What types of mortgage are available
There are various mortgage models on the Swiss market. A distinction is made between fixed-rate mortgages with a fixed term and a fixed rate of interest, and variable-rate mortgages without a fixed term and with a variable rate of interest. The SARON mortgage has no fixed term and also has a variable interest rate. Read more about differences, benefits and risks here.
Fixed-rate mortgage
A fixed-rate mortgage is right for you
- if you prefer your interest payments to remain the same
- if you want to calculate your budget accurately
- if you would like to benefit from the current low interest rate environment
- If you wish to hedge against rising interest rates
Variable mortgage
A variable mortgage is suitable for you
- if you want to take advantage of the current capital market interest rates
- if you would like to benefit from interest rate cuts
- if you want to be able to switch to a fixed-rate mortgage at any time
- if you would like to amortise (repay) your mortgage directly
SARON mortgage
The SARON mortgage has no fixed term and no fixed interest rate. The variable interest rate is based on the SARON (Swiss Average Rate Overnight). The SARON has existed since 2009 and is calculated on the basis of completed transactions and binding quotes (purchase and sale prices) in the Swiss money market.
A SARON mortgage is right for you
- if you want to benefit from interest rates that remain low or fall
- if you wish to participate in the current interest rate trend during the selected term
