Hi all, we’ve decided on a project close to Broc, Canton Fribourg, and are planning to sign the contract this November. A bit of background: I’ve been living in Switzerland for over 20 years now, naturalised, but always in the German-speaking part before. We moved to this area 3 years ago and love it here. The thing is, it’s a new-build - construction hasn’t even started yet, planned delivery is early 2028. So this is really about the “buying off-plan” side of things: what should we look out for in the contract, payment schedule tied to construction stages, guarantees if the developer goes bust or delays happen, dealing with the notary, that sort of thing. Never bought any real-estate, so I am easy to scam… Anyone been through this kind of purchase in Fribourg (or Switzerland in general) recently? Would love to hear what surprised you, good or bad. Thanks a lot in advance! submitted by /u/Wuddel
