“THE Italian TREND to buy houses in mountain Switzerland, but also in the rest of the Confederation, is increasing” confirms Marco Rivolta, head of SRE Immobilien, from his office in Galleria Caspar Badrutt, in Sankt Moritz. “Until two years ago, my clients said they were looking for holiday houses, whereas in the last few months they have started to see the purchase of a house here as an investment in a safe-haven asset”. In other words: “They buy here because they want to invest their money in a stable country out of the Eurozone, with minimum public debt, cost of money and taxation. And 0.9% rate loans. ” “Switzerland is no longer only seen as the country of skiing, but as a safe haven for investments or a safe place to plan a brand new life”
