The story of Carlton International begins in London, goes through a crisis that could have brought everything to an end, and finds its conclusion on the French Riviera \u2014 where, for more than thirty years, the agency has established itself as one of the leading names in luxury real estate on the French Riviera.<\/p>\n<p>For Forbes\u2019 \u201cSuccessful Companies\u201d program, Philip Weiser, founder and CEO of Carlton International Group, spoke with journalist Jessie Claire in an exclusive interview filmed at the Peninsula Paris. A rare conversation combining the company\u2019s founding story, a vision of luxury, and the deep conviction that excellence is a daily discipline.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what this conversation reveals about one of the French Riviera\u2019s most discreet and admired real estate agencies.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Interview exclusive avec Forbes et Carlton International \u00e0 Paris (version fran\u00e7aise)\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TelzWSbUL3c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"143\">Philip Weiser, founder and CEO of Carlton International, interviewed by Forbes for the \u201cSuccessful Companies\u201d program \u2014 at the Peninsula Paris.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1az70lv\" data-start=\"145\" data-end=\"228\">From New Zealand to the French Riviera: The Journey of an Unconventional Founder<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"230\" data-end=\"783\">Philip Weiser does not fit the traditional image of a luxury real estate agency executive. Originally from New Zealand and educated at the \u00c9cole h\u00f4teli\u00e8re de Lausanne \u2014 one of the world\u2019s most renowned institutions for training in service excellence \u2014 he began his career in the international hospitality industry. Appointed Marketing Director of a major London hotel group, he worked alongside some of the world\u2019s finest establishments and developed a conviction that would stay with him throughout his career: true luxury is about service, not status.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"785\" data-end=\"1274\">In London, he founded his first company, specializing in the rental of high-end furnished apartments with hotel-style services \u2014 a premium alternative to traditional hospitality that was ahead of its time. The business enjoyed considerable success. Drawing on this experience, Philip Weiser chose to settle in the south of France and entered the luxury real estate sector on the French Riviera, initially joining a property development and real estate transactions company as an executive.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1276\" data-end=\"1802\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">But success can be fragile. In the early 1990s, the Gulf War triggered a severe economic crisis that brought his thriving real estate company to its knees. After several years of living very modestly \u2014 an experience he discusses with remarkable candor in the Forbes interview \u2014 he managed to rebuild a business from the ashes. In 1995, Carlton International was born. Not as a simple restart, but as a foundation \u2014 stronger, more conscious, and driven by a more mature vision of what luxury real estate should truly represent.<\/p>\n<h2>1995: The Birth of a Vision, \u201cFidus et Audax\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Carlton International was founded in 1995 with a clear ambition: to transform the traditional vision of luxury real estate on the French Riviera. Where other agencies sell properties, Carlton International is committed to building relationships \u2014 long-lasting, discreet, and founded on trust. The motto chosen by Philip Weiser to embody this philosophy is in Latin: \u201cFidus et Audax,\u201d meaning \u201cFaithful and Bold.\u201d Two words that sum up thirty years of a company whose reputation has been built as much on discretion as on ambition.<\/p>\n<p>Faithful, because every client is treated as a valued guest, with the same level of attention and consideration, whether they are looking for a \u20ac2 million apartment or a \u20ac20 million estate. Bold, because Carlton International has never been afraid to open new offices, explore new markets, or introduce new services before they became established within the industry. This duality \u2014 the strength of a solid foundation combined with the freedom to innovate \u2014 is the driving force behind the group\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>From its earliest years, the agency distinguished itself through its international positioning. While local agencies initially focused primarily on French clients, Carlton International viewed its clientele as global by nature: British, American, Scandinavian, Middle Eastern, and Asian clients \u2014 all these profiles were part of Philip Weiser\u2019s commercial vision from the very beginning. This anticipation of the globalization of the luxury market largely explains the agency\u2019s long-term success.