Personal property valuation

Property valuation in the canton of Bern

Looking to value a house, apartment or plot in the canton of Bern? Suisse Homes receives your enquiry through its Liebefeld office. Include the exact municipality and address: documents for Köniz alone are not enough for a property elsewhere in the canton.

Request a valuation

Start with the right municipality and plot

Liebefeld belongs to the municipality of Köniz, between Bern and the centre of Köniz. The precise address matters here. The official Köniz geoportal provides access to cadastral and zoning maps. These help identify the property and its setting; they do not provide its individual selling price.

House, apartment or land?

For a house, useful details include living area, construction year, completed renovations and condition. For an apartment, add its layout, floor level, outdoor space and information about shared building works. For land, the focus is on the plot, access to infrastructure and applicable planning documents. Plot size alone does not establish its possible uses.

Building footprint is not living area

In the Federal Register of Buildings and Dwellings, building area means the footprint, not the total living area. Keep these measurements separate. Any plans and renovation records you have can help complete the information for your conversation and property visit.

Beyond Köniz: find the relevant cantonal information

For a property outside Köniz, begin with information from the municipality concerned. The cantonal natural hazards service distinguishes detailed hazard maps from supplementary indicative maps. Note which document you are consulting for your plot and keep it with the plans available for your conversation. A colour on an overview map determines neither the property price nor its specific building possibilities. Ask the responsible specialist service about its implications for the particular property.

Frequently asked questions

How does a valuation in Bern or Köniz work?

An expert contacts you within 24 hours of your enquiry. Your first conversation covers the purpose, scope and next steps. Following the visit, you will generally receive a written market value assessment within a few days.

What does a valuation cost?

Your enquiry is non-binding. The services and any costs are explained during your first conversation, before you decide. Making an enquiry does not commit you to selling.

Can I have an asking price reviewed?

Yes. Select the option indicating that you wish to buy the property. If you need a formal appraisal for a specific purpose, mention this in your first conversation; a market value assessment does not automatically replace that appraisal.
