Request checklistQuestions about selling real estate in Bern
What does it cost to sell a property in the canton of Bern?
The cost of selling a property in the canton of Bern is made up of several components. The estate agent's commission is usually between 2 and 3 percent of the sale price. In the canton of Berne, there is also a transfer tax of 1.8 percent, which is borne equally by the buyer and seller. There are also notary fees and, if applicable, costs for the deletion of existing liens. In practice, owners who market their property professionally often achieve additional proceeds that significantly exceed the estate agent's costs. Immoanker advises you transparently on all costs incurred - before you decide to sell.
How long does it take to sell a property in the canton of Bern?
The time it takes to sell depends on the location, property type and pricing strategy. In sought-after locations in Bern - for example in the city of Bern, in Thun or in the Seeland - a house or apartment can be sold within a few weeks. On average, our clients achieve a successful sale in 18 days. The right pricing strategy from the outset is crucial: Properties that are priced too high remain on the market for much longer and lose their appeal. A well-founded property valuation forms the basis for the optimum sales price.

Secondly, strategic marketing with professional photography, video and a targeted approach to buyers - it has been proven that professionally marketed properties sell faster and at higher prices. And thirdly, conducting negotiations: experienced estate agents achieve on average 3 to 5 percent better results than private sellers because they know the market dynamics and can create targeted competition among interested parties.
