Rents continued to increase in December in Switzerland

Less strong increase in Zurich

As for cities, the increase in rents in Zurich was less drastic in 2024, at 4.5%, compared to previous years. “Even if we consider the canton of Zurich as a whole, the 4.8% increase in rents offered was certainly significant, but lower than in the previous year. This is probably explained by the fact that net immigration to the canton of Zurich was lower in 2024 than in 2023,” says Homegate.
