Should I buy or rent a home in Geneva?

Answer this Question

If you have not spent a lot of time in Geneva, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...

"Buying a home in Geneva can be a great investment, as the city is known for its high quality of life and strong economy. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in Geneva, which is one of the highest in the world. Renting a home in Geneva may be a more cost-effective option, as it allows you to enjoy the city without the long-term commitment of buying a home. Additionally, renting a home in Geneva can provide you with more flexibility, as you can move to a different area of the city or even a different country if your circumstances change," wrote a member who made the move to Geneva, Switzerland.
