We started this work investing in companies that had product headaches. Then, we hired development firms that didnt get it done. Of course we fixed problems that developers caused, then thought it was normal. Decided we should build community and talk deals

For almost a century, regulatory barriers made it difficult for individuals to invest in private markets, giving billion-dollar institutions preferred access. The result has been that most investors have been limited to public markets and excluded from private investments—ranging from real estate to venture capital. Technology is finally disrupting this status quo. Enter: Fundrise, America’s largest direct-to-consumer private markets manager. We built our technology platform to bridge the barrier. Software allows us to achieve the scale of institutions without the bureaucracy. Combining our technology and investment expertise, we are pioneering a new model to build you a better portfolio.
