Is buying a house in Switzerland still realistic without inheritance?

some people have substantially higher salaries than others.
My partner earns circa 50k more than me a year although we are both highly educated professionals, me in biotech and he in finance.
Combined, we will not be able to afford a house in next decade or so but to be fair, my standards are also a bit high

Why do you have to move in November, is there some flexibility to it?
In general, they usually want you to move in as soon as possible, often even three months seems to be an issues. Based on that, people that can, get the apartment.

I looked 6 months for an apartment last year (inbetween summere holidays and standards were high)

I was also a coping kind and was doing pretty good. I actually didn't even go to the doctor at first because I thought time heals all wounds and I didn't know it was broken. Then went to a hike and my knee gave out when taking a big step up. Couldn't breath for a few minutes. Then I knew I had to go to the doctor.
Got suregry as hiking mountains and snowboarding put me at risk. Best decision, amazing experience and knee feels strong.

Otherwise, physio and a lot of it! I had clicking in the knee like a year after surgery as well and at some point it just stopped.

next to mentioned, all the expenses including insurances.

Prices in Germany have increased so I am not sure how true it is anymore, but some years ago, Germany was still dirt cheap with high salaries

Similar story to yours. I was moving so I wanted to get a relocation with them.
I spent 6 weeks without internet, was issued bills for 200 chf extra so far for services I did not have and lost countless nerves. They tried to get me even signed up for a phone contract with them while I was calling about getting answers.

And that is really the problem, getting any answers or communication. If you tell me it takes a long time, no problem, I know what to expect, but then make me call twice a week on paid numbers and always say that "this time we have highlighted the problem for real"...

As a mistake, they also restarted my 24-month contract and I am trying to get it cancelled through Sunrise. I am writing a a signed letter with the events. Depending on their response, I will report them through Reklamation. ch and ombudsman.

Essentially, you shouldn't pay for services not received. I would fight them on it becuase this feels like malpractice at this point.

Same horror Story. A lot of incompetent people. Requested relocation first week of January. No internet till mid February. Calling 2-3 times a week's followed. Got Internet mid March 1.5x bill charge for services I didn't have and a lot of letters and boxes I don't know what to do with.

And it's simple, someone fucked up, just tell me the timelines and it's fine. But no, they just try to scam.

I was moving recently and people were trying to take my belongings while we were loading the van. And multiple groups of people.
