Real Estate Crowdfunding

Platforms offering pooled or direct access to private real estate.

What this category covers

Real estate crowdfunding platforms pool investor capital into properties, funds or debt positions. Terms differ substantially: investor eligibility, minimums, whether investors hold fund shares or SPV interests, fee layers, distribution policy, targeted hold periods and whether any redemption program exists.

Platforms in this category (23)

Platform	Investor eligibility	Minimum	Structure	Liquidity
1031 Crowdfunding	Open	Offering-specific. Selected DST offerings currently use roughly $25,000–$100,000 minimums; no universal platform minimum applies across every DST, REIT, QOF or bridge-fund product.	Private real-estate marketplace operated by 1031 Crowdfunding, LLC, with securities broker-dealer services provided by Capulent, LLC for applicable offerings. DST investors buy beneficial interests in property-owning trusts rather than direct deeds, while REIT, QOF and bridge-fund products use their own private-vehicle structures.	Private-market liquidity. DSTs commonly use multi-year holding periods, often about 5–10 years, and there is no guaranteed secondary market or daily redemption; other products use their own offering-specific exit or redemption terms.
Ark7	Open	Current 2026 offering documents show property-series shares around $20 as a starting-share reference. Actual share price is series-specific.	Fractional private real-estate securities issued through property-specific series or entity structures under Regulation A. Investors buy interests in the relevant offering rather than direct deeded fractions of the property; eligible secondary trading is facilitated through PPEX/North Capital after applicable holding requirements.	Secondary trading is available through the PPEX alternative trading system operated by North Capital Private Securities Corporation (CRD 154559) after the holding period. Liquidity is not guaranteed: there may be no buyer, no particular price, no immediate settlement and no full exit, and private real-estate shares can trade at a discount to the original price or current property-value estimate.
Arrived	Open	$100 across current Arrived offerings.	Regulation A private real-estate securities using property-specific series or entity structures for individual rentals plus separate fund vehicles. Investors purchase interests in the relevant series or fund rather than direct deeded ownership of a fractional house.	Not daily and not guaranteed. Eligible individual-property shares can trade in approximately one one-week window per month through limit orders and matching, with no guaranteed sale. Fund-style products are not traded on the individual-property secondary market and instead use redemption programs; the Income Fund has intended quarterly and annual limits of approximately 5% and 20% of NAV.
Cadre	Accredited only	No current universal Cadre minimum for new investors. Cadre's 2026 new-investor path routes through Willow Wealth, while existing Cadre investments remain governed by their individual fund and deal documents; historical Cadre minimums should not be treated as a current platformwide threshold.	Private real-estate investment platform built around privately offered funds and placements for accredited investors; existing Cadre portfolio access continues while the current new-investor path is through Willow Wealth and its affiliated broker/adviser structure.	Private placements are not publicly traded and can require multi-year holding periods. Any secondary-market or transfer mechanism is limited and buyer-dependent, so Cadre does not provide guaranteed or daily liquidity.
CalTier	Open	Product-specific, not universal. Current references include $500 for CalTier Fund I, whose new investments are paused; $189 for CalTier Inc. Regulation A shares; and $5,000 for accredited-only CalTier REIT I.	Private real-estate platform with multiple separate securities and products under the CalTier brand, including Regulation A offerings and an accredited-investor REIT; CalTier Advisors LLC is an SEC-registered internet adviser, while offering brokerage can involve Dalmore Group.	No daily or guaranteed liquidity. Redemption-request mechanics are product-specific, and a paused or private offering can limit practical exit; Regulation A qualification does not create public-market trading.
Concreit	Open	No current verified universal minimum. Older Concreit materials referenced a $1 minimum, but the current 2026 public source package does not clearly establish one live universal entry minimum; current app and offering terms control.	Managed private-real-estate fund experience centered on Concreit Fund I LLC, a Regulation A Tier 2 vehicle advised by Concreit Fund Management LLC; investors receive pooled real-estate exposure rather than selecting individual properties.	Concreit offers a redemption program rather than guaranteed on-demand liquidity. Current terms provide periodic redemption mechanics subject to limits, pricing rules and available capacity; Fund I shares are not exchange-traded.
