The Swiss Federal Government held a referendum on March 11, 2012 and a new law passed relates to Second-Homes in Switzerland.

The new law becomes effective on 1 January 2013 and relates specifically to the NEW CONSTRUCTION of second-homes – but not the redevelopment of existing buildings. It imposes a 20% cap on all second-homes, applies to all owner types (Swiss, Residency Permit holders and exempted foreigners) and will not be retrospective to existing projects/properties. For most resorts the possibility of building 'new second-homes' is therefore effectively zero until the ratio has fallen to 20%.

Prices are already speculated to increase on existing and new build off plan properties, if you were planning to purchase a property in Switzerland, this might be a good time to buy in Switzerland and will be one of the last opportunities for a long time to purchase in Switzerland.
