4. SALES PROCEDURE AND PRINCIPLES
Federal Office for Buildings and Logistics (FOBL) Properties
Sales Procedure and Principles:
I. Requirements for Purchase Bids
When real estate belonging to the Federal Office for Buildings and Logistics (FOBL) is offered for sale by public auction, purchase bids must be submitted in writing and signed, within the specified timeframe (postmark date or email date), to the department designated in the advertisement (published in print or online on a specialized portal), with the subject line "Purchase Bid for Condominium Apartment No. 5157".
Only bids submitted within the specified timeframe (postmark date or email date) and containing the following information will be considered:
- Name and address of the interested buyer; a change of bidder after the initial bid (e.g., switching from an individual to a legal entity or vice versa) will automatically disqualify the bidder from the sale;
- Price (unambiguously identifiable, absolute amount, unconditional, in local currency, with the option to offer a price lower or higher than the indicative sale price);
- Summary timeline for the transfer of profits and risks;
- Information regarding the intended use or repurposing;
- Unconditional acceptance of the sales procedure detailed in the sales documents, as well as the guidelines of the sales contract and this document, "OFCL Properties - Sales Procedures and Principles"; - Legally valid signature.
II. Sales Process
When bids have been submitted within the allotted time, the OFCL (Office of Land Registry and Construction) decides, generally within 30 days, either to sell the property to the highest bidder, to organize a new round of bidding, or to retain the property in the OFCL's real estate portfolio. Interested buyers are informed of their decision in writing. Proof of financing from a lending institution must be submitted in the first round.
Following the first round of bidding, and in the event of a second round, all interested parties who submitted a bid within the allotted time are invited again.
Subsequently, only bidders who submitted a bid in the previous round are invited to participate in subsequent rounds. Bids submitted in subsequent rounds must meet the same formal requirements as the first bid.
Submitted bids are processed according to the OFCL's established procedures.
During sales negotiations, it is forbidden to disclose information about submitted offers.
If the proposed price meets the expectations of the Federal Office for Housing and Construction (FOHC), the cantons and municipalities that submitted an offer or indicated their interest in the sale have the opportunity (in this order of priority) to acquire the property at the highest offered price (Art. 13 of the Ordinance on the Organization of the Cantons and Municipalities ... Conclusion of the Contract
The final decision regarding the sale is made only after receipt of the following supporting documents:
- Official identification (passport or identity card) for natural persons;
- Current extract from the commercial register for legal entities.
The OFCL reserves the right to require a 20% deposit within 10 days of the decision to sell. This amount will be deducted from the sale price upon conclusion of the sales contract. If, due to the fault of the interested buyer, no sales contract can be concluded, this deposit will not be refunded (penalty).
All costs related to the transfer of ownership, including transfer taxes, are borne by the buyer and seller in accordance with cantonal practice. Registration in the land register takes place after full payment of the agreed price or after obtaining an irrevocable promise of payment from a Swiss bank, which serves as a guarantee before the authentication of the sales contract.
It is the buyer's responsibility to obtain any necessary planning permissions for the future use or conversion of the property.
The buyer is also responsible for taking out the required cantonal property and belongings insurance policies in a timely manner. The Swiss Confederation insures itself, which is why there is no insurance policy.
