The demand for Swiss property
The Andermatt Reuss is one of Switzerland’s only regions that allow foreign investors to acquire properties without restrictions, allowing them the same rights to owning and holding properties as Swiss residents. All units are freehold, and purchasing properties have no stamp duty.

This township by Andermatt Swiss Alps (ASA) — the real estate management company led by Egyptian billionaire Sami Sawiris — receives persistently high demands from investors worldwide, including 5% of buyers from Asia. Supposedly, The Koya, a Japanese-inspired apartment, sold 95% of its units in under two weeks in 2021.
Not only will ASA handle all property sales matters of your apartment, but it will also manage the rental of your unit should you wish to join the rental programme to enjoy some passive income.
In addition, sustainability is a strong focus for this township, where all the apartments and buildings are built by the Minergie standard, a recognised Swiss benchmark for sustainability. Renewable energy sources generate electricity and heat, and the town operates four of its hydroelectric power stations and four wind turbines on top of mount Gütsch.
