Why do I need to create an account before I can access listings in your marketplace?
We are subject to a legal obligation to determine whether persons who are interested in the issuer’s offerings are qualified to participate in them. When you create an account on our platform, we assess as part of our regulatory duties whether or not you are qualified to invest and whether the investment is suitable for you.
What are these assessment questions for?
Under our existing securities laws, we have a regulatory obligation to complete a know-your-client (“KYC”) assessment on every investor. This is required before any potential investor can fully view investment opportunities on our marketplace and before we can accept any proposed investment. The reasons are twofold. First, we have a duty to assess your financial condition and ensure the product in which you decide to invest is suitable for you. Second, our regulatory authorities require it in connection with Canada’s anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing and securities rules and laws.
Who is eligible to invest with you?
- You must be a Canadian citizen and/or resident.
- You must be 18 years of age to invest.
- You must reside in certain provinces depending on certain products.
- Your Investor Type (required by regulatory bodies) determines how much you can invest annually.
- Accredited: No Investment Limit
- Eligible: Invest up to $30,000/year
- Ineligible: Invest up to $10,000/year
How do you source what’s in your marketplace?
We bring institutional quality investments sourced from best-in-class operating issuers and sponsors which have a successful track record. They are not hobbyists, but rather invariably real estate professionals of long standing.
- District REIT
- Nest Capital
- Centurion Apartment Real Estate Investment
- Mansouri Living
- Manzil
- Terra Firma
- Sud Group
Every offering posted on the marketplace is vetted through an multi-point checklist and approved by a credit committee with over $5 billion in combined transaction experience and decades of real estate underwriting experience.
Our review process includes:
- Real estate sponsor/issuer review (current balance sheet, proven track record of local geography, and expertise)
- Financial review of the project, detailing cost analysis and revenue/leasing projections
- Zoning potential review
- Demographic, economic, and market trends review
- Comparable precedent projects review
- Third-party peer reviews of environmental and other reports
What are your fees?
For Fundscraper Property Trust offerings, the only fee that impacts the investor is a fee that ranges between 0.5-2%.
All other fees (origination fees, renewal fees, and redemption fees) are taken care of by Fundscraper, all as more particularly described in our Offering Memorandum.
How is Fundscraper different?
Low Minimums
