We have recently sent out several media pieces that talk about ‘alternatives’ in the market.
Some included names such as SoFi and Morgan Stanley, which are adding alternative investments to their platforms. Charles Schwab just announced that it is making iCapital its exclusive partner to offer alternative investments to its client base.
So, what’s the big deal with alternative investments?
Firstly, if you are not sure what an ‘alternative investment’ is, have a look at this article.
Generally speaking, alternative investments such as commodities, collectibles, and real estate are considered options for balancing an investment portfolio outside your typical stocks, bonds, and mutual funds.
Historically, access to alternatives has been difficult for the typical retail investor. Over the last few years, however, we have seen an explosion of platforms that open the door to these types of assets, Crypto being a very obvious one.
In CalTier’s case, we focus on what we consider ‘hard to reach’ commercial real estate, such as apartment buildings.
We are building a platform that offers retail investors varying options to invest in alternatives with low minimums to provide access to everyday investors. This includes real estate Assets Under Management (AUM), technology, compliance, growing an investor community, and investment funds.
Our strategy has always been to include YOU in our growth. This is why we have opened the doors to investing in our parent company. We have raised over $2.3 million from our community across several rounds. You can invest in our current Reg A offering from $189. There are bonus shares for larger amounts.
