Estate agency in Champel-Florissant (Genève)

The average price of the 1206 sector stands at around 16,500 CHF/m², with medians very close between apartments (around 16,500) and houses (around 16,670). The Champel plateau rises to 20,000 CHF/m² for the best buildings, Florissant and Malagnou sit between 13,000 and 19,000, La Roseraie between 12,000 and 16,500.

It is a sector of the City of Geneva, with its own postcode (1206). It has a distinct property market — hence this dedicated page — but its taxation (45.5 centimes), its schools and its administration belong to the City of Geneva.

The one that tells the Champel plateau apart from Florissant, Malagnou and La Roseraie — four neighbouring markets with different values. Rousseau 5, a Left Bank agency since 2012, follows every transaction recorded in the sector and knows its buildings one by one.

The city average is around 75 days. In Champel, a correctly priced apartment of standing usually sells faster: family and international demand is constant and supply limited.

In three minutes on our online valuation page, or with a Rousseau 5 broker who visits free of charge within 48 hours. In this sector, the floor, the Salève view, the state of the common areas and the condominium's renovation fund weigh heavily on the value.

The brokerage commission is discussed according to the property, the mandate and the support expected: there is no single rate. It is only due upon the successful sale, and it is set out in writing in the mandate.

Exclusivity delivers the best results: in a sector where buyers follow the market closely, a property listed everywhere on different terms immediately loses credibility.

As the sector belongs to the City of Geneva, the municipal rate is 45.5 additional centimes. On resale, Geneva's IBGI applies according to the holding period (from 50% under 2 years to 2% beyond 25 years).

Allow around 4% of the price: 3% registration duties, Land Registry fees and the notary's fees. These costs are paid on top of your equity.

An asbestos survey for buildings predating 1991 — almost the entire stock of the district, largely built between 1900 and 1970. Add the condominium documents (regulations, accounts, renovation fund), the Land Registry extract and the plans.

Taxation of the gain is deferred: the heir takes over the deceased's holding period — a family apartment held for decades reaches the floor IBGI rate of 2%. Rousseau 5 assists estates with a neutral valuation.

The average gross rental yield runs around 2.8%, with permanent rental demand sustained by the HUG, the clinics and the schools. Letting is safe; selling captures a steady gain. A broker works through both scenarios.

A sale without public advertising, reserved for qualified buyers. Frequent for the plateau's large apartments of standing, whose owners wish to avoid pointless visits. Rousseau 5 drives this market with its base of active buyers.

The Champel plateau around Parc Bertrand for the buildings of standing and the Salève views; Florissant for quiet residential living close to Conches; Malagnou for its grand villas, its park and the Museum; La Roseraie for direct access to the HUG.

Established Geneva families, doctors and professionals drawn by the proximity of the HUG, and international executives looking for a large apartment close to the schools. A stable clientele that buys for the long term.
