What The LCP Group does

The LCP Group, L.P. is a privately held real estate investment management firm founded in 1974 by Robert Roskind as Lepercq Capital Partners and headquartered in White Plains, New York. The firm sources, structures, and executes real estate investment opportunities across multiple asset classes, organized around five integrated platforms: Hotel Investment (debt and equity financing for hospitality properties), Net Lease (single-tenant commercial properties), Other Commercial Real Estate (multifamily, office, and land), the EB-5 Visa Investment Program (foreign investor capital paired with U.S. residency pathways), and LCP Ventures (early-stage seed and Series A investments). LCP also operates a dedicated debt platform offering senior loans, mezzanine financing, and preferred equity for hotel owners and developers.

The firm serves three principal customer segments: foreign EB-5 investors seeking U.S. permanent residency through job-creating real estate investments ($800,000–$1,050,000 minimums); institutional investors such as pension funds and REITs seeking exposure to U.S. hotel, net lease, and commercial real estate; and high net worth individuals making direct investments with a $100,000 minimum. Distribution occurs through direct institutional sales, USCIS-designated regional centers covering major U.S. markets, immigration attorney referrals, and a Coldwell Banker Relocation Services partnership. Revenue is generated through management fees on approximately $1 billion in assets under management, origination and structuring fees on debt and equity transactions, and EB-5 administrative fees of up to $80,000 per project. The firm has facilitated over $550 million in EB-5 capital across $5 billion+ in aggregate project value, maintains a 100% USCIS approval rate across adjudicated projects, and has supported more than 1,100 green card applications and 34,000+ U.S. jobs.
