Top 3 Benefits Of Buying A Swiss Chalet And Moving To Switzerland

Many people would love to move abroad to another country but you maybe surprised by the number of people buying Swiss property. Countries such as Australia and Spain have become well known for the number of ex-patriots that have moved there. It is easy to see the appeal of these countries with their warm climiates and the fact that they speak a lot of English so what is it that is so attractive about Switzerland?

Switzerland's Location In Europe - Found at the heart of Europe, Switzerland is perfectly placed for visiting other countries. Rather than having to pay for a costly flight for a holiday, nearby countries can be reached easily and affordably by train or car. Europe's top tourist destinations like the Netherlands, France, Germany and Italy can all be visited very easily.

The Ski Season - The Swiss Alps border France, Italy and Austria and are home to some of the best skiing facilities in the world. These are incredibly popular areas for snowboarders and skiers to move to. With more and more affluent people taking up these sorts of extreme sports there has been an increase in people buying Swiss chalets as well as French ski property. Many people buy this type of alpine property purely to use during the ski season as most of them can be found in and around the ski resorts.

Its Good To Be Neutral - Switzerland has always remained neutral when it comes to war. The Swiss military has a limited number of professional soldiers but does have national conscription this could explain why they only tend to take part in peace keeping operations. As a result of this Switzerland do not use a large amount of public money to fund the military as it is not needed. As a result larger amounts of the Swiss public's taxes can be spent on public services. This is why Switzerland is home to some of the best public transport, healthcare and other services in the World.
