1. Capital
We source opportunities, mostly off-market, and raise the equity and debt to acquire them. Each property is held in its own special purpose vehicle (SPV), owned by a single investor or a small group.
Unlocking Hidden Value
Repositioning property for stronger returns, with direct ownership for our investors.
Unlocking
Hidden Value
We begin with changing markets, not buildings.
Occupier needs shift, areas change, and many buildings fail to keep pace. The gap between what a property is and what it could be is where we work. We find these assets, bring together a small group of investors to acquire each one, and invest alongside them. We then reposition the property through new leases, stronger tenants or a change of use, growing both its income and its capital value.
What We Do
2. Invest
Lumina co-invests in the deals it leads, aligning our interests with those of our partners. Some deals are designed to improve and sell within a few years; others are held for long-term income.
3. Serve
We act as asset manager for every property we acquire, from purchase to exit: negotiating leases, coordinating development or rezoning, overseeing management and investor reporting, and refinancing or restructuring as the plan requires.
Our Purpose
We create institutional-quality outcomes.
We identify opportunity others overlook.
We test every number independently and reposition with discipline.
We give private investors direct ownership, managed to an institutional standard.
