The Legal Strategy: Understanding OR Art. 264
Under the Swiss Code of Obligations (Art. 264), a tenant is released from their lease obligations early if they propose one solvent and reasonable replacement tenant who is willing to take over the contract under the same conditions. However, terms like 'Solvent' and 'Reasonable' are subjective. Property managers (*Verwaltungen*) often reject applicants based on rigid income ratios (Rent > 33% of income) or permit status, resetting your liability clock.
The Offlist Advantage:
We do not just find a person; we find a Corporate Candidate. By matching your lease with an incoming executive from a top-tier firm (Google, Roche, UN), we provide a dossier that is statistically harder for landlords to reject. The combination of a high salary and a blue-chip employer creates a 'Gold Standard' application, ensuring your immediate release from liability.
