Carlton Group
Carlton Group is an international real estate investment bank. Founded in 1991 by Howard Lee Michaels, Carlton has closed more than $125 billion in commercial and residential real estate transactions, primarily high-leverage. The funds raised by Carlton come primarily from high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors, with the goal of fully funding (or nearly so) real estate projects. Among the projects Carlton has financed are 432 Park Avenue and 125 Greenwich Street, the latter of which was developed by Michael Shvo. In 2014 the firm began to use crowdfunding for its individual investors worldwide, with opportunities to invest in high-yield commercial properties for the minimum price tag of $1 million. Carlton also owns and manages more than 3 million square feet of commercial, residential and retail space through its merchant banking division. In addition, it has been active abroad, adding the former Metropolitan Palace Hotel, now called the Carlton Palace, in the United Arab Emirates.
