Introducing SIPA

Swiss International Property Advisors S.A. (SIPA) is a dynamic and entrepreneurial private equity group focused on real estate investments in European emerging markets.

SIPA is a Swiss registered company with its main office in Lausanne, canton Vaud.  We offer investors and end-users access to unique real estate projects in new and growing markets.  Through our network of international developers and construction firms, we select high-end residential building projects in prime locations with affordable entry prices and very high building and design standards. 

Off plan property is a property that has not yet been fully constructed. Some developers offer the chance for buyers / property investors to purchase a property at a very early stage, often before the actual construction work has started but always after all legal requirements are met (such as building permits, land acquisitions etc).  This model benefits both the project developers as they can secure funds and sales before the start of the construction work, and also the buyer, as they will usually be able to purchase at a lower rate with favorable payment options.

SIPA SA has made this professional form of investment accessible for most types of   investors and traditional home buyers through off plan investment participation.

The real estate market in Western Europe, especially Scandinavia, has experienced significant rises over the last decade. Many home owners have seen their personal fortunes increase through the accumulation of considerable equity in their homes.

But those who have truly earned the greatest profits from the rises in real estate values have been building contractors, developers and project investors. In contrast to home owners, they have had the opportunity to realize profits from the rises due to a much more flexible approach to the real estate market.  Until now, it has been difficult for typical investors to gain access to this type of investment. The projects are rarely publicly announced, due diligence (exploration of legal aspects, guarantees, building permits, etc.) is extensive and costly, and the minimum investment has been out of the range of the large majority of investors.
