We think crowdfunding is an industry with significant long-term growth potential, and Avesta is committed to growing our base of capital partners through this new vertical. RealtyShares’ ability to serve as the intermediary between sponsors and investors maximizes efficiency, and allows Avesta to focus on adding value to our communities and capital partners.”

Bryan SchultzBryan Schultz, Vice President of Equity Investments at RealtyShares, added:

“With the flexibility to raise minor, non-controlling equity interest in deals like Bridgewater, RealtyShares demonstrates value to deal sponsors looking to supplement their capital relationships. In addition, it creates value for the private investment community by providing access to deals that are typically reserved for institutional investors. It’s a pleasure to be able to offer an opportunity to invest with a partner as established as Avesta.”