<\/p>\n<h2>Forbes at the Peninsula: When an Interview Reveals a Philosophy<\/h2>\n<p>The choice of the Peninsula Paris as the setting for the Forbes interview is no coincidence. One of the capital\u2019s most discreet luxury hotels, located on Rue Kl\u00e9ber, embodies exactly the values Philip Weiser has sought to instill in Carlton International since its beginnings: excellence in service, absolute discretion, and attention to the smallest detail. Speaking with journalist Jessie Claire for the \u201cSuccessful Companies\u201d program, he talks about his group with the candor and passion of someone who has built everything with his own hands.<\/p>\n<p>In this interview \u2014 which we invite you to watch in full above \u2014 Philip Weiser addresses the questions at the heart of his identity as an entrepreneur: How do you bounce back from failure? What distinguishes a good real estate agency from a truly great company? How do you maintain a culture of excellence within a growing organization? His answers reveal a leader grounded in reality, who neither idealizes his journey nor shies away from it, but instead draws clear and valuable lessons from his experiences.<\/p>\n<p>The Forbes interview also offers an insight into what drives the Carlton International teams every day: integrity, excellence, and perseverance are the three values he identifies, in that order. Not as a communications slogan, but as operational principles that guide every decision, every recruitment, and every choice of property to include in the portfolio. \u201cIn any business, great success can sometimes be followed by a massive loss. What matters is what you do next,\u201d he shares.<\/p>\n<h2>The Carlton Group Today: An Ecosystem of Excellence<\/h2>\n<p>Over thirty years, what Philip Weiser founded has grown into much more than a real estate agency. Today, the Carlton Group brings together several complementary entities, each addressing a specific aspect of the high-end real estate experience. Carlton International forms the historic core of the group, specializing in the sale and acquisition of prestigious properties on the French Riviera and internationally. Carlton International\u2019s rental division \u2014 headed by Alexandra Venard \u2014 manages both seasonal and long-term rentals, offering a selection of villas, apartments, and chalets spanning the Riviera and the Alps, as well as carefully selected international destinations.<\/p>\n<p>Carlton Signature takes the level of service even further, offering an ultra-personalized experience for the most discerning clients. Riviera Lifestyle completes the ecosystem with a magazine and editorial platform dedicated to the art of living on the French Riviera. Finally, Carlton HotelBrokers extends the group\u2019s expertise to hotel transactions \u2014 a market segment where Carlton holds a unique position at the intersection of luxury real estate and high-end hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>Today, this multi-entity group covers the entire French Riviera \u2014 from Saint-Tropez to Monaco \u2014 with offices in Cannes, Antibes, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, Valbonne, Nice, and Monaco. Beyond France, Carlton International has a presence in Alsace, Germany, Portugal \u2014 with an office in Cascais \u2014 and Spain through the Costa del Sol. The group is a member of Who\u2019s Who in Luxury Real Estate and a founding member of the International Association of Luxury Real Estate Agents.<\/p>\n<h3>The Numbers Behind the Success<\/h3>\n<p>More than 30 years in business, over 25 real estate experts across more than ten offices, thousands of clients assisted since its foundation \u2014 including investors, families, celebrities, and entrepreneurs \u2014 transactions completed in more than 70 countries, and a presence in global luxury real estate rankings. Carlton International is not simply an agency that has stood the test of time: it is a company that has grown while remaining true to its identity \u2014 perhaps the rarest form of success in such a competitive industry.<\/p>\n<h2>The Carlton DNA: What Turns a Transaction into a Relationship<\/h2>\n<p>What sets Carlton International apart from its competitors cannot be reduced to the quality of its portfolio or the reach of its network. It is a culture \u2014 passed down by Philip Weiser since the group\u2019s beginnings and embodied every day by each member of the team. A culture founded on the belief that luxury real estate is not a product industry, but a relationship industry: you are not simply selling a villa; you are accompanying a family through one of the most important decisions of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>This philosophy is reflected in the way Carlton International approaches every property mandate. Each property is selected according to strict criteria: architectural quality, location, investment potential, and alignment with the expectations of a highly discerning international clientele. Mediocre properties are never listed, regardless of commercial pressure. This selectivity protects the agency\u2019s reputation and ensures that every tenant or buyer receives an experience that lives up to their expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Discretion is another fundamental pillar. On the French Riviera, a significant proportion of the most important transactions take place off-market \u2014 never publicly advertised, but presented directly by Carlton International to qualified clients within its network. The ability to operate with complete confidentiality is a mark of trust that the most discerning clients \u2014 often public figures or families seeking to protect their privacy \u2014 place in the agency after years of relationship-building.