The Federal Act on Second Homes (Lex Weber) limits the construction of second homes in municipalities where they account for more than 20% of the housing stock. This complex and constantly evolving regulation raises many questions for homeowners, investors, and real estate developers.

We advise and assist our clients, particularly through our Verbier office, in analyzing the compliance of real estate projects with this legislation and support them through administrative procedures and any resulting disputes.

Our services include, in particular:

  • analysis of the compliance of construction, conversion, or reconstruction projects with the Lex Weber;
  • advice regarding transactions involving properties subject to legislation on second homes;
  • assistance with administrative procedures related to building permits;
  • representation in appeal proceedings and disputes concerning second homes.
