Homes in the canton of Geneva

What seekers usually check

• French is official. The canton is small: the city plus communes such as Carouge, Lancy, Vernier, Meyrin, and Onex. A listing “in Geneva” may be in one of those communes.
• Many people who work in Geneva live in Vaud or across the French border. A search for the canton of Geneva does not include Nyon or Annemasse.
• Seekers usually ask which commune, whether the rent is net, and how the viewing works. Crowded viewings are a habit people describe. Nestivi does not publish a vacancy rate.
• Purchase costs and the notary follow Geneva practice. A percentage you saw for Zurich or Vaud does not travel with you.
