Firstcaution is a FINMA-approved insurance company, specialising in rental guarantees. We assist tenants by issuing rental guarantee for both commercial and residential lease agreements. Our team of 45 staff is spread across our offices in Nyon, Zurich, and Bellinzona.
We treat every individual and every request with respect. If necessary, we will draw up a personalised solution for your rental guarantee.

At Firstcaution, we all share a desire to find quick and easy solutions to support you in major life steps. We provide information on all aspects of renting and access to accommodation. We have been issuing rental guarantees for twelve years and act as a bridge between tenants and property management companies or landlords.
We want to facilitate access to accommodation and support business growth. We are convinced that access to accommodation should not depend on tenants being able to block three months' rental guarantee in a bank account.
We offer simple and innovative solutions that meet the needs of tenants, property management companies, and landlords.
At Firstcaution, our work is split across the various teams, e.g. private clients, commercial clients, and claims. Our team is highly specialised and offers an efficient, high-quality service.
We are committed to working efficiently to provide rental guarantees within a maximum of one working day and to answer questions as quickly as possible.
We want our customers to place their trust in us. Therefore, we are well-versed in the details of rental guarantees, but also with associated areas such as lease agreements and tenancy law. At Firstcaution, our team speaks a range of different languages to make answering your questions easier.

Our team of specialists also share their knowledge on our blog. Here you will find reliable and straightforward advice.
