real estate syndication 1 million + raise

[Robert Ellis]

Has anyone here successfully raised over $1M in equity for a real estate deal using an online platform? If so, which one, and what was your experience? I’m evaluating:

1️⃣ Fundrise – Open to all investors, $1B+ deployed, low fees, good for smaller raises.
2️⃣ CrowdStreet – $3B+ raised, focuses on large commercial deals, accredited investors only.
3️⃣ RealtyMogul – $500M+ raised, REITs & individual deals, open to non-accredited investors.
4️⃣ EquityMultiple – $300M+ raised, high returns, accredited investors only, mix of equity & debt.
5️⃣ Yieldstreet – $1B+ raised, alternative assets beyond real estate, typically $10K+ minimum.

Would love to hear from anyone who has successfully raised capital on these or other platforms!"

You are choosing between control and marketing. 

If you spend the time to properly market yourself, you may be able to raise the money, assuming you do it well.  If you abdicate the marketing to one of these platforms, you may be able to raise the money but have much less control over who invests. 

You may say "Who cares? I just need the cash.", but a rogue investor can suck up a lot of time. I've seen some of my friends waste countless hours trying to answer the unending questions of a lunatic passive investor.