Crowd Street	Accredited only	Minimums generally start around $25,000 and vary by offering.	Not documented	Private investments are generally illiquid. Private funds can offer periodic redemption or repurchase programs, but availability is vehicle-specific and can be restricted or suspended. There is no dependable secondary market.
DiversyFund	Open	Current 2026 minimums are product-specific and materially higher than DiversyFund's legacy retail REIT positioning. The highlighted accredited-only Distressed Income Fund begins at $100,000, with current tiers extending to $1 million; do not revive the old $500 retail minimum as the current platform headline.	Private real-estate platform whose current highlighted product is Distressed Income Fund, LLC, a Regulation D Rule 506(c) accredited-investor private fund focused on multifamily income/preferred-equity opportunities. Legacy Regulation A REIT vehicles remain active legal structures for existing investors but are not the current low-minimum retail proposition.	Private-fund liquidity. The current Distressed Income Fund is not publicly traded and uses offering-specific duration, extension and redemption/exit mechanics; legacy REIT investors likewise should not assume a guaranteed repurchase or daily-liquidity program.
DLP Capital	Accredited only	Product-specific. Current DLP fund minimums range from $100,000 to $500,000: $500,000 for the Housing and Lending Funds, $200,000 for Preferred Credit and Building Communities, and $100,000 for Living Fully. No single minimum applies to every DLP fund.	Accredited-investor private real-estate platform using multiple credit, equity, REIT or REIT-subsidiary and evergreen fund structures across senior secured lending, preferred credit, housing equity and development strategies; the legal and economic structure varies by fund.	No daily or guaranteed liquidity. DLP funds use product-specific redemption notices, holding periods and distribution mechanics; current materials include a 90-day redemption-notice reference for the Lending Fund, but that term must not be applied to every DLP vehicle.
EquityMultiple	Accredited only	Lowest current starting point $5,000 (e.g. Alpine Note; current Ascent Income Fund first-time investor minimum); typical offering minimums $10,000–$30,000 with $5,000 increments; offering-specific.	Accredited-investor private commercial-real-estate platform offering direct transactions and funds across common equity, preferred equity and debt. Direct investments can be made through an EquityMultiple-managed LLC, a project-payment-dependent note or a sponsor-controlled SPV, while fund structures vary by fund; investors generally hold an interest in the investment vehicle rather than direct deeded ownership of the underlying property.	Private securities are restricted and highly illiquid. EquityMultiple's current FAQ states there is no current secondary market for restricted securities. Expected holding period runs until maturity, sale, refinance, liquidation or another offering-specific exit. Private transfers may be possible with restrictions and are not guaranteed. Fund redemptions are offering-specific; Ascent Income Fund redemption eligibility begins after one year under current terms.
First National Realty Partners	Accredited only	Offering-specific. Current ROIStreet research documents roughly $25,000-$100,000+ per deal depending on the offering; no single deal minimum should be presented as universal across FNRP.	Private commercial-real-estate syndications typically use property-owning investment entities. The investor owns an interest in the investment entity rather than a deeded slice of the shopping center; offering PPM and subscription documents control the exact legal structure.	Illiquid private real estate. FNRP interests can require multi-year holding periods, and transfer rights, refinancing, distributions and exit timing are offering-specific; there is no public exchange or guaranteed redemption program.
