Eichelmann Real Estate Gmbh

What Eichelmann Real Estate Gmbh does

Eichelmann Real Estate GmbH is a privately held Swiss commercial real estate services firm founded in 2019 and headquartered in Cham, Canton of Zug. The company advises and brokers the rental of commercial, industrial, logistics, office and retail space, and provides supporting analyses including vacancy and market studies, conversion feasibility assessments, and subdivision/renovation cost reviews for property owners. It operates through a regional office and franchise partner model covering four Swiss economic regions: Zug (headquarters, Thomas Eichelmann), Zürich (franchise partner Diana Susac), Bern (franchise partner Michael Weber), and Basel/Pratteln (consultant Jon Istrefi).

The underlying service stack is human-driven consulting rather than a software platform; no proprietary technology, app, API, or AI capability is disclosed. Revenue is generated via professional-services engagements and brokerage commissions on rental transactions, with pricing not publicly disclosed and quote-based per assignment. Distribution combines direct on-site consulting with property owners and a licensed franchise network, supplemented by transaction partnerships with Extra Immobilien GmbH (Basel) and Sena Estate Invest AG (Freienbach).

The company's positioning emphasizes a low-marketing-cost operating model — minimal promotional spend, no on-building signage or banners — with value creation delivered through on-site rental performance and balancing of tenant and owner needs. The customer base comprises commercial property owners (primary) and commercial tenants (secondary) across Switzerland, served exclusively in the domestic market.
