    April 1, 2025  |  Article Hits:2
    With the incorporation of Tschiertschen-Praden into the city of Chur, the proportion of two-apartment buildings has fallen below 20 percent, meaning that new second homes can once again be built. Three other municipalities are no longer subject to the Second Homes Act (ZWG):
    - Monteceneri (TI)
    - Göschenen (UR)
    - Seehof (BE)
    - Tschiertschen-Praden (GR)
     
    In total, no new second homes may be built in 337 municipalities, meaning that the number of municipalities with a proportion of second homes of over 20 percent has risen slightly. The following municipalities are new additions:
    - Reichenbach im Kandertal (BE)
    - Basse-Allaine (JU)
    - Heiligenschwendi (BE)
    - Langenbruck (BL)
    - Mauraz (VD)
    - Rebévelier (BE)
    - Scharans (GR)
    These municipalities are now subject to the Second Homes Act (ZWG); new second homes may only be built in exceptional cases, for example if they are managed.
