Estateguru, a European platform specializing in property-backed loans, has recently announced two significant updates that underscore its role in supporting the real estate sector.
Estateguru reports that it has reached a key milestone by paying out €90 million in interest to its investors, while also facilitating a nearly one-million-euro loan for Estonian developer Everaus Kinnisvara in three days.
These achievements highlight Estateguru’s ability to deliver returns and maintain investor confidence, thus cementing its position as a key player in the European crowdfunding sector.
Estateguru’s announcement of €90 million in interest paid to investors marks a pivotal moment in its 10-year+ journey.
Since its inception back in 2014, the platform has facilitated over €850 million in loans across eight European countries, funding more than 7,000 real estate projects.
This milestone reflects not only the platform’s financial achievements but also its broader impact on development across the pan-European region.
According to Estateguru, these investments have now reportedly contributed to the construction of approximately 10,000 apartments, making cities across Europe more modern, energy-efficient, and welcoming.
The €90 million in interest payments underscores the platform’s ability to deliver stable returns, with investors historically earning an average annual return of around 10%.
This consistency is said to be driven primarily by Estateguru’s rigorous approach to risk management, where all loans are secured by first-rank mortgages and subjected to data-driven analysis by seasoned real estate professionals.
The platform’s use of the latest technology, including Moody’s Analytics for loan scoring, further enhances the quality of its portfolio.
In 2023 alone, Estateguru investors funded €99 million in new loans, with 95% performing positively, demonstrating the platform’s resilience in a challenging economic climate.
In addition to these updates, Estateguru noted that Estonian real estate developer Everaus Kinnisvara raised €954,000 through the platform for a residential land acquisition in just three working days.
The loan attracted 4,218 individual investors, showcasing the platform’s ability to mobilize a diverse and active investor base.
This steady funding reflects the growing demand for accessible real estate investment opportunities and the confidence investors place in Estateguru’s vetted projects.
The Everaus Kinnisvara project aligns with Estateguru’s mission to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by providing faster, more flexible financing.
The platform’s digital ecosystem connects developers with a global community of over 160,000 investors, enabling seamless cross-border transactions.
The success of this loan highlights the increasing utilization of Estateguru’s Auto Invest feature, which had reportedly accounted for 60% of investments in 2023, allowing investors to diversify their investment portfolios.
