Real estate expertise from a single source

Conversion and Renovation

We accompany conversion and renovation projects holistically – from the first idea to turnkey handover. Whether an apartment conversion in Zurich, the renovation of a condominium in Lucerne or the transformation of a property in Ticino: we coordinate all trades, represent the interests of the building owner and stand for quality, economic efficiency as well as cost and schedule reliability.

Apartment conversions: From a new bathroom or kitchen to a complete redesign of the floor plan: we plan and realise apartment conversions that sustainably increase living quality and market value – in owner-occupied homes as well as in rented multi-family buildings.
House renovations: Facade, roof, windows, building technology: we renovate single- and multi-family homes in stages or as a whole – energetically sensible, legally sound and economically well thought out.
Full refurbishments: In comprehensive core renovations, the building is stripped back to its load-bearing structure and rebuilt technically and aesthetically. This creates new-build quality within existing structures – often the most economical solution for older properties.
Cost management: Transparent cost estimates, binding budgets and ongoing cost control: our building owners always know where their project stands financially. Change orders are actively managed rather than passively administered.
Scheduling: Realistic construction programmes, cleanly coordinated trades and consistent schedule control ensure that conversions and renovations are handed over on time and in the agreed quality.

Project Development

ARTIAS understands real estate as a holistic business concept – with a well-thought-out strategy, strong identity and sustainable value creation model. As a real estate developer, we accompany landowners and investors from the initial site analysis through the feasibility study to the realisation of new construction and transformation projects throughout German-speaking Switzerland.

Land development: We analyse the location, building law and market potential of plots and develop viable development and utilisation strategies – from individual building land to entire sites.
Feasibility studies: Before investing, we create clarity: feasibility and profitability analyses show which project can be realised at the location and what return can realistically be expected.
New construction projects: From single-family homes and multi-family buildings to special properties such as the Hall of Switzerland: we develop and realise new construction projects with clear positioning and a solid cost framework.
Utilisation concepts: A property is as valuable as its use. We develop new utilisation and operating concepts that increase the yield, identity and long-term marketability of a property.
Profitability: Every development decision is financially sound: with robust investment calculations, sensitivity analyses and a clear view of costs, revenues and risks.

Construction Fiduciary and Project Management

As construction fiduciaries and owner's representatives, we represent the interests of the building owner independently, transparently and with clear responsibility. We take over construction project management from the planning phase to acceptance – so that owners and investors retain control over quality, costs and deadlines at all times, without getting lost in the day-to-day business of the construction site.

Tendering: We prepare precise tender documents, conduct award procedures, compare offers objectively and negotiate contracts in the interest of the building owner.
Contractor coordination: Architects, specialist planners, craftsmen and suppliers: we coordinate all parties involved, lead site meetings and ensure clear responsibilities and smooth interfaces.
Quality control: Regular site inspections, systematic defect recording and consistent acceptance procedures ensure that the agreed execution quality is actually achieved.
Construction cost control: We monitor budgets continuously, critically review invoices and change orders and regularly report the financial project status to the building owner – with no surprises at the end.
Owner protection: As an independent owner's representative, we consistently sit on the owner's side: in contractual matters, warranty claims and wherever interests need to be represented professionally.

Financing and Capital Procurement

Successful real estate development starts with viable financing. We support investors, companies and private building owners in structuring, planning and procuring financial resources – from the mortgage for a conversion to raising capital for larger development projects.

Banks & financing partners: We prepare financing dossiers to bank standards, hold discussions with banks and financing partners and negotiate terms that fit the project and the strategy.
Investors: For larger projects, we tap into private and institutional capital: with clear participation models, clean documentation and transparent communication with investors.
Business plans: Robust business plans with liquidity and profitability calculations form the basis of every financing commitment – we prepare them soundly, realistically and comprehensibly.
Financing models: Whether classic mortgage, construction loan, mezzanine capital or participation structure: we develop the financing model that optimally balances risk, return and flexibility.
Equity and debt capital: We structure the ratio of equity to debt capital on a project-specific basis and accompany the procurement of both components – from analysis to successful implementation.

Interior and Utilisation Concepts

A well-thought-out interior concept combines design, functionality and atmosphere into a harmonious whole. We develop individual spatial and utilisation concepts in which aesthetics and function go hand in hand – for private living spaces as well as for commercial areas.

Spatial concepts: Intelligent floor plans, harmonious proportions and well-thought-out spatial sequences: we design spaces that work in everyday life and leave a lasting impression.
Interior design: From furnishing plans and lighting concepts to colour schemes, we develop interior design that suits the property, its use and the personality of its residents.
Materialisation: Natural stone, wood, high-quality surfaces: the careful selection of durable materials shapes the atmosphere and value of a space – and pays off over decades.
Living quality: In the end, what counts is how a space feels: we create timeless, elegant and practical living spaces that noticeably increase living quality and sustainably enhance the value of the property.
