Iconic Developments, a leading real estate developer in Sri Lanka, continues to revolutionize the industry with the introduction of two groundbreaking initiatives—FlexiPay and the Rental Assistance Program. Designed to provide unparalleled flexibility and peace of mind to prospective homeowners, these new offerings reaffirm Iconic’s commitment to enhancing the homebuying experience for its valued customers.

But Iconic’s innovation doesn’t end there. To further ease the financial burden on homebuyers, the company introduces an added advantage—renting out the purchased apartment after making the initial downpayment. This strategic move offers homeowners a supplementary source of income, significantly reducing their monthly installments. With this exceptional rental opportunity, Iconic aims to provide homeowners with greater financial flexibility and stability.

“We understand that buying a home is one of the most significant decisions in our customers’ lives. Our goal is to make this process as convenient and rewarding as possible. With our new FlexiPay plan and the opportunity to rent out purchased apartments, we are empowering our customers to embark on their homeownership journey with confidence,” said Rohan Parikh, Chairperson of Iconic Developments.

In addition to the rental opportunity, Iconic is introducing a thoughtful rental assistance program that streamlines the process of finding suitable tenants for homeowners.

20th June 2023 – Colombo: The USD 500 million + ITC development, comprising the Sapphire Residences and super luxury hotel ITC Ratnadipa, occupies pride of place at the centre of Colombo’s most prestigious ocean front location. Overlooking the Galle Face and the Indian Ocean on one side and the Beira Lake on the other, this landmark is already redefining the city’s skyline. This development by WelcomHotels Lanka (Pvt) Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of leading Indian conglomerate ITC Ltd has successfully navigated significant external challenges and headwinds over the past few years and is now on course towards completion in 2023.

With its distinctive architecture and the eye-catching engineering marvel, the AHASA Sky Bridge, a one-of-a-kind structure in South Asia, installed approximately 100 meters in the air to connect the two towers, this development is poised to become a globally recognized landmark for the city, if not the entire country.

Sapphire Residences is all set to raise the bar of luxury living with interiors exquisitely curated in four distinctive styles by YOO Inspired by Starck. Aptly named ‘Sky Mansions’, at over double the size of other luxury apartments in Colombo, these expansive lateral homes average around 5,500 sq. ft., providing ample space for a whole family – including staff – to enjoy spacious and unhindered comfort.  In addition, there are four penthouses, each covering over 9,300 sq. ft. each and two palatial Master Penthouses spanning a remarkable 19,000 sq. ft each across a single floor.

The development has been designed around the unwavering principle of ‘Responsible Luxury’ which allows discerning patrons to experience luxury with sustainability.  Sapphire Residences has already achieved the globally respected LEED BD+C pre- certification at the highest Platinum level (Core and Shell Development), ensuring the lowest environmental impact of any building of this scale.

Above all, Sapphire Residences will be defined by its residents. This extraordinary complex, which comprises only 132 Sky Mansions and Penthouses, is expected to be home to a select number of individuals who have ascended the pinnacles of success and personal achievement and will appreciate stylish, carefree living in the most luxurious and secure homes in what is perhaps the best possible location in Colombo.
