Typical Mandate
The firm is engaged by international buyers and sellers of the Riviera's most expensive residential property: sea-front villas on the capes, hillside estates above Cannes and Saint-Tropez, and working vineyards and bastides in Provence. Typical mandates run from EUR 5 million to well above EUR 50 million, with the very largest transactions handled privately. Sellers use the Christie's affiliation to reach North American, Middle Eastern and Northern European buyers; buyers rely on the firm's access to properties not advertised.
How to Engage
Buyers usually make contact through the office nearest their target area, listed on the firm's website, or through an introduction from a notary, lawyer or wealth manager. Serious inquiries for properties above EUR 10 million are typically asked to confirm financial capacity before viewings. Sellers sign a French mandate, exclusive or not, that sets the asking price and the marketing approach, including whether the property is shown off-market only.
