ozgur's extensive knowledge of the Zurich housing market and his keen eye for detail ensured that he understood my needs and that I find the perfect apartment that met my needs and preferences. His professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction, and he went above and beyond to address all my concerns promptly and thoroughly. Enola, was also fantastic since she supported the entire process. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to relocate to Switzerland."

"I had the pleasure of working with Ozgur to find my perfect apartment in Zurich, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, he was incredibly professional, responsive, and attentive to my needs. Zurich’s real estate market can be competitive, but Ozgur made the process smooth and stress-free. He really listened to what I was looking for and found several great options for me to consider. Thanks to Ozgur expertise, I found a fantastic apartment that fits both my lifestyle and budget. If you're looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and friendly realtor in Zurich, I can highly recommend!"

"My experience with Swiss Expat realtor has been incredible! In the beginning before we found Swiss Expat realtor we were looking for houses for ourselves but became a nightmare, plus two dogs it wasn’t making things easier. It was a mission impossible! Then we found Swiss Expat realtor and everything started to become easier and smoother and with all the help from Ozgur and the Swiss Expat team we achieved our goal and expectations. Great professionals and most importantly better people!! We really appreciate your work and commitment to us. We are really grateful!!!"

"When I first began searching for an apartment in Zurich I quickly learned that the market is very competitive, especially for foreigners looking to relocate. In my first meeting with Ozgur he helped me understand the market challenges and the timelines I should expect. I was very grateful for his candid approach in educating me while also collecting information about the kind of home I wanted. What seemed like a difficult and intimidating process became much easier once I started working with Ozgur! Within 3 days he had found several potential options that closely matched my criteria. One option was not being advertised mainstream, which I would not have found without his help. This option was a great fit for my partner and I, and ultimately the apartment we rented. From start to finish the process was very quick taking barely one month! Ozgur is a true professional that genuinely cares about his clients. We love our home and we are so happy to be settled for the holidays! I highly recommend Ozgur and his team to both Expats and locals searching for their new home. We will definitely use Ozgur’s services again in the future."

"An unbeatable experience. I recently got a job in Zurich and I knew that the language barrier and being remotely would make it impossible to find an apartment. Ozgur and Juan (who also speaks Spanish) managed to find me an apartment in record time. They have been very attentive and have provided 24/7 support."

"Ozgur has been an incredible partner to help me find a flat in Zurich from Paris and I really couldn’t have done it without him. Through all this process he assisted me with professionalism, patience and kindness: from the introductory (free) zoom where he evaluated my personal situation and expectations, to visits on my behalf of flats with detailed videos and comments, regular zooms to catch up, help with all kind of administrations, picking me up and driving me around when I arrived in Zurich… I highly recommend using his services. Thanks for all your help!!"

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Without this service I would have been super stressed, as we are moving to Zurich and we don't speak German, we live far (that makes it impossible to visit and apply for houses) and we don't have experience in Swiss German part of Switzerland, and rules for applying for a house change a bit from Geneva's ones. Since day one we could feel we were in good hands, we were respected, heard and reassured many many times. Özgür was always very honest and helped us set expectations. He provided great guidance and support throughout all the process and more than that, he got us a place in a matter of weeks. Always with our best interests in mind he got us a great house that me and my family will call home for many years hopefully. I totally recommend their services and wish them the best for the future with lots of success."

"Ozgur was really helpful in finding us an apartment in Zurich. We had been struggling for a couple of months and he was responsive, helpful and diligent in identifying an apartement for us in around 2 weeks. Highly recommended!!"

"Ozgur and Enola helped me to find a new flat in Switzerland within two weeks from the moment we came in contact. They helped with the whole process from the beginning. With the application, flat inspections, handling the communication in German with the landlord and even with the handover of the apartment. Overall, this service is essential for anyone coming from abroad as it takes away half the stress that comes with relocations."

"Amazing service. Extremely reliable people. I can definitely recommend the company Swiss Expat Realtor. They helped me with finding an apartment in Basel-they checked my preferences first and accordingly matched with the offers on the market. Due to my limited time during the day,they took care of making appointments,writing emails,making calls and at the end assisting me with the whole process of signing contract and picking up the keys in person. Absolutely professional service saved my time and made me feel confident and comfortable with the whole process.Simply the best!"

"I had an outstanding experience with this real estate agency, especially a big thanks to the incredible assistance provided by Swiss Expat Realtor. Within just a month, they helped me find the perfect apartment by providing invaluable information about immigration, tirelessly searching for flats that matched my needs and budget, all while navigating a highly competitive market. Swiss Expat Realtor is the epitome of professionalism, friendliness, and genuine care for their clients. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in search of a home in Switzerland. Thank you for making the process of moving so smooth and efficient!"

