Newcomers often underestimate the "Swiss Application Standard."
Imagine standing in line with 50 other applicants for a single apartment. In cities like Zurich, you have 15 minutes to impress.

Relocation Agencies use relationships with property managements (Régies) to vouch for your solvency, effectively bypassing the algorithm.
Every Swiss canton operates differently. Know your market before you search.
Insider concepts every newcomer needs to master.
