Usual range

In Switzerland, broker commissions are often roughly in the range of around 2 to 3 percent, depending on the region, property and scope of services.

Distribution is negotiable

In many cases, the seller bears the commission. However, there are constellations in which a part is agreed differently or included in the price.

Don't compare blindly

What is important is not just the percentage, but what is actually included in the mandate: valuation, marketing, inspections, negotiations and closing support.

This calculator is a Swiss guide and not a binding offer. Region, contract, VAT, scope of services and sales model can make the effective commission look different in detail.

Important for property owners

The commission is only part of the decision

A low rate is of little use if the pricing strategy, marketing or sales support remain weak. Conversely, a higher commission is not automatically too expensive if it reduces real effort and improves the market position.

Best next step

First clarify the value range, then compare broker offers

As soon as the market value range, sales target and property location are clearer, commission, scope of services and sales channel can be compared much better.
