The reference interest rate for residential rents in Switzerland remains unchanged at 1.75 percent for the next three months, as announced by the Federal Housing Office. A potential reduction is anticipated in March, which could entitle many tenants to lower rents.
Two-thirds of tenants may soon qualify for rent reductions as the Zurich Cantonal Bank forecasts a drop in the benchmark mortgage rate by March 2025. This change will benefit those who faced recent rent increases, particularly from institutional landlords, who have historically passed on such hikes more frequently than private landlords. Additionally, many tenants who have not previously requested rent decreases may also take action in light of the anticipated rate changes.

Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
