Trouble finding Nachmieter/successor tenant for apartment in Oerlikon. What am I missing?
We’re looking for a successor tenant (Nachmieter) for our apartment in Zürich Oerlikon, needed by 17 August. It’s been posted for over a week on Flatfox and Homegate and we’ve had basically no interest. I’ve posted on Facebook housing groups, 5 people sent me requests to view but ALL of them cancelled/no-show, the listing on Flatfox/Homegate has zero requests coming in at all right now.
A few details
105m² loft-style penthouse, top floors (6th), with a 23.5m² private rooftop terrace
Right by Bahnhof Oerlikon
Net rent CHF 3,360 + CHF 210 utilities
I’m trying to figure out whether it’s the listing, the price, the timing, or the platforms. For anyone who’s found a Nachmieter in Zürich recently:
Is a week of silence normal in this market right now, or does it signal something’s off?
Anything about the listing itself — photos, wording, timing — that commonly kills interest?
Grateful for any honest feedback, even blunt. Link in comment section.
