In Person
Landmark Properties is a real estate company that develops, acquires, and manages student housing communities across the United States. It operates with a vertically integrated model, controlling every stage of a property’s life cycle—from site selection and construction to leasing and asset management—so it can manage quality and costs more directly. The company targets students near colleges and universities, offering properties with amenities tailored to student life and generating income from rental leases as well as development and management fees. Landmark differentiates itself by owning and running the whole process in-house, rather than outsourcing parts of the work, which helps keep costs predictable and ensure consistent property quality. Its goal is to grow its presence in the growing student housing market and become a leading provider of reliable, well-managed student residences across the country.

Landmark Properties closes $300M student housing fund. The capital will support the developer's projects serving major public universities. Landmark Properties has closed Landmark Sponsor Fund LP, a $300 million investment vehicle focused on student housing developments. The fund, which exceeded its initial $200 million target, will provide development capital for Landmark's projects, where it will serve mostly as a merchant developer. Landmark Sponsor Fund was formed in 2025 and set up in the structure of a limited partnership. It made an initial closing about seven months ago. Investors included insurance companies, pension funds, registered investment advisors and family offices. "The Fund will target investments in and around communities proximate to top publicly chartered universities across the country," said Max LaVictoire, Managing Director at Landmark Properties. "The Fund's existing and near-term investments already include projects in the southeast, northeast, and west coast, and we expect the Fund's portfolio to be highly diversified across the United States," he added. It will also support early-stage executions and accelerate development timelines, while complementing Landmark's longstanding capital partnerships. The fund has already invested in several unspecified development projects in major markets. Landmark has roughly $10 billion in 50 student housing and other multifamily projects in progress. Its portfolio includes over 115 residential communities nationwide, with 74,000 beds under management. Landmark participating in student housing boom.
