Erik Zwart, the company's founder, has always had a love for real estate and a desire to live in the mountains. Erik, who relocated to Austria in 2020 and lived out his lifetime goal of moving to the stunning mountain nation, was born in the Netherlands in 1997.

Erik met numerous ex-pats in Austria who discussed their experiences with foreigners renting or purchasing real estate there. After hearing tales of their struggles and obstacles, he realized he could be of assistance. As a result, Erik began the procedure to become an officially authorized real estate agent in Austria in the summer of 2022. After completing the required coursework and training, he became one of the few multilingual real estate agents in the area.

Erik was motivated to launch Estate Agent Austria in the fall of 2022 by his personal ex-pat experience and the tales he heard from his friends. He intended to establish a business to help foreigners successfully negotiate the challenging process of purchasing or renting a house in Austria.

To give his customers access to both the international and domestic real estate markets, Erik at Estate Agent Austria collaborates closely with the local realtor IMMO-Real-Kaernten. Compared to other estate agencies, this enables our sellers to reach a wider audience, improving the likelihood of a successful sale. In addition, Erik and his colleagues provide various services for foreigners and assist them in buying and selling houses.
