Christian Buffa, a 30-year-old native of Rho, has always had a strong connection to Milan, frequently visiting and embracing the vibrant culture of the Lombard capital. After completing his studies in accounting in 2012, he stepped into the professional world as a sales agent for a prominent Italian office supply company. In this role, he managed a diverse portfolio of clients, focusing on the central areas of Milan and honing his skills in customer relations and sales strategy.
In 2017, seizing an exciting opportunity, Christian decided to embark on an entrepreneurial journey by opening his own mobile phone store in the suburbs. This venture not only allowed him to showcase his business acumen but also introduced him to the real estate sector, a field that piqued his interest. He began networking with various real estate agents, learning about the market dynamics and exploring potential collaborations.
Despite the success he enjoyed with his store, Christian felt a growing desire to expand his horizons beyond the suburban landscape. This prompted him to fully commit to a career in real estate. He enrolled in a mediation course, immersing himself in the intricacies of the industry. His hard work paid off when he successfully passed the licensing exam in the summer of 2024. Shortly after, he applied to Engel & Völkers Milan, drawn by the company’s stellar reputation and commitment to excellence. Today, he proudly serves as a member of the E&V team on Corso Sempione.
Beyond his professional endeavors, Christian is a passionate music lover, with a particular pride in his personal collection of vinyl records by the legendary Fabrizio De André. His interests extend to cinema and sports. In his leisure time, he balances his passion for sports with activities like tennis, padel, soccer, and fitness, ensuring a well-rounded lifestyle. Additionally, he cherishes the opportunity to travel and indulge in fine dining experiences, appreciating the richness of different cultures.
