IPO-ing Real Estate Properties: How It Works

Landa was formed with a simple mission, allowing everyone to build their real estate portfolio, share by share.

Transforming properties to shares is game-changing. It creates broader access, new levels of liquidity, better price discovery, and allows more individuals to invest.

It's also enabling us to evaluate the economics of real estate in ways that didn't exist before.

How much value is created when we IPO a property and convert it to 10,000 shares that are available for purchase to the public?

Using data from Landa’s historical share prices during IPO as well as secondary share prices (until August 21, 2023*) we found that on average, investors that invested in the IPO stage made 88% growth on price per share.

It is fair to say that under any market analysis the real estate market didn’t grow at 88%. It was actually not a great year for the real estate market. Prices were between stable and in minor decline.

The fact that 95% of America doesn't have access to the real estate market, allows us to unlock huge value opportunities in the properties offered.

So what exactly is the add-value that is being generated to the properties by adding them to Landa where everyone can buy and sell their shares?

We believe that’s a combination of access, liquidity, reduced costs and tech.

Access. Every rental property offers an economic interest (shares) that investors can purchase for under $10, creating an affordable starting point for real estate investing. Investors who purchase these shares receive their portion of the property’s profit (based on performance). We designed a mobile (and desktop) app that makes it easy to browse properties and invest in them. We use clear language and a user interface that is inclusive, inviting, and educational.

Liquidity. A property can take months (or years) to sell. We decided to turn real estate properties into securities, allowing investors to conveniently buy and sell their shares in shorter time frames.

Reduced Costs. By investing in shares of real estate, investors can avoid the costs of typical real estate ownership transfers (there are no brokers, closing attorneys, or title companies to pay). We use technology to make day-to-day property management more efficient, and use economies of scale to reduce costs (insurance, maintenance, improvements, etc.). We internalized the sourcing, acquisition, and property management of the properties.

Tech. We embrace a tech-first approach to our entire business. For every challenge that we have (real estate, legal, accounting, operations), our first call is to hire another engineer rather than another operations person. We evaluate and select properties using data analysis models. We analyze market data to empower our investor community, increasing yields while reducing vacancies. Our residents use a custom-built app to make rent payments, request maintenance, renew leases, etc.

Landa's approach of converting properties into shares has not only expanded the real estate investment landscape but also offered remarkable returns to its investors, even in a challenging market year. The impressive 95% growth in price per share from the IPO stage to the secondary market, as evidenced by our data, underscores the potential that exists when broadening access to a historically exclusive market. By seamlessly integrating the principles of accessibility, liquidity, cost efficiency, and technology, Landa ensures that both investors and residents benefit from a system designed for efficiency, transparency, and inclusivity. As we continue our journey, we remain committed to enabling every individual to tap into the world of real estate, one share at a time.

("Landa Holdings") operates the www.landa.app website (the "Site") and the mobile-based app (the "App"). Landa Holdings serves as manager to Landa App LLC and Landa App 2 LLC. From time to time, Landa Holdings may organize limited liability companies or series limited liability companies, such as Landa App LLC and Landa App 2 LLC, and will raise funds for these entities through the App by relying on offerings exempt from registration requirements pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Regulation A”). Such companies shall be collectively referred to herein as “Landa App”.
Neither Landa Holdings nor Landa App is a broker-dealer or an investment advisor. All securities-related activity is conducted through Dalmore Group LLC (“Dalmore”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA/SIPC, located at 525 Green Place, Woodmere, NY 11598. You can review the brokercheck for Dalmore. Banking services are provided by Evolve Bank & Trust, Member FDIC. By opening a custody account on the App, you agree to Evolve Bank & Trust’s Custodial Agreement.

All securities (“Shares”) are being offered by one or more series (“Series”) registered under Landa App. Investing in securities involves risks, and there is always the potential of losing money when you invest in securities. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments such as those offered by Landa App are speculative and involve substantial risks to consider before investing, outlined in the respective offering materials and including, but not limited to, illiquidity, lack of diversification, and complete loss of capital. An investment in an offering constitutes only an investment in a particular Series and not in Landa Holdings, Landa App, or any of the underlying asset(s). investors should carefully review the risks located in the respective offering materials for a more comprehensive discussion of risks.

You should speak with your financial advisor, accountant, and/or attorney when evaluating any offering of securities. Neither Landa Holdings, Landa App, nor Dalmore makes any recommendations or provides advice about investments, and no communication, through this website or in any other medium, should be construed as a recommendation for any security offered on or off this investment platform. Nothing in this material should be construed as investment or tax advice, or a solicitation or offer, or a recommendation to buy or sell any securities. The Site and/or the App may make forward-looking statements. You should not rely on these statements but should carefully evaluate the offering materials in assessing any investment opportunity, including the complete set of risk factors that are provided as part of the offering circular for your consideration.  We urge you to review the applicable offering circular, available here.
Landa Holdings intends to conduct a securities offering by each Series registered under Landa App pursuant to Regulation A.  From time to time, Landa App will seek to qualify additional Series offerings of securities under Regulation A. For offerings that have not yet been qualified, no money or other consideration is being solicited and, if sent in response, will not be accepted. No offer to buy Shares of a particular offering can be accepted, and no part of the purchase price can be received until an offering statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to that Series has been qualified by the SEC. Any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time before notice of acceptance given after the date of qualification by the SEC. An indication of interest involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.
Investment overviews contained on the Site and/or the App contain summaries of the purpose and the principal business terms of the investment opportunities. Such summaries are intended for informational purposes only and do not purport to be complete, and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained in the applicable offering circular filed with the SEC. Neither Landa Holdings nor Landa App offers refunds after an investment has been made. Please review the relevant offering materials and subscription documentation for more information. All Shares will be issued in electronic form only and will not be listed or quoted on any securities exchange. We expect that after a Series’ offering has concluded, the Public Private Execution Network Alternative Trading System, or PPEX ATS (the “Secondary Trading Platform”), which is registered with the SEC and operated by North Capital Private Securities Corporation (“North Capital”), will be a venue available for the resale of such Shares through Dalmore, as a broker-dealer member of the Secondary Trading Platform; provided, however, any such resale of Shares will be subject to federal and state securities laws and the restrictions in the Series’ Operating Agreement, and there can be no assurance that an active market for any Shares will develop on the Secondary Trading Platform, that the Secondary Trading Platform will be available to allow resales of Shares to residents of all states, or that the Secondary Trading Platform will be available at all. For these reasons, investors must be prepared to hold their Shares indefinitely.
