Welcome to the Swiss Riviera: Coldwell Banker® opens its doors in Montreux

Coldwell Banker® Continues to Strengthen Its Presence in the World’s Most Prestigious Destinations

Nestled between the majestic Swiss Alps and the serene waters of Lake Geneva, this gem of the Swiss Riviera is now part of our global network. The new office, located in the heart of this exclusive region at Avenue des Alpes 10, Montreux, will operate under the name Coldwell Banker Only Realty – No Bank Swiss Riviera. This addition represents a significant step in the brand’s global growth strategy, bringing 119 years of expertise in luxury real estate to one of the most sought-after and elite regions in Europe.

The arrival in Montreux represents more than just a new address—it’s a strategic expansion into a market that epitomizes luxury, stability, and the international lifestyle that defines our clientele.

Why Montreux?

Montreux is not only renowned for its unmatched beauty along the shores of Lake Geneva and its vibrant cultural life, but also as a high-end real estate market that continues to grow. Recognized as one of Europe’s most exclusive property markets, luxury homes in the area range between CHF 15,000 and CHF 30,000 per square meter, with a significant increase in transactions exceeding CHF 10 million.

Switzerland’s economic stability, exceptional quality of life, and global appeal have made it a key destination for discerning buyers seeking a second home or new residence in the heart of Europe. Montreux, with its prestige and global visibility, is a city that combines elegance, privacy, and privileged access to world-class services.

The Montreux office will be led by Olivier Fahrni.

A Visionary Expansion

This first step in Montreux is only the beginning. Plans are already underway to continue growing in other high-profile Swiss locations such as Geneva, Zurich, and exclusive ski resorts. This move marks the start of an ambitious expansion phase in Switzerland, reinforcing our commitment to the Swiss market and its increasing demand for specialized, high-end real estate advisory services.

The vision is clear: to deliver world-class service, with a personalized approach and deep local market expertise.
