Democratizing access to private real estate investments and creating a positive impact

by Crowd Street Editorial Team

This month marks the 9th anniversary of Crowd Street's Marketplace, a pioneering online investment platform for private real estate investors and sponsors. 

As we reflect on the past nine years, we are proud to have been a part of the journey to democratize access to private real estate investments and create a positive impact on society. 

 

Nine Meaningful Milestones

  • Launched Crowd Street Marketplace and raised $1.6 million in three weeks for its first sponsor, Mainstreet Capital, validating the founders' vision and marking the beginning of an exciting journey in the world of real estate investing


2018

  • Established Crowd Street Advisors, a federally registered investment advisor, to guide investors who seek exposure to the commercial real estate space but don't have the time or expertise to build a portfolio themselves

  • Introduced Crowd Street Funds and Privately Managed Accounts service to provide even more options to investors  

 

2020

  • Crossed the $1 billion threshold in total invested capital through the Crowd Street Marketplace since inception

 

2021

  • Expanded ESG (environmental, social, and governance) goals and targeted to launch 15% of real estate offerings with sponsors who meet Crowd Street's ESG criteria. Ended 2021 with 17% of Crowd Street's offerings satisfying its ESG criteria.

 

2022

  • Launched Crowd Street REIT (C-REIT) to help investors and advisors by providing access to a range of investment opportunities from multiple developers across multiple asset classes from coast to coast, with a single investment

As we celebrate this anniversary, our vision remains clear: 'We're reinventing real estate investing to help deliver better financial outcomes.' 

We're proud of the milestones we've achieved so far and are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you to our investors, sponsors, and team members (Builders) for making Crowd Street the success it is today.
