Career & Expertise

I studied business administration at the Vienna University of Economics and Business as well as sports science, and then built up more than 30 years of solid experience in the real estate industry.

As a state-certified estate agent, property developer and property manager, I worked mainly in project development and have been self-employed since 2005.

Over the course of my career, I gained extensive expertise in buying and selling property – both through project participations with private foundations and through my own projects.

My geographical focus was primarily on Vienna and the surrounding area, complemented by projects in Salzburg, Linz and Munich.

I have supported numerous property acquisitions and sales processes, from site selection through project development to the sale – from residential projects in new and old buildings (especially apartment buildings) to office and commercial properties.

A key part of my work was handling property development projects and forward-purchase transactions with institutional investors, for which I bore overall financial and organisational responsibility.

Most recently, I also worked for several years as an owner’s representative and successfully supported the rezoning and development of a property in Upper Austria for a large-scale residential project.

Since 2024, I have been supporting private individuals and investors as an independent real estate consultant when buying and selling apartments, terraced houses, detached houses, building plots, apartment buildings and subsidised or non-profit housing.

My aim is not to look at properties in isolation from a single professional perspective, but to analyse legal, financial and structural aspects as a whole, identify risks at an early stage and, where necessary, recommend involving suitable tradespeople or specialist consultants.

Through ongoing training and practical work on my client cases, I keep my expertise in building law, construction practice and property valuation up to date.

Personal

I live with my family in Perchtoldsdorf near Vienna, am married and have three children.

In my free time, I find balance in sport: in summer I love sailing, and in winter I head for the mountains.
