While high-tech have dominated the crowdfunding headlines, real estate crowdfunding, is also finding success in Europe, according to many industry executives.
Real estate crowdfunding platforms like Fundrise and www.crowd4funds.com are leading a sector which raised over €2 billion in real estate during 2015. By the end of this year, that figure is expected to almost triple, up €6 billion worldwide, according to a Massolution report released this year.
Crowdfunding in real estate, it's catching on, providing access to tens of thousands of investors online, and make it as easy to buy stocks or bonds online.
In the aftermath of 2007/2008's global crisis, people's faith in traditional institutions became unsteady, so the rise of real estate crowdfunding and p2p lending ideas became increasingly attractive. Consequently, investors became more conscious with how to invest, and real estate crowdfunding should provide opportunities suitable even during recession periods.
On www.crowd4funds.com, investors are invited to pool together their money with other users to invest in real-estate projects, putting in as little as €10,000. The average return (7-25%) for the investments varies on risk level.