Fundrise	Open	$10 minimum initial investment on the taxable platform; $1,000 minimum for an IRA	Private alternative-investment platform in which investors acquire shares of one or more Fundrise-managed funds rather than direct deeded ownership of the underlying real estate. The funds can hold diversified private real-estate assets and other permitted alternative investments, with the applicable fund wrapper and offering documents defining investor rights.	Long-term orientation with no guaranteed liquidity; Flagship and Income funds run quarterly repurchase offers subject to limits; legacy eREIT liquidation requests are typically reviewed quarterly with an approximately 1% penalty under five years
Groundfloor	Open	$10 for individual Loans; $100-$1,000 for principal open-to-all Note terms. The accredited-only Preferred Note currently shows a $10,000 minimum.	Private real-estate credit platform with two distinct core structures. Groundfloor Notes are fixed-term Groundfloor-issued notes backed economically by diversified pools of short-term residential real-estate loans; individual project investments generally use Limited Recourse Obligations tied to repayment of a specified underlying loan. Neither structure makes the investor the direct mortgage lender or property owner.	No daily liquidity and no public secondary market. A short stated maturity does not guarantee cash on the stated date under stressed circumstances.
HappyNest	Open	No current universal individual-investor minimum is verified from the current public onboarding flow. HappyNest's 2026 filings continue to describe the Regulation A offering, but the current public site does not clearly verify a new-subscriber path; the $300,000 filing reference is a company-level offering threshold, not an individual minimum.	HappyNest REIT, Inc. is a non-traded Regulation A real-estate security, externally managed by HappyNest Advisors, LLC and sponsored by HappyNest Holdings, LLC. Investors own REIT shares rather than direct interests in individual properties.	Very limited. HappyNest common shares are not listed on a national securities exchange, and the share-repurchase program terminated January 29, 2026. Daily liquidity and guaranteed liquidity are therefore unavailable.
Lofty	Open	$50 current platform starting reference. Property-share prices vary by listing, so $50 should be treated as a current entry reference rather than a fixed universal account-funding requirement.	Property-specific fractional real-estate ownership through separate LLCs with blockchain-based ownership records. Investors hold membership interests in the LLC that owns the selected property rather than receiving a deeded personal fraction of the real estate.	No contractual minimum holding period, and investors can place sell orders on Lofty's exchange/order book. That flexibility is not guaranteed liquidity: execution depends on buyer demand, pricing and marketplace conditions.
Origin Investments	Accredited only	No universal Origin minimum. Current product references include $100,000 for IncomePlus and Select Asset funds, $50,000 for QOZ Fund III, $100,000 for Strategic Credit and higher thresholds for co-investments or DSTs; the applicable product controls.	Private real-estate platform operated by Origin Investments Group, Inc. using multiple fund and Delaware Statutory Trust structures, including pooled multifamily funds, opportunity-zone funds and 1031-exchange DSTs. Origin Credit Advisers LLC is a separate SEC-registered adviser for applicable credit products.	No universal daily liquidity. Private funds and DSTs use product-specific holding periods, redemption or transfer provisions and asset-sale timing; some products can offer limited redemption mechanics, but there is no guaranteed secondary market.
Realbricks	Open	$100 current primary-market minimum, with current offerings using $10 shares. The minimum applies to the property-specific primary offering and should not be confused with transaction or property-level fees.	Property-specific Regulation A securities in an entity or series associated with an individual rental property. The investor owns an interest in the property-specific entity rather than direct deeded title to the house; Terra Mint Group operates the platform and Dalmore Group serves as broker of record for the offering structure.	Limited private-market liquidity. Realbricks has posted secondary-market terms and intends to use PPEX infrastructure, but current investor materials still label secondary trading as coming soon and current offering materials do not establish a broadly live guaranteed market. Daily liquidity and a guaranteed buyer are unavailable.
RealtyMogul	Open	Both RealtyMogul REITs publish $5,000 minimums, but new-investor subscriptions are currently paused. Individual private placements reference an approximate $35,000 minimum, with offering documents controlling.	Private real-estate platform spanning individual commercial-property private placements, affiliated non-traded REITs, 1031 opportunities and other equity, preferred-equity, debt and fund structures. Investor ownership and rights depend on the specific offering; the platform should not be reduced to one universal REIT or one universal private-placement wrapper.	Share-repurchase programs for both REITs were suspended on April 21, 2026, and distribution reinvestment activity was also suspended under current filings. Private placements remain illiquid until a sponsor-controlled exit.
