Four experts, one vision: Reinventing luxury real estate

Since its creation, Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty has established itself as a key player in luxury real estate in Île-de-France. Driven by the expertise of Frank Sylvaire and Paulo Fernandes, this network has grown over the years to offer high-end services to a discerning international clientele. Located in the most prestigious districts of the capital, such as Victor Hugo, Passy, Trocadéro, Neuilly-sur-Seine, Muette, Champs-Élysées, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Marais, and Montmartre, Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty offers an exclusive selection of exceptional properties.

With the support of Sotheby’s International Realty, the world’s leading luxury real estate network, Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty has distinguished itself through a personalized approach and unique expertise.

Over the past 15 years, six agencies have been established in Paris and Île-de-France, enabling the brand to thrive in the market for luxury apartments, prestigious villas, private mansions, castles for sale, manor houses, and historic properties. The properties offered by Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty stand out for their exceptional features, including panoramic views of the Seine, private gardens, indoor and outdoor pools, terraces with views of the Eiffel Tower, private elevators, private gyms, renovations by renowned architects, high-end kitchens, and the latest smart home technologies.

Among the exceptional properties listed by Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty, a prestigious 1,000 m² mansion located on the largest plot in Villa Montmorency embodies absolute luxury. Spanning four levels connected by an elevator, it offers an exceptional living environment with numerous balconies and terraces, a landscaped garden of 1,700 m², and outstanding wellness amenities. The residence features five luxurious suites, an indoor pool, a sauna, and a hammam. A 120 m² annex and an independent 63 m² apartment complement this unique property, along with four private garages. This rare gem is listed at €39,600,000.

The luxury real estate market in Paris has experienced significant fluctuations in recent years. As Frank Sylvaire points out, the 2009 crisis was a major turning point, but Sotheby’s International Realty’s high-end positioning allowed it to maintain steady activity.

In 2021 and 2022, the market surged with 1,250,000 transactions in France, a historic record. However, rising interest rates in 2023 led to a 30% drop in annual transactions. Today, the trend is reversing. In 2024, demand for luxury real estate is rebounding, driven by several factors, including increased interest from foreign investors, particularly Americans, due to the strong dollar, the momentum of the 2024 Paris Olympics, which has restored confidence among international buyers, and the shift of savings towards real estate, as investors seek to secure their wealth in tangible assets.

Beyond transactions, Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty offers a comprehensive range of high-end real estate services. Premium property management ensures complete peace of mind. Luxury real estate valuation provides precise and tailored property assessments. Private concierge services offer personalized assistance and exclusive amenities for homeowners. Prestige real estate investment includes strategic advice to optimize asset portfolios. Post-sale services guarantee continuous support after transactions. Non-occupant homeowner insurance ensures optimal property protection.

With a clientele composed of top investors, entrepreneurs, celebrities, and affluent families, Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty is committed to offering exclusive guidance. The firm provides insightful articles on luxury real estate market trends, detailed guides on prestigious Parisian districts, and virtual tours of exceptional properties to help buyers with their investment decisions. Additionally, the agency actively participates in high-end real estate events, strengthening its network and expertise.

Looking ahead to 2025, the outlook remains promising. The evolution of the luxury real estate market, supported by favorable economic conditions, presents new investment opportunities. The most sought-after districts in Paris and Île-de-France will continue to attract an international clientele seeking excellence. Paris Ouest Sotheby’s International Realty remains a benchmark in the industry, combining prestige, expertise, and a passion for exceptional real estate. With a team of specialists, a global network, and a bespoke approach, the firm continues to shape the future of luxury real estate in Paris.
