What Lumis Group does

Grupo Lumis is a privately held Brazilian construction and real estate development group headquartered in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, founded in 1987 by Paulinho Silveira. The group operates through two wholly-owned limited liability companies — LUMIS Construtora e Incorporadora Ltda. (CNPJ 80.696.776/0001-27) and Costa Sul Empreendimentos Imobiliários Ltda. (CNPJ 12.261.895/0001-05) — sharing a single office at Av. Santa Catarina, 1197 in the Estreito neighborhood of Florianópolis. Together the sub-brands develop and commercialize vertical (apartment) and horizontal (subdivision) residential real estate, serving individual and family property buyers in Greater Florianópolis and South Santa Catarina. The group reports a portfolio of more than 30 delivered and commercialized developments across 36+ years of operations and states a vision to extend into other Santa Catarina municipalities and additional Brazilian states.

The company is family-managed and founder-controlled, with no institutional investors, private equity, or venture capital ownership evidenced in the data. Revenue is generated through one-time residential property sales transactions via a centralized sales center (Central de Vendas), dedicated WhatsApp and phone contact lines, and a customer referral program branded "Indique um Amigo." Customer acquisition is sales-led, supplemented by testimonials on the corporate site and a client portal hosted on a third-party CRM (lumis.cvcrm.com.br). Public materials cite ethics, quality, customer experience, and innovation (defined as innovation in stakeholder relationships rather than technology) as core values, and the firm has appointed an LGPD Data Protection Officer (Marina Oliveira de Castro) under Brazil's data protection framework. Underlying technology is traditional construction and real estate development, with no proprietary platforms, APIs, AI/ML capabilities, or app products disclosed.
