This is not exhaustive, and you can add other website to this list, but here are some websites to find an appartment or have an idea of the prices.

Most populars
www.homegate.ch (Fr/De/En/It)
www.ImmoScout24.ch (Fr/De/En/It)
www.immostreet.ch (Fr/De/En/It)

Some others

www.immoclick.ch (De/Fr)
http://www.romand-immobilier.ch (Fr/En)

Tips:
- Most of the appartments are unfurnsihed, but include usually a cellar and an access to a washing machine, the kitchen is normally fully equipped.
- You'll need to pay 2 to 3 months in advance, this money can be blocked at your bank on a special bank account with 2 signatures (owner and lender), you can also choose a caution company (like swisscaution).
- Contract is usually for 1 year minimum, and term can only be at a specific period (every 3 or 6 months), but if you can find someone to take other that will be no problem.
- prices follow the interest rate published every 3 months (http://www.bwo.admin.ch/themen/mietrech … ml?lang=fr)
- subletting is allowed if the owner is informed and a contract is established, price must be reasonnable compared to the normal price.

Ihave an offer ofCHF 150,000 per annum and I'm wondering if this will suffice for a family of three in Geneva. What would be the appropriate budget for a 2 bedroom apartment without being overly ostentatious? Thanks
