Platinum Market Watch by Niki Thomet Q4 - Flipbook - Page 3
Dear Readers,
I am pleased to share an important milestone for our team in the Zimmerberg region. In the most recent
nationwide revenue ranking 2025, our Engel & Völkers shop in the Zimmerberg region achieved 3rd
place across Switzerland. This accomplishment is a testament to the trust our clients and partners
place in us, the strength of our brand, and - above all - the exceptional commitment and expertise of our
advisors. Over the past years, we have consistently refined our strategic focus. One of the most
notable developments: new construction now accounts for 50% of our total transaction volume.
This reflects both market dynamics and our forward-looking positioning.
As demand for modern, energy-efficient homes with flexible layouts continues to rise, we have built
deep expertise in advising developers and guiding buyers through increasingly sophisticated newbuild opportunities. At the same time, we are particularly proud of a performance metric that speaks
volumes about our culture and structure: our team achieves the highest per-agent revenue within the
Engel & Völkers network in Switzerland. Productivity at this level is not a coincidence: it is the result of
rigorous market intelligence, disciplined client advisory processes, and a highly collaborative team
environment.
Building on this momentum, we are expanding our business activities into the Limmattal region. This
strategic step allows us to leverage synergies between high-growth residential corridors and provide
our clients with access to an even broader range of opportunities in the suburbs of Zurich. Looking
ahead, we have a substantial pipeline of new development projects scheduled to launch in the coming
quarters - spanning boutique luxury residences to architecturally distinctive multi-unit concepts in
Thalwil, Oberrieden, Langnau am Albis and Wollishofen. Simultaneously, our portfolio of existing
properties in high-potential micro-locations at the Platinum Coast remains exceptionally diverse. From
redevelopment opportunities and underutilized parcels to prime residential assets with long-term
appreciation potential, we are uniquely positioned to serve both investors and private homeowners
seeking strategic guidance.
Our ambition is clear: to remain the trusted partner and market leader for premium residential real
estate in and beyond the Zimmerberg region - combining local expertise with international reach. I
thank our discerning clients, partners, and our outstanding team for contributing to this success story.
Best regards,
Niki Thomet
