What kind of properties does Ascendas specialize in?

Ascendas specializes in the development and renovation of high-end villas in prime locations across Dubai, India, and select resort destinations such as Thailand. We focus on creating bespoke luxury homes featuring world-class design and exceptional finishes.

Do you only work on your own projects or take on client commissions?

While our primary focus is on developing our own properties, we selectively take on client commissions and joint ventures that align with our vision, commitment to quality, and market positioning.

What is your renovation process like?

Our process includes detailed site analysis, value-maximization planning, design collaborations with top architects and interior designers, and execution with premium craftsmanship. We manage all stages end-to-end to deliver seamless results.

Can you redevelop an existing villa for us?

Yes, we provide customized redevelopment solutions for villa owners aiming to enhance their property for personal use or resale. We also offer profit-sharing models through joint venture partnerships where there is strategic alignment.

Does Ascendas work with investors or capital partners?

Yes, we actively partner with private investors and institutional capital through both equity and joint venture models. Our investment structures are transparent, with aligned incentives and well-defined exit strategies.

What types of returns can investors expect?

Returns vary depending on the project. We present conservative, base, and upside scenarios using detailed financial models. As a reference, certain projects target internal rates of return (IRR) of 20–30% over a 12–24 month cycle, subject to market conditions and project scale.

Do you offer co-investment or carry structures?

Yes. As developer-partners, we frequently co-invest substantial capital alongside our investors and may participate through a carry or profit-sharing arrangement, ensuring strong alignment of interests.

Can international investors participate in your projects?

Absolutely. We regularly work with global investors and can structure investments to accommodate both local and offshore stakeholders, including the use of tax-efficient vehicles where appropriate.

How transparent is your development and investment process?

Transparency is a core value at Ascendas. We provide clear cost breakdowns, detailed financial forecasts, and regular milestone updates to ensure all stakeholders are fully informed throughout every stage of the project.

Do you provide regular reporting?

Yes, we provide monthly updates that include financial tracking, progress against timelines, site photographs, and key strategic decisions. In addition, we conduct quarterly reviews with our capital partners to ensure ongoing alignment and transparency.

How do you choose which properties to develop?

We combine data-driven market analysis, deep local expertise, and strong design potential to identify undervalued or underutilized properties that offer the opportunity for significant value appreciation through redevelopment.

What makes Ascendas different from other real estate developers?

Our boutique approach, design-driven execution, focus on luxury repositioning, and investor-aligned partnership model distinguish us. Each villa we develop is thoughtfully crafted to enhance lifestyle, aesthetic appeal, and long-term value.
