Start with the Fribourg geoportal
The cantonal geoportal supports searches by address, parcel or place name and offers thematic maps. Locate the correct plot first, then review the relevant data with its legend. Save a dated map extract and note the themes you consulted. A measurement drawn on the screen is useful for orientation; it should not become a declared living area without checking it against appropriate documents.
Prepare different evidence for a house and an apartment
For a house, gather floor plans, renovation invoices and information about heating, the roof and windows. List the garage, cellar and other ancillary spaces separately. For a condominium, add the allocation plan, ownership share, recent meeting minutes and information about the renovation fund. These help separate your unit from shared parts of the building. Include approved work that has not yet been carried out.
Record unanswered questions about land
For an undeveloped plot, prepare the cadastral plan, available planning documents and information about access and utility connections. List any intended uses that still need clarification with the municipality. For a developed property, also describe shared paths or outdoor spaces. A colour on a map alone does not establish whether an extension is feasible or justify assigning a value to that project.
Your enquiry with Suisse Homes
Our central contact in Steinhausen handles your enquiry. The first discussion covers the purpose of the valuation, available documents, the scope and terms of the service, and arrangements for a visit. Please also share your timetable. If a bank, authority or formal proceeding requires a particular type of report, its requirements need to be clarified first.
Official sources to prepare your enquiry
These sources describe the location and property records. They do not calculate an individual market value.
Frequently asked questions
Which area should I enter in the enquiry?
Give the living area from your available plans and identify its source. Describe land, balconies and ancillary spaces separately. If documents contain different figures, supply their labels rather than adding together areas that represent different measurements.
Can I combine French and German documents?
Yes. Match them to the same address and parcel and preserve the original area descriptions. Flag unclear terms for the discussion so that differently defined measurements are not treated as interchangeable.
How much does a property valuation cost?
Your enquiry is non-binding. The services and any fees are explained during the first discussion, before you decide. An enquiry does not oblige you to sell. Please mention any specific requirements for the report at the outset.
