Bio
As Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Philip Pilevsky utilizes his three decades of experience in real estate to provide leadership and strategic business insight to Philips International Holding Corporation.
A graduate of Columbia University, Philip Pilevsky started out buying and quickly reselling property with less stringent zoning requirements from criteria established in the 1920s. He then began a number of real estate projects, namely buying properties, arranging financing, and procuring tenants. Early in his ventures, Philip Pilevsky obtained capital from acquaintances, investing the funds successfully into numerous properties.
Avoiding the pyramid tactic of borrowing money to secure one project in order to finance another, Philip Pilevsky treated each project as independent from another. Although focusing on retail locations, Philip Pilevsky has found great success in many other types of commercial and residential investments as well.
Currently, Philip Pilevsky, together with his sons, Seth Pilevsky and Michael Pilevsky, continues to manage the firm and its substantial holdings. Philip Pilevsky periodically offers commentary to news organizations such as CNN and National Public Radio.
