Most property sales in Switzerland are known as forward sales, meaning completion takes place at a later date. A deed of sale is signed before a notary, formalising the agreement between the buyer and the seller, and setting out the terms and conditions of the transaction. The signature of the deed is usually accompanied by an initial payment (deposit), often amounting to 10%.
On the due completion date, the buyer pays the remaining balance of the purchase price. The notary then arranges for the new ownership to be entered in the land register.
There is also a type of sale known as a direct sale, in which the full purchase price is paid on the day the deed is signed and ownership is transferred immediately
