Viva Funders
Viva Funders is an online-only crowdfunding platform that lets accredited investors buy fractional shares of U.S. real-estate debt. Minimum buy-ins start around $25k, placing the service in the mid-to-premium price tier for retail investors. All transactions—from KYC verification to funding and secondary-market resale—happen through the vivafunders.com portal.
The platform pools investor capital into short-term bridge loans originated by pre-screened private lenders, targeting 8-12% net annual yield with 6-18-month durations. A proprietary risk-scoring engine grades each loan A-C and publishes full collateral files, giving investors data usually reserved for institutional buyers. Investors can auto-diversify across multiple loans or pick individual deals, and a quarterly bulletin updates every project’s payoff status.
Typical customers are accredited individuals, family offices, and small RIAs seeking yield uncorrelated to equities without the hassle of direct property ownership. They value transparency, shorter lock-up periods, and the ability to allocate as little as $25k per deal while still receiving lender-level returns.
Viva Funders competes with real-estate REITs, syndication sites, and other debt-marketplace portals. It differentiates by focusing exclusively on first-lien bridge paper, offering quarterly liquidity windows, and providing loan-level detail rather than blind-pool exposure.

Boss Circle Investment Group
Boss Circle Investment Group is a private-equity style firm that packages and sells passive, turnkey real-estate investment products—mostly single-family and small multi-family rental portfolios in the U.S. Midwest and Sunbelt. Minimum buy-ins start around USD 50 k (mid-range) and scale to USD 1 mm+ for full building blocks; all offerings are arranged online through the company portal and closed via licensed third-party broker-dealers.
The group differentiates itself by guaranteeing a 6-8 % preferred cash yield from day-one, tenant-in-place inventory, and in-house property management that is bundled into the purchase price. Every asset is delivered “tenanted & underwritten,” with renovation, appraisal, and 12-month maintenance reserve already funded, allowing buyers to treat each purchase as a finished, income-producing product rather than a development project.
Typical clients are time-constrained professionals, overseas investors, and small-business owners who want hard-asset exposure without becoming landlords. They value predictable cash flow, U.S. dollar denomination, and the ability to scale a portfolio remotely while delegating operations.
Boss Circle competes with crowdfunding platforms, REITs, and other “turnkey” real-estate marketers; it separates from them by offering direct deed ownership (not shares), fixed preferred returns backed by corporate guarantees, and a single-source bundle that includes acquisition, rehab, and lifetime management under one roof.

bentallgreenoak
BentallGreenOak is an investment-management platform focused on commercial real estate; it does not sell consumer goods. The firm offers institutional and high-net-worth clients access to core, value-add and development equity strategies across office, industrial, retail, multi-family and logistics assets in North America and Europe. Deal sizes typically run from USD 50 million to multi-billion-dollar portfolios, placing the firm in the premium segment; capital is raised through private placements and separately-managed accounts rather than public retail channels.
What distinguishes BentallGreenOak is the integration of an in-house operating company with a global investment manager, giving it end-to-end control of acquisitions, leasing, development, ESG retrofits and dispositions. The firm’s research-driven, city-by-city approach targets supply-constrained sub-markets with strong demographic tailwinds, and it is known for large-scale urban office and logistics complexes that carry its signature sustainability certifications. Its open-ended core fund series and dedicated logistics vehicles have delivered top-quartile net IRRs since inception.
Clients are pension funds, sovereign-wealth funds, insurance companies and family offices seeking long-dated, inflation-protected real-asset exposure with professional governance. They value the firm’s institutional-grade reporting, low-leverage philosophy and track record of executing complex repositioning projects that modernize assets to meet evolving tenant and regulatory demands.
BentallGreenOak competes with other vertically-integrated global real-estate managers that combine discretionary funds with operating capabilities. It differentiates through deeper local leasing benches in each target market, a proprietary data stack that underwrites micro-location fundamentals, and a commitment to net-zero-carbon roadmaps that pre-empt future capital-expenditure shocks for investors.

Elite Equity
Elite Equity is a private-equity and venture-capital firm, not a product retailer; it sells investment management services, minority or majority equity stakes in growth-stage companies, and co-investment opportunities. Minimum commitments typically start in the low-seven-figure USD range, placing the firm firmly in the premium segment. All fundraising, deal sourcing, and investor reporting are handled through a secure online portal supplemented by private roadshows—there is no public storefront.
The group is notable for its “operator-investor” model: every deal is led by former founders or C-suite executives who take board seats and provide playbooks on commercialization, supply-chain scaling, and international expansion. Their best-known exits cluster in SaaS, fintech, and specialty consumer brands, where they target 3-7× MOIC within five to six years. A strict 12-company cap per fund keeps portfolios concentrated and hands-on.
Target customers are high-net-worth individuals, single-family offices, and fund-of-funds seeking mid-market exposure without the governance drag of mega-fund investing. Clients value the direct access to deal captains, quarterly immersion days at portfolio companies, and the ability to co-invest on a deal-by-deal basis, aligning with lifestyles that prize transparency, entrepreneurial networks, and alpha generation over traditional asset allocation.
Elite Equity competes with both large-cap PE houses that have scale but less flexibility and smaller angel syndicates that lack institutional infrastructure. It differentiates by combining check sizes of USD 10–50 million with senior operating partners who have scaled unicorns, thereby bridging the strategy gap between growth-stage VCs and traditional buyout funds while offering limited partners lower fees and pro-rata participation rights.

