With our deep-rooted network in the industry and extensive market experience, we are uniquely positioned to originate and manage deep value creation projects.

He was on the group’s Board of Directors for the first 15 years, delivering consistent market returns in various European countries, while being Chief Investment Officer. Thomas was an European pioneer in student housing as well as micro apartments, developing large scale portfolios (over 40,000 units) before the sector became a mature, institutional asset class.
Prior to co-launching Corestate Capital Group, Thomas acted as a Senior Investment professional at Cerberus Capital, being involved in landmark transactions across Germany. Prior to that, he worked for major closed-end fund initiators and managed the debt financing for the property development business at a large bank for eight years.

Investment Focus
We identify and execute opportunistic off-market real estate deals.
Alongside with our investment partners, we invest in assets that can be acquired at a discount due to market dislocations, identifiable and correctable impairments or where we see a value potential that is not anticipated by the market.
Our hands-on asset management approach and targeted value enhancement initiatives ensure limited return variability and produce strong economic assets. We cover the full spectrum of the real estate sector, looking at both equity and debt investment opportunities for our investment partners.
Regarding asset classes 777 Capital Partners has an extensive track record both for residential and commercial real estate projects.
Residential & Innovative Living
Especially in the field of residential and in innovative living forms such as student housing, micro living and serviced apartment the firm has deep experience and knowledge. Thomas Landschreiber in his previous positions has been involved in some of the largest residential real estate transactions in Germany. He also built and managed a portfolio of micro living properties with approx. 40,000 units throughout Europe.

Aside from residential projects, the acting individuals have also gained vast experience throughout other assets classes, mainly office, hotel and light industrial.
We apply expertise and local know how to enhance capital value, increase cash flow and reduce risk.
We target inefficiencies in the real estate markets, ranging from the actual structure, financing situation, daily operation or strategic use of the asset. We focus on special situations which require flexible, quick decision processes and / or a hands-on management approach to increase the asset’s fundamental value and cash flow. Our asset management experts can execute our outset business plans but can also flexibly adapt to changing market conditions, in close collaboration with the investment partners.

Our Values
Boutique setup
An agile boutique is the best setup to capitalize on real estate opportunities. An entrepreneurial framework is crucial for successful origination and value creation. Our extensive experience paired with our broad network of best-in-class partners enables us to solve sophisticated and complex real estate situations.
Sociodemographic focus
The world around us is changing at an astounding pace. Demographic changes, an increase in quality and service expectations, an ageing society, technology and sustainable considerations currently lead to monumental changes in society and how we live or work. We are pioneers in leveraging these changes to generate value for our investment partners.
Active investing
We don’t just allocate; we actively invest our partners’ capital. We focus on investments where a hands-on management approach maximizes returns. Whilst many investors look at real estate to preserve wealth, we focus on growing our partners’ capital via short to mid-term projects, seeking opportunities with an attractive risk-return profile.
Management-owned
The firm is wholly owned by its management, who control all strategic and operational decisions. This results in a distinct and valuable alignment of interest with our investment partners and creates proper incentives to meet or exceed investment objectives. The teams’ compensation is tied to the performance of the investments under their management and to the degree to which they meet investor objectives.
ESG
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations are key to everything we do. We believe that integrating these factors in our investment processes leads to superior investment outcomes over the long-term. Whether it is protecting and growing the capital of our investment partners, creating value for our owners or aligning interests with business partners, we are committed to supporting sustainable practices that generate positive environmental and social impact – not just now, but for years to come.
Sustainability considerations, both environmental and social, are critical for our real estate investments. These drive our capital allocation process whenever possible. We believe that a sustainable strategic focus will reinforce that strong financial returns and long-term positive impact can be mutually reinforcing.
