    About Landmark Build-to-Rent

    Landmark Properties is the largest developer and one of the largest owners of student housing in the United States, with over $11bn in assets under management.

    The company began operations in 2003 in Athens, Georgia, where it is currently headquartered, by developing purpose-built single-family cottages for students at the University of Georgia. The company completed several projects in Athens and at other southeastern universities prior to the Great Financial Crisis ("GFC"). At the same time, Landmark built a team of development, construction, property management, and asset management professionals, resulting in its current vertically-integrated platform.

    During the GFC, Landmark maintained a substantial balance sheet and aligned itself with institutional capital, allowing it to continue developing in a time when others could not, leaving the company well-positioned as the crisis came to an end. In 2012, in response to customer demand, Landmark began developing mid-rise and high-rise assets, which comprise the majority of the company's assets today. Landmark continues to develop student cottages, but it has become increasingly difficult to identify sites that are both proximate to major universities and large enough to support an institutionally sized cottage asset.

    While student housing remains Landmark's core business, the company recognizes the value in diversifying its asset base. In 2020, Landmark launched its build-to-rent division, which capitalizes on the company's past experience in developing and operating rental homes. A survey of the competitive landscape suggests that other BTR developers are either:
    • Single-family for-sale homebuilders, who are experienced in building single-family homes but are not operators, or,
    • Apartment developers, who are experienced in operating rental properties but have never built single-family homes.
    Landmark is one of the few BTR companies that has both built rental homes and successfully operated them.

    It is Landmark's goal to aggressively grow the BTR platform in the coming years so that BTR substantially contributes to the company's financial success.
