Overview

Cadre is no longer a standalone new-investor funnel in the form many older reviews describe.

The current Cadre homepage states:

Cadre has joined with Willow Wealth.

Its 2026 operating split is now explicit:

  • existing Cadre investors continue to log into Cadre to monitor current investments, performance, statements and documents;
  • new investors are directed to Willow Wealth for private-market investing.

That change is more important than any historical minimum or old Cadre fee table.

A current ROIStreet review should therefore treat Cadre as:

an existing private-real-estate investment platform and portfolio interface that has transitioned new-investor acquisition into the Willow Wealth organization.

This is not the same thing as saying Cadre disappeared.

Existing investments remain relevant.

May fit better for

  • existing Cadre investors managing legacy/current positions;
  • accredited investors evaluating the structure of Cadre-originated private real-estate funds;
  • readers trying to understand how Cadre fits into Willow Wealth;
  • investors able to accept multi-year illiquidity;
  • investors comfortable with private-fund fees and sponsor promotes.

May fit less well for

  • a new investor expecting to open a fresh standalone Cadre portfolio today;
  • non-accredited U.S. investors;
  • investors requiring public-market liquidity;
  • users who want a conventional brokerage account;
  • investors who want a single universal fee;
  • readers relying on stale Cadre/Yieldstreet legal names.

The decisive 2026 status change: new investors are routed to Willow Wealth

Current Cadre homepage:

  • Cadre existing investor portal: Yes
  • Cadre new investor path: Willow Wealth
  • Standalone Cadre new investor funnel: No

The page tells existing investors they can continue to:

  • monitor portfolios;
  • view performance;
  • obtain account statements;
  • access documents.

The page separately tells new investors to get started on Willow Wealth.

The current broker-dealer is Willow Wealth Markets LLC

Cadre's older Terms of Service still contains the historical name Yieldstreet Markets LLC (f/k/a RealCadre LLC).

That is no longer the controlling current broker identity.

Cadre's June 1, 2026 Regulation Best Interest disclosure states:

  • Current broker dealer: Willow Wealth Markets LLC
  • CRD: 172295
  • SEC number: 8-69506
  • FINRA member: Yes
  • SIPC member: Yes

Current FINRA BrokerCheck confirms the same legal name and numbers and shows the firm is registered with the SEC, FINRA and 53 U.S. states/territories.

Store the naming transition explicitly:

  • Legacy terms broker name: Yieldstreet Markets LLC (f/k/a RealCadre LLC)
  • Current broker name: Willow Wealth Markets LLC

---

Cadre and Willow Wealth are connected but should not be merged into one review

ROIStreet already has a canonical Willow Wealth review under the legacy Yieldstreet URL.

Cadre remains a distinct platform/brand and historical investment interface.

Current Cadre disclosures identify:

  • Willow Wealth Markets LLC — broker-dealer;
  • Willow Asset Management LLC — affiliated SEC-registered investment adviser;
  • Willow Wealth Inc. — parent organization referenced in current disclosures.

---

U.S. Cadre offerings were built for accredited investors

Current Cadre Terms of Service states that website offerings are intended only for accredited investors in the United States and for eligible foreign investors where exemptions apply.

Because new investor acquisition now routes to Willow Wealth, an old Cadre minimum should not be imported as a current universal 2026 entry threshold.

Deal and fund documents control any existing investment minimum.

---

Current fee framework is transaction-specific

The June 1, 2026 Regulation Best Interest disclosure gives the most useful current general fee ranges for the private-fund structure associated with Willow Wealth Markets and its affiliates.

For primary offerings where the broker acts as placement agent:

  • Placement or acquisition fee: not expected to exceed approximately 4% of investor capital commitment
  • Paid by: Fund

The affiliated adviser is described as typically receiving:

  • Asset management fee: average 1.00%-1.50% of then-current equity value
  • Administration fee: average 0.25%-0.50% of then-current equity value for certain Funds
  • Promote or carried interest: may apply through affiliate

Those percentages do not belong in one mechanically added headline fee.

They can use different bases:

  • commitment;
  • current equity value;
  • realized investment profit or promote economics.

The disclosure states that actual application and percentage are negotiated for each transaction and disclosed in the relevant offering/update documents.

---

A 4% placement-fee reference is not the same as a 4% investor debit

The current disclosure says the placement/acquisition fee is paid by the Fund and is not expected to exceed approximately 4% of the capital commitment attributable to each investor.

For a simplified $100,000 commitment:

$100,000 × 4% = $4,000

That illustrates the scale of a maximum reference amount on that base.

It should not be presented as a universal $4,000 invoice charged directly to every investor.

The economic cost can be borne inside the fund structure.

---

Illiquidity remains central

Current Cadre Terms describe posted investments as:

  • private placements;
  • not publicly traded;
  • subject to holding-period requirements;
  • appropriate for investors who do not need liquidity.

Historical Cadre structures included limited secondary-market functionality, but the existence of an ATS or transaction mechanism should never be described as a guaranteed exit.

Current Willow Wealth Markets disclosures also state that private-market investments can be illiquid and may result in total loss.

---

SIPC membership does not insure private real estate

Willow Wealth Markets is a SIPC-member broker-dealer.

That does not mean SIPC guarantees:

  • property value;
  • fund NAV;
  • rent collections;
  • sponsor performance;
  • sale proceeds;
  • private-fund liquidity;
  • investment returns.

Current Cadre Terms also state that investments are not bank deposits and are not FDIC insured.

Assessment

The most important fact in a Cadre review is now the transition itself.

A reader arriving from an old search result may reasonably expect to find a standalone Cadre marketplace taking new real-estate investments.

The current website says something different:

  • existing Cadre investors keep their Cadre account access;
  • new investors are sent to Willow Wealth;
  • Willow Wealth Markets is now the current broker-dealer name;
  • Willow Asset Management is the current affiliated adviser;
  • private-market fee layers remain transaction-specific;
  • liquidity remains limited.

That makes Cadre useful as a current-status review even though it is no longer the independent new-investor destination it once was.
