Fundrise or RealtyShares?

Hey BP Nation!

I just closed on my second rental property 2 weeks ago and am now looking to save for my next investment.

I have $5,000 I’m willing to take a little risk with and have heard good things about Fundrise and RealtyShares. 

Does anyone have experience using either platform? The good? The bad? The great? The sucky?

Would love to hear your feedback and comments!

-Tyler

Tyler Jahnke I would buy a partial performing note that way you know where your $ is going and you get instant cash flow.

@Tyler Jahnke I agree with Chris that a partial may be a good choice for you but make sure you keep enough in reserve to cover any vacant and/or sudden repairs that come up.

@Rami Aweti  Reach out to not investors, most will have something they are willing to sell.
