Development & Value-Add

Our company has a diversified real estate portfolio primarily based in Switzerland and Central Florida (USA). Around 66% are investments and projects in the USA and 34% are in Switzerland.

sitEX focuses on sustainable and innovative project developments. We focus on the latent potential of undeveloped real estate and sites. We acquire, position and develop these properties and profit from the resulting increase in value.

Thanks to our many years of experience and our broad international network, we are able to identify interesting opportunities at an early stage and pursue them consistently with a focused strategy. Due to our lean corporate structure, we can dynamically adapt to sudden changes in the market environment during project developments and mitigate inherent risks.
