The good news? Technology has made smart investing easier than at any point in modern history.

The bad? From crypto to micro-investing to robo advisors, it’s hard to know where to begin.

So why not start with the sector that’s been consistently gaining value since the dawn of man: real estate.

Enter Fundrise, the first-of-its-kind online platform that offers a low-cost, user-friendly way to invest in private real estate, an asset with historically exceptional and consistent returns.

No matter your experience, Fundrise has a plan for you. Plans that, impressively, have 8-11% expected annual returns. That’s not a product of the assets, per se, but of Fundrise’s investing acumen.

Consider the many ways to invest in real estate: rental properties, publicly traded REITs, speculative purchases on the advice of your allegedly savvy brother-in-law, etc. Then consider that most of these methods have gone largely unchanged for decades.

With Fundrise, you get real innovation: they’ve redesigned the traditional private-equity model entirely, implementing an online-only, no-middlemen approach that results in no more than 1% annual advisory and asset management fees.

Good luck finding that with your brother-in-law’s guy.

And to show you they mean business, they’re even waiving advisory fees for three months for our readers, on top of their 90-day satisfaction period.
