The world of exclusive living.

Annelies Wüst runs the real estate company Wüst und Wüst, based in Küsnacht, together with her husband Herbert and with CEO Beat Hürlimann. She has been active in the brokerage of villas and upscale residential properties for a good 30 years. She spoke with David Strohm of NZZ Residence about the special challenges of brokering properties in the upscale segment.

Like other areas of life, the way we use our homes is subject to constant change. If you compare today’s new buildings with properties from the 1970s or 1980s, for example, it quickly becomes apparent that the architectural style, the room sizes and the room concept (floor plan) have changed considerably.

Wüst-und-Wüst magazine has asked Monika Ruf Hollenweger, a notary specialist at Wüst und Wüst Küsnacht for more than 15 years, why her company decided to have an internal notary specialist office and what advantages such a solution offers, especially for buyers and sellers of properties in the high-end segment.
