Expert at your side
I will review building regulations, floor area ratio, building volume ratio, boundary setbacks and the effective buildability of the property for you – clearly, independently and within a few days.
When do you need a site and zoning analysis?
before you buy a property
if you don't want to properly assess an advertisement
if you need to understand planning and building law
when the floor area ratio (Ausnützungsziffer) is unclear
if you want to know if your budget matches the property
if you want to avoid expensive mistakes
The sooner you have clarity, the better you will negotiate and the more confidently decisions will be made.
Why a site and zoning analysis is crucial.
A professional site and zoning analysis reveals:
how high the floor area ratio (Ausnützungsziffer) will realistically be
how the building volume ratio (Baumassenziffer) works
What boundary setbacks apply?
whether the property is suitable for your project
whether the price is appropriate in relation to the potential living space
whether risks such as easements, building lines or special regulations exist
In short: It protects you from buying a property that doesn't suit your plans.
What you get from raumwert plus
Klare Machbarkeit statt Fachjargon
I review every relevant planning and building law requirement:
zoning ordinance (Zonenordnung), cantonal and municipal building regulations, floor area ratio calculation (Ausnützungsziffer), building volume ratio (Baumassenziffer), boundary setbacks, buildability, special design plans (Gestaltungsplan) and easements.
You get a clear answer: what is feasible and what is not.
Floor area ratio and building volume ratio explained and calculated in an easy-to-understand way
Viele Bauherren kennen den Begriff, aber nicht die Bedeutung.
Ich zeige anhand der relevanten Kennzahlen, wie viel Fläche realistisch gebaut werden darf.
Sie erfahren auch, ob es Besonderheiten gibt, etwa Ausnützungsziffer, Baumassenziffer, Spezialvorschriften oder Reduktionen.
Damit Sie das Potenzial und Risiko des Grundstücks verstehen.
Economic assessment: Is the purchase really worthwhile?
Die Frage ist nie: „Wie teuer ist das Land?“. Die Frage ist: „Wie viel darf ich darauf bauen?“
Ich bewerte das Grundstück nach wirtschaftlichen Kriterien und zeige, ob der Preis gerechtfertigt ist.
Identify risks early
Typische Stolpersteine beim Grundstückkauf:
falsche Annahmen zur Bebaubarkeit
zu optimistische Ausnützungsziffer
unerkannte Dienstbarkeiten
Waldabstände oder Baulinien
fehlende Erschliessung
Ich mache sichtbar, was andere übersehen.
Independent, experienced, architecturally sound
As an architect SIA, I think beyond mere numbers:
I assess usable floor space, volume, construction costs, and concept quality, as well as any subsequent design.
This makes the analysis more precise and reliable.

Here's what our customers say
The following feedback demonstrates how collaboration leads to sustainable project success. Read more Google reviews of raumwert plus GmbH.
Simon Käslin has supported me on several construction projects. He always does so with great professional expertise and an open, approachable manner.
Lorenz L., Zurich
The collaboration with raumwert+ was a complete success. [...] Thanks to their optimisations, we were able to gain more usable space, reduce construction costs, and increase quality – all without compromising the concept. A definite recommendation for anyone who wants to realise the full potential of their project.
Mark S., Thurgau
Simon reviewed the project for accuracy, clearly explained the key points, and drafted an objection. The construction plans were subsequently revised and adjusted. His assessment was thorough, clear, and very helpful. Highly recommended if you are looking for an independent and expert second opinion.
Balz K., St. Gallen
We first used raumwert plus's free basic screening to have our project reviewed from a fresh perspective. Even then, Simon clearly showed us where there was still untapped potential: especially in space utilization and construction costs. After that, the 360° project optimization went into much greater detail with tangible results: more usable space, smarter structures, and reduced costs. [...] For us , a clear win, both in terms of content and finances.
