In the past, investing in real estate was a very convoluted and reclusive process. It is a multi-trillion dollar industry and most investments are still done with pen and paper and with capital requirements in the hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. By marrying technology with changes in regulations under the JOBS Act, we have a been able to streamline the investment process, offer greater accessibility and reduce the barrier to entry substantially. This is game changing for the real estate industry and we’re excited to be at the forefront.”
