About Groundfloor

Since its launch in 2013, participants in Groundfloor’s real estate loans have earned annualized returns averaging 10 to 12 percent in a 6 to 12-month timeframe. No prior real estate knowledge is needed, and the $10 minimum is intentionally a low barrier to entry to give everyone the ability to build wealth in real estate. To date, Groundfloor remains the only platform offering direct participation in individual real estate investments to all on a broad scale, regardless of income or net worth.

The company is headquartered in Atlanta and has raised more than $30 million in capital from a variety of sources, including venture capital and online public equity offerings. As of its most recent round of financing, the company has over 7,700 public shareholders and is 30 percent customer-owned.
