We’re a group of real estate professionals with the mission of bringing transparency to the real estate crowdfunding space.
There’s a notable scarcity of independent consumer guides for navigating this relatively new industry. We aim to fill that gap for self-directed investors.
Check in with us weekly for news roundups and platform reviews. We've already written reviews of Yieldstreet, Fundrise, CrowdStreet, EquityMultiple, RealtyMogul, Groundfloor, and Arrived.
We believe in the potential of real estate crowdfunding (or "real estate crowd investing") as a wealth-building tool, and though no investment is without risk, crowdfunded real estate investments may provide investors with numerous benefits. Since real estate investments are alternative investments, they offer a compelling diversifying element within a traditional "60/40 portfolio" of stocks and bonds. Another example: "1031 exchange" investments on real estate crowdfunding platforms may allow investors to sell their existing real estate while deferring the payment of capital gains taxes.
That said, not all real estate crowdfunding platforms are worthy of your capital, and some are better than others. Some platforms will work for certain investors but not others. Some platforms are completely inaccessible to investors who don't meet the SEC's standards for accreditation (net worth/income benchmarks).
