In 2025, Landmark Property Trust (LPT), a major player in the global real estate market, officially launched Aperture Global, its new luxury real estate division. More than just a brand extension, Aperture Global represents a strategic transformation—redefining how LPT engages with ultra-prime property markets, international investors, and high-net-worth clientele worldwide.
A Strategic Expansion into the Ultra-Luxury Segment
Aperture Global is positioned as an exclusive, design-led, high-end real estate arm of LPT, with a global footprint that includes London, Paris, New York, Dubai, Singapore, and Monaco. The division has already announced flagship developments in these cities and assembled an international team of specialists in architecture, development, and property management.
According to Jeremy Cross, CEO of LPT, Aperture Global was created in direct response to the growing demand for top-tier real estate, especially from UHNWIs, digital entrepreneurs, and global nomads seeking not just properties, but elevated lifestyles and investment-grade assets.
“Aperture is more than a name—it’s our lens through which we reinterpret luxury living. It’s about values, not just square meters; about lifestyle, not just location,” said Cross.
Core Strategy and Brand Philosophy
Aperture Global focuses on three pillars:
- Development of luxury residential and mixed-use properties in the world’s most desirable urban centers;
- Investment advisory services for individuals, family offices, and institutions seeking yield and long-term value in elite real estate;
- Full-service asset management, including 24/7 concierge, leasing, maintenance, and digital ownership tools.
Sustainability and aesthetics are at the heart of every project. Each development is LEED, BREEAM, or WELL certified and aligns with ESG principles. Aperture Global partners with renowned architectural firms including Foster + Partners, Herzog & de Meuron, and OMA, ensuring that every project blends global sophistication with local context.
Flagship Projects and Global Rollout
Aperture Global has already unveiled an ambitious pipeline of projects, including:
- One Mayfair Square (London) – A historic conversion offering 18 bespoke residences, priced from €6 million to €25 million for penthouses;
- La Tour Saint-Honoré (Paris) – Contemporary apartments in the 1st arrondissement with private gardens and luxury concierge service;
- Aperture Residences Dubai – A 58-story tower in Business Bay featuring panoramic views, a private marina, spa, and wellness center.
A signature concept called The Aperture Collection will launch in 2026, showcasing culturally inspired residences in different regions, each reflecting local heritage and design language.
Prices for Aperture Global properties start at around €1.8 million and go beyond €50 million for trophy assets in prime locations like Monaco, Manhattan, and Knightsbridge.
Who Are the Clients?
The target audience includes ultra-wealthy individuals, global investors, and family offices from:
- The Gulf region (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia),
- Western Europe (Germany, Switzerland, France),
- Asia (Singapore, South Korea, Hong Kong),
- North America (USA, Canada).
All clients gain access to Aperture Private, an invitation-only lifestyle and investment program featuring exclusive previews, private events, and access to curated off-market opportunities. Full transaction and portfolio management are available via Aperture’s proprietary digital platform, enabling secure remote execution of high-value deals.
Focus on Transparency and Investment Logic
Beyond prestige and design, Aperture Global emphasizes investment performance and long-term value. Each project includes a detailed return model with:
- Forecasted 12–18% capital appreciation over five years,
- Access to short-term luxury rental channels,
- Net annual rental yields between 4.5–6% in the super-prime category.
The digital investor dashboard allows clients to track asset performance in real-time—construction progress, leasing income, operating costs, and market valuations are all integrated into a single reporting interface.
Leadership and Global Team
Aperture Global is led by Marc Dellano, former head of Europe at Christie’s International Real Estate. His multinational team of over 80 professionals spans architecture, finance, design, legal advisory, and client relations.
The headquarters is located in London, with regional offices in Paris, Dubai, and New York. Expansion into Singapore and Geneva is planned for late 2025 and early 2026.
Future Outlook and Expansion Plans
By the end of 2026, Aperture Global aims to:
- Develop over 25 projects across 8 countries,
- Surpass €3 billion in assets under management,
- Enter East Asian markets with new launches in Tokyo and Seoul,
- Implement GRESB-based ESG evaluations across the entire portfolio.
The company is also exploring the creation of its own branded real estate investment fund, enabling investors to acquire fractional shares in Aperture projects—ideal for clients who seek exposure to luxury real estate without direct ownership.
Conclusion
Aperture Global: LPT’s New High-End Real Estate Arm is not just a new division—it’s a bold statement about the future of luxury property. By combining architectural distinction, sustainable standards, top-tier service, and investment transparency, Aperture Global is setting a new benchmark for the elite real estate market.
In a world where prestige properties serve as both lifestyle and legacy assets, Aperture Global emerges as a strategic force with the scale, vision, and execution capability to become a global leader in the luxury real estate sector.
