THE HOSPITALITY BUILDERS

About

Passion. Experience. Diligence.

Our strategy

Lighthouse Investment is based on our common passion for outstanding buildings, strong business models and shaping commercial spaces for the future. We are combining forces from real estate development, finance and investment, as well as hospitality operations and branding.

We position as counter-culture investors who acquire, design and develop transformative platforms based on real estate assets under distress or with underperforming operations. Within these investment environments, we take an experience-driven, hospitality-minded and residentially-inspired approach to design, development, and placemaking.

We lead and invest by passion, performance and culture.
