AcreTrader was created with a simple mission: provide investors direct access to the highly attractive asset class of farmland investments. Farmland investments provide an opportunity for high-return potential and low volatility compared to other asset classes. Directly investing in farmland was historically difficult and unattainable for most investors. Until now. Through a proprietary online investment platform, AcreTrader offers transparency to people wanting to invest in farmland. Additionally, AcreTrader removes the headaches traditionally associated with land ownership by handling all aspects of administration and property management, from insurance and accounting to working with local farmers and improving soil sustainability. Securities are offered through AcreTrader Financial, LLC, a broker dealer registered with FINRA and a member of SIPC Information on all FINRA registered broker dealers can be found on FINRA’s BrokerCheck. Alternative investments are speculative, involve a high degree of risk and are not suitable for all investors. Complete loss of principal is possible. Private placements are unregistered securities, considered illiquid and long-term investments. Distributions are not guaranteed.