"We are a young couple who moved from Italy only 3 months ago. We were lucky to find a 3 months sublet to start with , but while we searched for a new home we struggled immensely and as it often happens when you’re young and a foreigner, our applications were constantly refused. Until we found this agency. Thanks to their professionalism, great effort and extreme kindness, we found our perfect home in less then a month. Ozgur, you’ve been essential, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"

"I am really grateful to this company for helping me find a flat in Zurich. Until I started looking for a place to live as a foreigner with no previous experience here, I didn't realise how hard it is to get a decent place to live in the city. You have to write a great letter, get someone to vouch for you, go to the viewings (which usually take place during working hours) and even then, when you do apply, there's huge competition (like 100-200 people applying for the same apartment) that doesn't favour a foreigner, even with a decent salary. Özgür and his team helped me through all these steps and managed to get me an apartment in less than a month. As well as being a professional in his field, he is a genuinely warm and sincere person who will answer your questions at any time of the day. I can't say enough how grateful I am for their work, I never doubted for a second that I could trust their process. I would recommend them to anyone trying to find a place to live in Zurich or Zug, even if you are not yet in Switzerland - the work and viewing starts from a distance."

"Top Service We are moving to Zurich as a Family and with a low budget. We were using other company and getting no results at all. Time was ticking and we were getting very worried … We ended up finding Ozgur and team, and it was a game changer for us! We started by discussing our needs, and right away Ozgur made us aware of the difficulties, and the better locations for our intents. He made sure to actually meet me in person to better know me and our situation, and I can only say it was an absolute pleasure. We then started looking. He always received very well our requests and needs. He took care of all the communication with the landlords as we don’t speak german, helped with all the documentation need, even did visits on our behalf, everything! Seriously, everything! In around 1 month he succeeded finding our family a home!!! We could not be happier with this service, and I would not hesitate to recommend Ozgur and his team to everyone!"

"First class experience! Would recommend Swiss Expat Realtor to anyone relocating to Switzerland!"

"The best one I've experienced so far! And I know what I'm talking about having experienced other agents/agencies before. Most of them contact you once in a full moon and they're not creating any proximity with the client. With Swiss Expat Realtor (shoutout to Ozgür!), you get often in contact with him. He sends you propostions to better understand your requirements and adjusts the research accordingly (He already asks these requirements in writing but does it also visually to have a clearer view of what you wish). Everything went smoothly and we found our appartment in Kanton Zug within two months which is a miracle knowing the very hard market over there. Greetings to Swiss Expat Realtor, keep up the good work! :-)"

"Ozgur and Evelyn are a solid team! They take the time to understand my unique situation by asking the right questions before proposing solutions that are well-researched and insightful. If you're moving to Switzerland and need support, these two are the way to go. Highly recommended!"

"l have been looking for several months to find a flat in and around Zurich for a reasonable price (it is almost an impossible task). Ozgur helped me greatly with a professional application and utilising his personal contacts with the agencies to promote my application. This made a huge difference. He is very professional and dedicated. Happy to recommend!"

"Absolutely recommended! Great support with finding an apartment for myself fast and handling all the details. And answering all questions for a non-Swiss! Always very friendly and reachable. Anytime again!"

"We couldn't have moved to Switzerland without its help, so I'd really recommend it to anyone looking for a new apartment. Really organised and crital clear during all the process, if I could give more than 5 stars I would."

"Excellent experience with them! I highly recommend Swiss Expat Realtor. They listen to your needs and keep a very efficient communication with you throughout the whole process until you get the keys. Professional and very friendly!"

"Ozgur and Juan took excellent care of us and helped us in finding our place quickly. They are very responsive and I recommend them for anyone looking for help."

"Ozgur hat uns dabei geholfen, eine schöne Wohnung in Zürich Seefeld zu finden - mit nur 2 Wochen Suche!!! Das muss Rekord sein. Hut ab und große Empfehlung!"

"It was a pleasure to work with Ozgur and I would recommend using their services if you are overseas and need a permanent place before arriving to Zurich. But in my case (being in Zurich already for sometime), I think the service was overpriced and did not exactly match my expectations. Despite finding an apartment on my own and handling other things like handover, I still got a bill for 80% of my monthly rent. I don’t think this was fair, considering I feel that I done 50% of the job myself. Additionally, in about two weeks of working together, I did not get offers for inspections besides two listings already listed for a while online on popular real estate websites. Meanwhile, I myself scheduled at least 8 inspections for the upcoming weeks. There’s surely a need for better monitoring from the company side. But I still greatly appreciate putting up the application in a correct and appealing way, as well as helping to understand the contract and clarifying some of the aspects with the real estate agency."