Ark7
Ark7 is an online-only platform that sells fractional shares of rental properties priced from $20–$250 per share; full homes on the marketplace range from ~$200k to $1.5M. Product categories are single-family rentals in growth Sunbelt markets, with shares offered in $100k–$1M buildings; the service sits between budget REITs and premium direct ownership.
The brand lets investors buy as little as one share and collect quarterly dividends while Ark7 handles acquisition, leasing, and maintenance; each property is SEC-qualified and traded on Ark7’s secondary market with no lock-up. Notable launches include the 2019 “Tesla House” in Reno and the 2022 Austin duplex—both sold out in under 48 hours.
Target users are 25-45-year-old tech-savvy professionals who want passive real-estate exposure without down payments or landlord duties; they value transparency, low minimums, and mobile-first portfolio tracking. ESG-minded buyers are drawn to ESG-screened properties and the ability to diversify across multiple cities with a few hundred dollars.
Ark7 competes with low-cost REIT ETFs, crowdfunding sites, and short-term rental syndicates by offering direct deed ownership, per-property financials, and a liquid secondary market; zero property-management responsibility and instant diversification differentiate it from traditional sole-ownership landlords.

Landa
Landa is a fintech-meets-real-estate platform that offers fractional shares of U.S. single-family rental homes; users buy $5-and-up “shares” in LLCs that each hold one property and collect quarterly dividends from rent. The app lists dozens of pre-vetted homes across the Southeast and Midwest, with entry investments starting under $50 and no upper cap, positioning the service as a low-fee, mid-range alternative to direct ownership. All transactions, property browsing, and portfolio tracking happen inside the iOS/Android app and web dashboard—no physical storefronts or traditional broker involvement.
The brand’s core innovation is turning physical houses into tradeable micro-shares; holdings settle in real time on Landa’s ATS (alternative trading system), giving investors stock-like liquidity in an asset that normally takes months to sell. Each property carries its own SEC-qualified offering circular, automated rent collection, and built-in property management, eliminating landlord duties while still passing through depreciation and appreciation. This structure has made early listings such as the “Atlanta 3-bed” and “Tampa duplex” collections sell out within hours and trade at premiums on the secondary market.
Typical users are 25-45-year-old tech-savvy professionals who want passive real-estate exposure without six-figure down-payments or DIY maintenance. They value transparency—monthly rent rolls, expense ledgers, and occupancy rates update live—and favor the flexibility to invest $100 today and cash out tomorrow rather than locking capital for decades.
Landa competes with REIT ETFs, crowdfunding portals, and tokenized real-estate start-ups by offering property-level granularity and intraday liquidity instead of pooled funds or lock-ups. Its 1 % annual management fee plus $0 trade commissions undercut private syndicates, while the secondary marketplace differentiates it from buy-and-hold crowdfunding models, positioning Landa as the Robinhood of rental homes.

Worldwide Capitol Investments Group
Worldwide Capitol Investments Group packages high-yield private credit, real-estate bridge loans, and diversified alternative-asset funds into turnkey investment notes starting at USD 25k and scaling to eight-figure institutional tranches; all onboarding, subscription, and portfolio reporting are handled through the firm’s secure online portal with optional white-label dashboards for broker-dealers.
The group’s edge is its hybrid structure: a U.S.-regulated investment adviser paired with an offshore special-purpose vehicle network that can deliver weekly liquidity on assets traditionally locked for 12-36 months, while still targeting 8-14 % net IRR; flagship “WCI Income Note” has paid uninterrupted monthly distributions since 2016 and is now distributed in 18 currencies.
Typical clients are accredited individuals, family offices, and small pension funds seeking yield outside public markets without the 2/20 hedge-fund fee stack; they value capital preservation, monthly cash flow, and the ability to ladder maturities themselves rather than accept fund-level gates.
Competitors include boutique credit funds, real-estate crowdfunding platforms, and structured-note desks at private banks; WCI differentiates by combining institutional-grade collateral underwriting with retail-access minimums, offering same-day redemptions through an internal secondary market while maintaining a zero-default loss record since inception.
