Why Branded Residences Add Value to Mixed-Use Developments
In today’s competitive real estate market, branded residences are proving to be more than luxury homes, they are powerful drivers of value within mixed-use developments.
The logic is simple: when a trusted global name like St. Regis, Aman, or Mandarin Oriental is attached to a residential tower, the entire project benefits. Residential units achieve higher sales velocity, commercial spaces gain prestige, and hospitality offerings see greater demand.
For developers, this translates into premium pricing, faster ROI, and long-term project resilience. The brand halo effect extends across retail, F&B, and entertainment components, making the entire ecosystem more attractive to investors and buyers alike.
For marketers, it’s a chance to position projects not just as real estate, but as aspirational lifestyle destinations. Storytelling shifts from amenities to experiences, from square meters to global brand equity.
For buyers, branded residences provide an added layer of confidence, knowing that their investment carries the standards, design language, and service promise of a global brand. In uncertain markets, this assurance becomes invaluable.
Mixed-use projects are increasingly the blueprint for urban growth. Adding branded residences into the mix creates a synergy of lifestyle, investment, and place-making that lifts the entire development.
As branded residences reshape the future of mixed-use projects, the winners will be the developers, marketers, and buyers who recognise that value lies not just in property, but in the power of brand and lifestyle.
