Overview
RealtyMogul is a clearinghouse for commercial real estate investments offered by multiple real estate companies. The RealtyMogul website currently displays seven offers, with details for each project available after creating a login and password. The number of individual project offers varies, while the REITs are always accessible. Accredited investors can invest in private placement offerings, while both accredited and non-accredited investors can access two RealtyMogul real estate investment trusts (REITs).
All project and REIT information is available online, although users need to navigate through several pages to get comprehensive details on each offer. The description pages of individual offers are dense, which is suitable for those seeking in-depth particulars of the projects. Investors should take note of the lock-up period for REIT investments. The REITs are eligible for share repurchase after 12 months, but investors will only receive the full redemption value if the fund is held for a minimum of three years.
Founded in 2012, RealtyMogul is headquartered in Los Angeles, California, and serves over 280,000 members.
