Fundrise boasts transparent and competitive fees compared to other platforms in the industry.

Fundrise investors choose an investment plan from four options: Supplemental Income, Balanced Investing, Long-Term Growth, and Venture Capital. Each plan has a goal: income through startup or venture capital investing. The assets within the plan are allocated among income and growth-focused real estate and debt assets. The venture capital plan offers a path to invest in startup companies. Within each plan, there are scores of investments from across the U.S. The debt investments finance commercial real estate projects or startup companies (in the venture capital plan).5