Roots	Open	$100 current minimum per investment transaction, including the initial investment and subsequent transactions.	Pooled Regulation A Tier 2 residential real-estate vehicle through Roots Real Estate Investment Community I, LLC, which operates with REIT tax treatment and exposure to single-family and multifamily/workforce housing. Investors own private fund/REIT units rather than selecting or receiving direct deeded ownership of individual houses.	Limited private-REIT liquidity through the Roots cash-out program rather than an exchange. Shares are not publicly listed, daily liquidity is unavailable and cash-out requests are not guaranteed; current terms also impose an early-withdrawal penalty for certain exits inside the first year.
Small Change	Open	No universal Small Change minimum. Each real-estate offering sets its own threshold; current and recent projects can range from several hundred dollars to $1,000, $5,000 or other offering-specific amounts. The campaign page and offering documents control.	Project-by-project real-estate crowdfunding using two distinct securities lanes: Regulation Crowdfunding offerings through NSSC Funding Portal, LLC and accredited-investor Rule 506(c) offerings through NSSC Crowd, LLC. Investors generally own interests in an offering entity or real-estate-backed security rather than direct deeded ownership of the property.	No public secondary market or daily liquidity. Small Change securities can face transfer and securities-law restrictions, and a willing buyer may not exist; investors should generally expect long, uncertain holding periods tied to the project.
Streitwise	Open	No current minimum applies because the direct stock purchase plan is suspended. Any historical minimum belongs only in historical context.	Non-traded Regulation A office REIT structure issued by 1st stREIT Office Inc. and managed by SW Manager, LLC. Investors own shares of the private REIT rather than exchange-listed REIT shares or direct interests in individual office properties; as of the current review, direct purchases/DRIP and the stockholder redemption program are suspended.	Constrained. Direct purchases, DRIP and redemptions are suspended, there is no exchange listing and no public secondary market. The company has begun evaluating possible strategic alternatives intended to provide stockholder liquidity, but no transaction is guaranteed.
Upright	Open	Product-specific. Current public references include $5,000 for individual project notes, $1,000 for Pre-Fund, and $15,000 for Horizon and Blueprint. No single Upright minimum applies across all note and fund products.	Private residential real-estate credit platform using borrower-dependent or project-note structures plus pooled funds. Under the established individual-note model, FTF Lending originates the underlying loan and issues the related investor note; the investor owns the note rather than becoming the direct mortgage lender or property owner.	No secondary market and no daily liquidity. Investors should generally be prepared to hold notes or fund interests through maturity or longer if an underlying loan is extended or enters workout; current Pre-Fund/PFNF updates also show that expected liquidity can be delayed and is not guaranteed.
Willow Wealth (formerly Yieldstreet)	Accredited only	Direct investments typically begin at $5,000 with $1,000 increments (offering-specific); Willow 360 managed portfolios begin at $25,000.	Private-markets investment platform operated under the Willow Wealth brand, formerly Yieldstreet, with product-specific legal roles. Willow Asset Management LLC is the affiliated SEC-registered adviser that manages Willow funds and Willow 360 managed portfolios; Willow Wealth Markets LLC is an affiliated SEC/FINRA/SIPC broker-dealer for applicable private-market activity; Willow Wealth also uses Atomic Brokerage with Pershing custody for certain managed-portfolio brokerage accounts. Direct offerings, managed portfolios and fund products retain their own governing documents and liquidity terms.	Direct private offerings are highly illiquid with transfer restrictions and no guaranteed early exit. Third-party evergreen funds may offer periodic, limited liquidity that is offering-specific. Willow 360 restricts liquidity in the first year, then allows a liquidation election whose timing depends on the underlying funds. Willow Wealth Markets LLC supports an affiliated secondary market only for certain qualifying real-estate private-fund interests; there is no universal secondary market.

Minimum: No current universal individual-investor minimum is verified from the current public onboarding flow. HappyNest's 2026 filings continue to describe the Regulation A offering, but the current public site does not clearly verify a new-subscriber path; the $300,000 filing reference is a company-level offering threshold, not an individual minimum.
