Career
Conrad Rudat obtained his Matura, the university entrance qualification, in 2017 at the Salzmannschule Schnepfenthal in Thuringia, a state specialist grammar school for languages. There he learned English and Spanish, Spanish as a Matura subject, as well as Latin up to the Latinum.
He then studied business administration at the University of Greifswald and graduated in 2023 with a Bachelor of Science. He wrote his bachelor’s thesis on applications of Ethereum in the financial sector at the Chair of Finance and Business Valuation; it received the top grade, equivalent to 6.0 in the Swiss grading system (1.0, “sehr gut”, in Germany). While still studying he gained practical experience in auditing at BDO, in financial advice at Swiss Life Select and in recruitment at Hays in Zurich.
He has worked in Baar since 2023: first as a property consultant, then at Partners Group in Client Solutions Switzerland. In November 2024 he set up on his own as an estate agent. Today he runs Rudat AG as its founder and owner. The company, with its registered office at Neuhofstrasse 5A in Baar, grew out of his former sole proprietorship. He advises clients in German, English and Spanish.
Specialism: valuation and media-led marketing
Media-led marketing is, in his own words, his speciality. Every property receives professional photographs and, depending on the property, drone footage, a video or a 360° tour, plus its own sales documentation. Before marketing comes the valuation: he values flats and single-family houses hedonically, and apartment buildings, commercial property and hotels by their income capitalisation value.
Valued with IAZI/CIFI
For valuations Conrad Rudat uses the models of IAZI/CIFI in Zurich, which Swiss banks, insurers and pension funds also work with. They are based on prices actually paid, not on asking prices on the internet. This means every asking price can be justified with figures, towards the owner as well as towards the buyer’s bank.
Working method, in his own words
“My aim is to offer properties in a serious, credible way and at a price in line with the market.”
“For me it goes without saying in our collaboration that my fee is only earned once I have successfully found a suitable buyer.”
He works on a few mandates at a time, conducts the viewings himself and negotiates in person. Anyone who sells with Rudat AG has the same person on the phone from the first conversation to the handover.
