The buyer who knows first whether the figures hold bids first.

Institutional buyers want to place around CHF 19.8bn in 2026. The market offers about CHF 14bn (JLL, 2026).

An external valuation takes days and pays off for the two dossiers that deserve it. Cardo is the step before: you decide which two those are and file the other fourteen with reasons.

Seven checks for your IC.

Cardo does the arithmetic

Cardo checks the exposé's claims against cantonal and municipal data, the commercial register and tenancy law.

Read the memo

Verdict, fair entry price, open risks and questions for the seller. As a link and as a PDF.

Every figure in the memo names its source.

Cardo works from cantonal and municipal data and shows in the memo where each figure comes from. The memo says what is established, what is an assumption and what is missing. The same dossier leads to the same finding.

What Cardo can't do today

Parcel-exact zoning exists only for the City of Zurich so far. Elsewhere Cardo works with zone bands.

Tax and rent data cover about 80 municipalities.

We check the counterparty only when it is a company.

Cardo replaces neither a formal valuation nor legal advice.

We take no money from sellers.

Praeclarum holds no broker mandates and earns no commissions. The memo goes to the party whose capital is at risk. That is why it can say no.

Radar: forced sales with register data.

Each day the Radar reads the auction notices of the debt enforcement and bankruptcy offices in the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce. Where a notice gives a street address, the Radar sets zone, density ratio, ownership restrictions and building data from the official registers beside it. The list is free. The register data costs CHF 29 a month.
