The majority of participants receive a salary increase of up to 20% after completing the "Real Estate Manager (BP)" course. This success should not be underestimated when you consider that many of those who complete this course are already in their current job before or during the course and therefore cannot expect another major pay rise afterwards. In specific individual cases, the salary also depends on other factors.

23-year-old Chantal works for a renowned real estate company in Lucerne. She enjoys working in the real estate sector and the independent way of working. Her good interpersonal skills, high level of social competence and great flexibility enable her to contribute well to her daily work. Chantal's assertive personality, organizational skills and conscientiousness are greatly appreciated by her colleagues and superiors. When looking after condominium owners, she has a lot of contact with apartment owners and helps with renovations, billing and handling insurance claims. Chantal would like to complete further training as a real estate manager in order to be able to manage real estate properties professionally in technical and commercial terms. This will enable her to draw up maintenance strategies, condition analyses, marketing concepts and property accounting in the future. She is looking forward to being the point of contact for tradespeople and tenants, as well as handling extensions and conversions, insurance claims and lettings independently. After completing her federal certificate in real estate management, Chantal is looking forward to a responsible position in real estate management and thus good long-term earning potential as well as promising opportunities for further development, for example as a team leader.
Financial benefits of further training as a real estate manager
As a real estate manager, Chantal will receive CHF 1,067 more per month than before and will therefore have at least CHF 505,000 more at her disposal by the time she retires than if she had not done any further training.
If she is also given the opportunity to take on her first management role as a team leader from the age of 28, a further CHF 943,488 will be added by the time she retires (CHF 7,506 - CHF 5,602 = CHF 1,904 per month / per year 12 x CHF 1,904 = CHF 22,848 / 65 - 28 = 37 years until retirement / 37 x CHF 22,848 = CHF 845,376).
As this theoretical calculation for "Real Estate Manager" does not take into account any further salary increases, promotions or interest on savings, the salary can still increase significantly.
