GROUNDFLOOR Launches Tax Deferred Real-Estate Investing
GROUNDFLOOR, the first and only U. S. real estate lending platform open to non-accredited investors and
GROUNDFLOOR offers real estate investments with different grades that have a range of risk/reward profiles, offering returns ranging from 5% to over 20% so investors can build a diversified portfolio. In 2016 GROUNDFLOOR delivered loans with an average annualized return of 14.16%.* Compared to 2015, in 2016 loan origination volume in dollars grew by 621%, and the dollar value of principal repaid grew by 588%. Only one of the 108 loans repaid to date has returned less than 100% of the principal due back to GROUNDFLOOR'S investors.
At a time when private markets continue to deliver superior returns compared to public markets, most Americans currently saving for retirement can no longer rely solely on traditional stocks, bonds, and mutual funds for growth and yield. At the same time, many investors have been hesitant to participate in SDIRAs because of the expense, burden, and paperwork traditionally associated with the self-directed investment of tax-deferred funds.
GROUNDFLOOR and IRA Services are working together to address these issues head on: IRA Services' real-time, cloud-based, API-driven retirement investment solution for the P2P industry – the first of its kind – streamlines the once difficult process of investing tax-deferred funds in P2P marketplaces. Meanwhile, GROUNDFLOOR is the only P2P marketplace where both accredited and non-accredited investors can directly invest in private real estate projects on terms they control, rather than turning their money over to a fund.
"More and more retail investors are realizing the necessity of asset diversification and are turning to fintech platforms like GROUNDFLOOR in hopes of recouping lost yield and reducing portfolio volatility. IRA Services' ISCP™ is the first intelligent and sophisticated retirement account investing solution that allows the masses to increase their ability to diversify by enabling them to effortlessly hold next generation alternative products - like GROUNDFLOOR's "Limited Recourse Obligations" (LROs) - in tax-deferred accounts. By accommodating the retirement investing needs of all investors – regardless of their size - IRA Services is helping marketplace lending platforms access 12 times more capital," said
GROUNDFLOOR earned a historic qualification by the
"People aren't saving enough for retirement because so many intermediaries lost their trust," said
