The renewed partnership highlights the continued confidence between the two companies and reflects growing opportunities within Sri Lanka real estate as demand for high-quality residential properties continues to evolve.

Capital Trust Properties (CTP) has officially renewed its partnership with John Keells Properties to market several flagship residential developments, including Cinnamon Life, TRI-ZEN, Viman, and Vauxhall DSTRCT. The collaboration marks another significant milestone in the relationship between the two organizations and underscores their shared commitment to delivering value to property buyers, investors, and homeowners.

Over the years, Capital Trust Properties has established itself as one of Sri Lanka’s leading property transaction and advisory firms. Since its founding in 2010, the company has expanded its service portfolio beyond traditional property sales, offering comprehensive solutions that include legal coordination, property valuations, development advisory services, mortgage recommendations, rental advisory, furnishing support, and developer due diligence.

The renewed agreement reflects Capital Trust Properties’ strategic approach to partnerships, which focuses on credibility, transparency, ethical business practices, and long-term value creation. The company evaluates developers and projects based on governance standards, financial credibility, and market reputation to ensure clients receive reliable guidance when making property investment decisions.

As Sri Lanka real estate continues to adapt to changing buyer preferences and investment trends, partnerships between developers and professional advisory firms are becoming increasingly important. Industry observers note that buyers today seek greater transparency, expert guidance, and comprehensive support throughout the purchasing process, particularly when investing in large-scale residential developments.

Commenting on the renewed collaboration, Capital Trust Properties Chairperson, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder Minoli Wickramasinghe emphasized the company’s commitment to maintaining high professional standards and creating long-term value for all stakeholders involved.

She stated that the partnership with John Keells Properties reflects the principles that have guided the company since its inception, including professionalism, credibility, transparency, and ethical business conduct. According to Wickramasinghe, the company views its role as extending beyond facilitating transactions, focusing instead on helping clients make informed decisions while supporting developers through structured advisory services.

John Keells Properties also welcomed the continuation of the partnership, highlighting the value that Capital Trust Properties brings to the residential property sector.

Nadeem Shums, Head of Sales and Marketing for the Property Group and Vice President of the John Keells Group, noted that Capital Trust Properties has consistently demonstrated a strong understanding of the local residential property market. He said the company’s professional approach to customer engagement has contributed to strengthening market access, enhancing customer confidence, and improving the overall property buying experience.

The partnership is expected to support the continued promotion of several landmark residential developments that have become significant additions to Colombo’s urban landscape. Projects such as Cinnamon Life, TRI-ZEN, Viman, and Vauxhall DSTRCT have attracted attention from both local and international investors seeking modern living spaces, lifestyle-focused amenities, and long-term investment potential.

Beyond marketing support, Capital Trust Properties has built a reputation for helping property owners and developers maximize the value of residential developments through integrated advisory services. These services include maintenance planning, furnishing recommendations, rental potential assessments, and strategies aimed at enhancing long-term property appeal.

This broader approach has enabled the company to build lasting relationships with both developers and buyers while promoting informed decision-making across the sector. As competition within the residential developments market increases, the ability to provide end-to-end support is becoming an increasingly valuable differentiator.

The announcement that Capital Trust Properties extends partnership with John Keells Properties reflects continued optimism about the future of Sri Lanka’s property sector and the importance of trusted industry partnerships. With major residential developments continuing to reshape the country’s urban landscape, both companies are expected to play a key role in supporting buyers, investors, and homeowners through a professional and transparent approach.

As the market continues to mature, industry stakeholders believe that collaborations focused on trust, expertise, and customer value will remain essential in driving sustainable growth across Sri Lanka real estate and creating stronger opportunities within the residential developments sector.
