About us
Mag. Richard Buxbaum

At 55, I feel as driven and ambitious as I did at 22, now empowered by over three decades of experience. In this exciting era of transformation within the real estate sector, I am especially proud to open a new chapter in my career alongside my son, Benedikt.
“DR. ZINSHAUS” & CÄSAR AWARD 2017
From my beginnings in 1990 as a rental agent to playing a key role in one of Austria’s most prestigious residential and investment property brands, my journey has been marked by dedication, innovation and success. My expertise in Vienna’s historic apartment buildings earned me the nickname “Dr. Zinshaus” culminating in the national CÄSAR Award for Best Real Estate Broker in 2017.
INTERNATIONAL REACH & STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS
Since 2010, I have worked closely with Knight Frank Residential, building long-standing international relationships and expanding my global network of real estate professionals. This collaboration has not only produced significant commercial results but also enriched my personal development.
TRUST, MEDIATION & LEADERSHIP
Nearly two decades as authorized signatory and department head have shaped my leadership style: grounded in trust, supported by continuous education, including formal training in mediation and defined by a calm, client-centric approach. I am excited to carry these values into the future of BUXBAUM Immobilien, leveraging my network and insights to the benefit of our clients.
Benedikt Buxbaum, B.A.

Even during my school years, I discovered my enthusiasm for the real estate industry. Two exciting internships at UBM Development and ARE Development offered me early insights into the world of real estate and sparked my determination to pursue this path further.
SOLID FOUNDATION & FIRST CONNECTIONS
Following my graduation and community service, I completed a preparatory course and successfully passed the certification exam for real estate assistant at WIFI Vienna in autumn 2019. This phase laid the groundwork for my future career and introduced me to a valuable professional network.
ACADEMIC EXPERTISE & HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE
In June 2020, I began working as a real estate agent for rental and owner-occupied apartments at OPTIN Immobilien. At the same time, I enrolled in the part-time Bachelor's degree program in Real Estate Management at FHWien der WKW. The synergy of academic study and practical work gave me a strong foundation in economics, law, and real estate technology. I proudly graduated in autumn 2023, building lasting friendships with many of my classmates along the way.
YOUNG NETWORK & FORWARD-LOOKING MINDSET
Recently, I was honoured to be listed among Austria’s “Real 100 Under 40”, a recognition of my dedication to the industry. As an active member of Future of Real Estate (FORE) and the ÖVI Young Professionals, I regularly exchange ideas on emerging topics in real estate and value being part of a vibrant community of young professionals.
My greatest motivation is helping people realise their housing dreams. I am convinced that the current market presents many new opportunities, and I look forward to seizing them together with my father – for the benefit of our clients. Our intergenerational collaboration combines decades of proven expertise with modern, innovative approaches. I’m excited for a future full of promising projects.
