Switzerland voted to abolish a century-old system of taxing property, a move that will see lower dues for homeowners and potentially boost real estate prices.
The proposal was backed by 57.7% of the electorate, according to results published by the government on Sunday. Polls ahead of the plebiscite had suggested a tight outcome.
