Frequently asked questions: renting a room in Wil

Is this a room in a shared flat?

Yes. If you are looking to rent a room in a shared flat in Wil, you are in the right place: you rent your own lockable single room and share the kitchen, bathroom and laundry room with the other tenants. The difference to a classic flatshare: there is no casting and no application to your future flatmates. You pick a room, come to a viewing, sign the contract and move in. Every tenant has a separate rental contract with us, so you are not liable for the rent of anyone else. This form of housing works particularly well for commuters, weekly residents, working professionals, students and anyone who wants to rent flexibly.

Can I rent a room in Wil without an extract from the debt collection register?

Yes. We do not ask for an extract from the debt collection register. You can send us a rental enquiry even if you have entries. You need neither a salary statement nor a confirmation from your employer – a valid ID is enough. That sets us apart from the large real estate portals, where a clean register extract is usually a requirement.

I am a foreign national – what do I need to rent a room in Wil?

All you need is a valid ID. You can choose between a viewing on site or a video viewing. No further documents are required to rent from us.

Can I view the room first?

Yes, a personal viewing on site is mandatory, unless you are coming from abroad. If you cannot be here in person, please get in touch with us. We also offer video viewings.

Can I rent a room in Wil today?

Yes, you can move in as soon as the rental contract is signed and the rent and the deposit are paid, provided the room is available. A fast and uncomplicated move-in matters a lot to us. If you wish, you can move in immediately, usually within one to two hours. Available rooms in Wil are often taken quickly.

How much does a room in Wil cost?

Prices for rooms in Wil vary depending on location, furnishing and size. With us, furnished rooms start at around CHF 750 per month. A modern furnished room costs about CHF 760 on average, and in central locations prices are around CHF 760. Most furnished rooms in Wil therefore range between CHF 750 and CHF 790 per month. Compared with Winterthur or Zurich, you pay around CHF 220 less per month in Wil. Our listings show transparently which rent applies to each room.

Is Wil worthwhile if I work in Winterthur, Zurich or St. Gallen?

Yes. If you work in Winterthur, Zurich or St. Gallen, you pay considerably less rent in Wil and still stay within commuting distance: trains run every half hour, St. Gallen and Winterthur are around 30 to 45 minutes away and Zurich around 55 minutes. You don't need a car of your own for this. Wil station is right in the town centre. If you work in Frauenfeld, you can use the Frauenfeld–Wil railway (S15). On top of that, the WILWEST development area is creating new jobs in industry, trade, logistics and services in Wil itself. Then commuting costs disappear completely.

How high is the deposit for a room in Wil?

In Switzerland the rental deposit is usually up to three monthly rents. At Apartment24 the deposit is only one monthly rent, and paying in cash is possible. That keeps your budget intact when you move in and makes the start in Wil as simple as possible.

What is included in the rent of a furnished single room?

Our furnished single rooms start at 10 m² and are fully equipped. Included are:

  • Service charges and heating
  • Electricity and water
  • Table and chair
  • Wardrobe and bedside table
  • Shelf with storage space and storage boxes
  • Bed and mattress from a Swiss brand manufacturer

Crockery and kitchen utensils are not included. However, the utensils of your flatmates are often available and may be used after asking them.

Are the radio and TV fees included in the rent?

The Serafe fee is not included in the rent: in Switzerland every household pays a levy for radio and TV. It is charged on top of the rent and stays the same whether you live alone or with others. You can find more information on the Serafe website.

How long can I rent a room in Wil?

The minimum rental period is one month. This makes our rooms suitable as monthly rooms or as interim accommodation, for example during a fixed-term assignment, an internship or while you look for a long-term flat. After that you can give notice with a period of 14 or 30 days, so you stay flexible if your situation changes.

What is the notice period?

You can choose between a notice period of 14 or 30 days – please let us know your preference before the contract is concluded. Notice is given to the middle or the end of a month. The tenancy cannot end between 1 December and 15 January. If your date falls within this period, the tenancy automatically ends on 15 January. You can send the notice through the Apartment24 app or by registered post.

What house rules apply to pets, smoking and parking?

Smoking, animals and drugs are not permitted in our properties. These rules apply to all tenants and keep living together in the flat pleasant for everyone. Some properties also have outdoor parking spaces or spaces in an underground garage. These are usually not included in the monthly rent and can be rented separately, subject to availability.

Can I register the address as my official residence?

Yes, at almost all of our properties registering the address as your official residence is straightforward. You can use the rental contract you receive from us directly for registering with the residents' office of the town of Wil. In the few exceptions we tell you transparently in the listing and before the contract is signed.

Can I register as a weekly resident?

At many of our rooms you can register as a weekly resident. This is particularly relevant for people who work in Wil or Eastern Switzerland during the week but keep their main residence in another municipality. Whether this is possible at a specific property is stated in the listing, or you can ask us directly with your enquiry. Please also clarify the required documents and conditions with the municipality in charge.

What should I keep in mind with a sublet?

With a sublet there should always be a written contract. It is also important that the main tenant has the consent of the property management or the landlord. The deposit should be handled correctly as well. In Switzerland a rental deposit is normally not paid into a private account but into a blocked rental deposit account at a Swiss bank. The usual amount is up to three monthly rents – at Apartment24 only one monthly rent is due.

Is a room in Wil suitable for students?

Yes. For students at the University of St. Gallen (HSG) or ZHAW Winterthur, Wil is a more affordable place to live. From Wil station you reach the University of St. Gallen (HSG), the OST – Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences at its St. Gallen campus or ZHAW in Winterthur in 30 to 45 minutes.
