Property, one of the biggest and most trusted asset classes, offers investors a wide range of options, each offering something a little different, crowdfunding and real estate investment trusts (Reits) are two options.
As the golden rule of investing is to do your homework first, here are some of the benefits and downsides to crowdfunding and Reits to help investors make more informed decisions.
What is crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding involves a group of people joining forces to fund a project or venture together; it is also a form of crowdsourcing. It usually takes place online and each venture involves three groups – the project initiator, who comes up with the project; the individuals or groups that support the idea; and a moderating organisation that brings the parties together to launch the idea.
What are Reits?
Reits are specialised mutual funds focused on property and traded on stock exchanges, including the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). The investors do not own any of the actual property, but rather a share of the total fund that owns the property.
How crowdfunding and Reits compare:
There are many ways to invest in property, but whichever one you choose, begin with good quality research and partners you can trust with your hard-earned money.
