Why Baulens

Good housing is scarce and contested.

In Canton Zurich, a rental apartment is listed online for just 14 days on average, well below the Swiss average of 24 days.

  1. Marketed directly, rarely listed

    New residential projects are marketed mainly through their own project websites. Many never appear on the major portals at all, or only once direct marketing has left a few remaining units.

  2. Sold before the listing appears

    What you see on the portals is often just what's left over. The best floor plans, the best view, a full selection are gone before the project even reaches the property portals. Those who are early get the pick. Those who are late take what's left.

  3. How to be the first to know

    Baulens continuously searches for new residential projects across Canton Zurich, shown on one interactive map, enriched with data on location, municipality, and more. One click takes you to the official project website, where you can register directly, before most home seekers even know about it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Baulens serves two main audiences: private buyers and renters who want to know about new residential projects early, and investors who want to systematically track the Zurich new-build market.

Baulens shows new residential construction projects in Canton Zurich: planned, approved, and under construction, covering both for-sale and rental units. This includes apartment buildings, condominiums, residential developments, and semi-detached homes. Purely commercial or industrial buildings are excluded.

Portals like Homegate show individual listings, and a new-build project usually appears there only once direct marketing is already underway and the most attractive units are often already gone. Baulens captures projects from the moment marketing first goes live, so often earlier, and links directly to the official project website. Instead of scattered results, you get a map-based, ad-free overview of the entire Zurich new-build market, enriched with official key data, municipality statistics, and geodata. The difference comes down to timing: you see a project while you still have a real choice, not only once just the leftover units remain.

From public registers and the developers' own official project websites. The systematic linking of these sources is the core of Baulens. You see what's being built where, and reach the original source with a single click.

That's by design: Baulens is your guide to the original source, not an image gallery. Every project links straight to the developer's official website. That's where the high-quality renderings, floor plans, and all other documents live, complete and up to date. It also respects the copyright of the developers, who own that material.

Our goal is the most complete overview possible. We combine public registers with active research and continuously add new projects. If you notice a project we've missed, we'd appreciate the tip.

Data is updated automatically on a rolling basis. In parallel, we actively look for new project websites and add them as soon as they go live, so new projects appear on the map as early as possible.

Yes, and no credit card required. Sign up, explore the map, and open three project previews with full details for free. There's no unlimited full trial; for ongoing searches you then choose a plan. The monthly option has no minimum term and can be cancelled anytime, effective at the end of the current billing month.

Yes, all subscriptions can be cancelled at any time from your account, with no notice periods and no hidden conditions. After cancelling, you keep full access until the end of your paid period. No prorated refunds are issued for already-paid periods. Instead, you keep your access until the very end.
