Building plots for sale in Switzerland

Prices and building rules for land in Switzerland shift with the canton and the altitude, from valley communes near a city to alpine sites bought for a second home. What you're allowed to build depends entirely on the local zoning plan.

What to weigh up

• Cantonal and communal zoning, which sets what can be built and how large it can be
• Lex Koller rules, especially relevant for a foreign buyer without Swiss residency looking at a plot for a second home
• Access to utilities: water, power and sewage connections aren't a given on every plot
• Slope, orientation and soil, which affect both building cost and future resale
