Building a Real Estate Portfolio Through Crowdfunding

Real Estate Crowdfunding (REC) has emerged as a captivating intersection of technology, real estate investment, and collective financial endeavor. With projections indicating a market valuation of USD 161.8 billion by 2030, REC is undeniably a burgeoning domain in the investment landscape​1​. As a nascent investor or a seasoned one looking to diversify, creating a well-rounded portfolio through REC can be a rewarding venture. This article elucidates a strategic pathway to building a robust portfolio in this realm.

Understanding Your Investment Goals

The maiden step in this journey is to have a lucid understanding of your investment objectives. Are you inclined towards regular rental income, long-term appreciation, or perhaps a blend of both? Your goals will steer the selection of projects on crowdfunding platforms, aligning with your financial strategy​​.

Researching Crowdfunding Platforms

The REC landscape is dotted with a myriad of platforms, each with its unique offerings. A diligent comparison considering aspects like fees, track record, investor protections, and the variety of real estate opportunities is imperative. Opt for platforms with a solid reputation and transparent operations, ensuring a sound foundation for your investments​​.

Diversification: The Risk Mitigator

Diversification is your armor against risk. By spreading your investments across multiple projects or properties, you not only mitigate risk but also open doors to a variety of property types and locations, enriching your portfolio with a diversified real estate flavor​​.

Conducting Due Diligence

Each investment opportunity warrants a thorough examination. Delve into property details, financial projections, and the track record of property developers or owners. An informed investor is a wise investor; hence, don't shy away from asking questions and seeking clarifications when necessary​​.

Assessing the Risk-Return Profile

A sagacious assessment of the risk-return profile of each investment is crucial. Equity-based investments, though high on risk, promise significant returns, while debt-based investments are less risky but might yield lower returns. Balancing your portfolio in alignment with your risk tolerance and financial goals is paramount​.

Staying Abreast of Market Trends

The real estate market is a dynamic entity, influenced by broader economic conditions. Keeping a finger on the pulse of real estate market trends and economic shifts will empower you to make informed investment decisions​​.

Exercising Patience

REC investments are not a sprint but a marathon. Property projects take time to fructify, and rental income can fluctuate. Exhibiting patience and avoiding impulsive decisions based on short-term market fluctuations is advisable​.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance

REC operates within a legal and regulatory framework that varies by jurisdiction. Understanding the legal milieu governing your investments and adhering to regulations is non-negotiable to protect your investments and rights as an investor​.

Financial Capacity and Historical Performance

Invest according to your financial capacity and consider platforms with a commendable historical performance track record. For instance, platforms like Groundfloor have exhibited a historical track record of generating attractive returns, making them a viable option for new investors​​.

Conclusion

Building a portfolio through Real Estate Crowdfunding is a structured endeavor, laden with research, strategic planning, and continuous learning. Following the guided approach delineated above, you can navigate the REC landscape with informed confidence, creating a portfolio poised for growth and diversification in the long run.

All securities offered by the Landa Entities and Landa Financing are deemed “Shares”. Investing in Shares involves risks, and there is always the potential of losing money when you invest in Shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments in Shares 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.

All Shares will be issued in electronic form only and will not be listed or quoted on any securities exchange. After a Series’ offering has concluded, we expect that 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 the only venue available for the resale of Shares. Resales of Shares will be conducted by 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.
