Listings are often only online briefly – a search alert tells you about new ones.

How do I get on a cooperative's waiting list?

Whether a provider keeps a waiting list, and for whom, is stated on its own website – some lists are only open to existing tenants or members, others are closed, and many providers let apartments only through listings. For 9 of the 23 providers in the canton of Genf, our directory notes a waiting list, for 7 of them with a sign-up link (not checked individually).

What is the difference between a building cooperative and a housing cooperative?
