    Success
Testing the waters helps a sponsor gauge demand in the marketplace for a potential future offering. Investors like you can express interest by indicating a non-binding planned investment amount. If demand is sufficient, the sponsor may choose to offer the investment for sale.
Live offerings are actively accepting investment funds. In local public offerings, residents of the state(s) where the offering was registered may invest. In private offerings, any US accredited investor may invest. If the offering does not reach its funding goal, the money is returned to the investors.
Funded offerings have successfully reached 100 percent or more of their funding goal. At this point, the investment funds are transferred to the sponsor. Investors can monitor the progress of their investment, download tax documents and potentially receive distributions via their Fundrise portfolio.

Why invest in local real estate on Fundrise?

Access a new asset class

Traditionally, investing in commercial real estate has only been accessible to the very wealthy, through property ownership or investment funds. Fundrise members have the ability to invest at levels accessible to everyone.

Choose where to invest

Unlike private equity funds or REITs where investors blindly invest in pools, Fundrise members select individual property offerings in which to invest, curating their own portfolio and choosing how to diversify.

Cut out the middlemen

Fundrise cuts out Wall Street middlemen, connecting members directly to their investments. This reduces unnecessary fees and transaction costs, ultimately producing greater potential returns per investment.

Support local businesses

Today it’s easier to invest in companies on the other side of the world than in your own neighborhood. Fundrise gives you the ability to support and profit from tangible projects that you know, understand, and care about.

Connect with a community

Fundrise is built on a transparent community of like-minded investors. Unlike investing in publicly traded stocks and bonds, you have the ability to know both with whom and in what you are investing.

Build your city

Instead of remote investment funds focused solely on generating short-term returns, individual investors can decide which projects to fund, ultimately creating the ability to transform your own environment.
