📊 Basel Market Analysis
The Basel housing market shows a Price-to-Rent ratio of 51.1, calculated from an average home price of CHF1,350,000 against monthly rents of CHF2,200. A ratio above 18 suggests that renting and investing the savings into a diversified portfolio is likely the sharper financial play. With a CHF270,000 down payment, the alternative is investing that capital at a 5% annual return — a key factor our calculator models over 30 years.
