Before buying from a distance

Compare several listings in the same neighbourhood; use the price per m² and the valuation shown on each listing.
Check ownership and any encumbrances in the land registry before any payment.
Hire a notary or lawyer where the property is located; they know the local rules.
Pay by bank transfer and keep proof of payment.

Legal and tax conditions depend on the property's location (entity, canton), its type and the buyer's citizenship, so this page is not legal advice. For a specific purchase, always consult a notary or lawyer.
