This framework allows them to advertise their offering and raise money from non-accredited investors, but it places limits on how much a non-accredited investor can invest.Most real estate syndicates use the Reg D exemptions, either rule 506(b) or 506(c).506(c) allows the issuer to advertise, but does not allow them to raise money from non-accredited investors under any circumstances.506(b) allows the issuer to raise money from up to 35 non-accredited investors, and there are no limits on how much the non-accredited investors can invest.