<\/p>\n<div class=\"qMYqUG_convSearchResultHighlightRoot\">\n<div class=\"\" data-turn-id-container=\"request-WEB:2c806d15-f9b9-4fe7-92c7-8b5d8e2faab9-15\" data-is-intersecting=\"true\">\n<section class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none [&amp;:has([data-writing-block])&gt;*]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\" data-turn-id=\"request-WEB:2c806d15-f9b9-4fe7-92c7-8b5d8e2faab9-15\" data-turn-id-container=\"request-WEB:2c806d15-f9b9-4fe7-92c7-8b5d8e2faab9-15\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-32\" data-turn=\"assistant\">\n<div class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-8 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-sm,calc(var(--spacing)*6))] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-lg,calc(var(--spacing)*16))] px-(--thread-content-margin)\">\n<div class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\" data-conversation-screenshot-content=\"\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-1\" dir=\"auto\" tabindex=\"0\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"cad3969e-41e1-4938-8224-f0c92427df33\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-5-6-mini\" data-turn-start-message=\"true\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full dark markdown-new-styling\">\n<h2 class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" data-section-id=\"b1s9io\" data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"49\">The Women and Men Behind Carlton International<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"51\" data-end=\"553\">In the Forbes interview, Philip Weiser emphasizes one key point: Carlton International is, above all, about people. The group\u2019s employees \u2014 real estate agents, agency directors, marketing teams, and rental managers \u2014 are the company\u2019s greatest asset. Their training, commitment, and dedication to the group\u2019s values directly determine the quality of service experienced by clients, who are often discerning and experienced enough to compare Carlton with what the world\u2019s leading agencies have to offer.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"555\" data-end=\"1008\">This combination of professionals with highly diverse skill sets \u2014 local expertise, international vision, service excellence, and creative sensitivity \u2014 enables Carlton International to deliver the same high level of service to an American buyer looking for a villa in Mougins as to a European family wishing to rent an apartment on the Croisette during the Cannes Film Festival. This diversity of talent is what ensures the universality of the service.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1kyssc2\" data-start=\"1010\" data-end=\"1079\">Carlton International and the Future: Innovation Serving Tradition<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1081\" data-end=\"1510\">Philip Weiser is not someone who views the future with apprehension. At the Luxury Real Estate conference he hosted in January 2025, he explored the integration of artificial intelligence into luxury real estate \u2014 a topic that may seem paradoxical in an industry built on human relationships, but one that Carlton International approaches with the same bold curiosity that has characterized its founder for the past thirty years.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1512\" data-end=\"1937\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">At Carlton International, AI is not viewed as a substitute for human expertise, but as a way to amplify its capabilities: real-time analysis of market data, personalized property presentations tailored to each buyer profile, and optimization of pricing strategies for seasonal rentals. These tools, mastered by experienced teams, enable Carlton International to maintain a decisive edge in an increasingly competitive market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"z-0 flex min-h-[46px] justify-start\">\n<p>The brand licensing strategy \u2014 which allows partner agencies to join the Carlton International network by sharing its values, tools, and reputation \u2014 represents another key growth driver for the group in the years ahead. By integrating carefully selected licensees into its ecosystem, Carlton International is expanding its geographical reach without ever compromising the quality that has been the hallmark of the company since 1995.<\/p>\n<p>The story of Carlton International is the story of a man who transformed a dream, rebuilt from the ashes of an initial failure, into one of the most respected names in luxury real estate on the French Riviera. Thirty years after its founding, the motto \u201cFidus et Audax\u201d still resonates with the same strength: faithful to the values that built everything, and bold in the way they are brought to life in a constantly evolving world.
