The webinar was informative


The webinar was informative, and the speakers provided good information about the status of the industry. I hope that the new leaders are better at reviewing potential projects. After investing in almost 30 different projects with CrowdStreet, I don’t have one that has exceeded expectations.

I lost 100% of my investment in one…

I lost 100% of my investment in one deal and am on the verge of losing my equity in two other deals. It feels like they were more concerned with generating income for their platform fees as opposed to bringing in sustainable deals. I know interest rates impacted these deals, but on each sales call, the rise of interest rates was discussed.

Reply from Crowd Street

We’re very sorry to hear about the challenges you’ve experienced with your investments. Losing capital is difficult, and we understand the frustration and disappointment this brings.

Each sponsor and offering undergoes a review process before being listed, but all private real estate investments carry substantial risk, including market conditions like rising interest rates that have significantly impacted commercial real estate in recent years. Unfortunately, not all projects achieve their business plans.

That said, your concern about sustainable deal flow and communication is important to us. We continually review our processes to strengthen both our upfront screening and our post-investment reporting standards so investors have as much transparency as possible.

We’d like the opportunity to learn more about your experience and address your concerns directly. Please reach out to our Member Services team at ir@crowdstreet.com.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, it helps us improve.

Sincerely,
The Crowd Street Team

Will never invest on this platform again

While I had one investment with a fund go well, another for a development project looks like I may loose all of my capital. Crowdstreet has done nothing, not even any communications, while this project has been going south. I question their original vetting of both the sponsor and the offering, and any proactive post-investment communications with all of the challenges have been non-existent. (I do take responsibility of taking the risk in doing a private deal and not doing more due diligence outside of the platform.) I will NOT invest on this platform ever again and would warn others to be very careful. The platform/company is involved in at least a couple of significant lawsuits, so would check those out before you move ahead with them.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear about your concerns regarding this investment and the challenges you’ve faced. We understand how difficult it can be when a project does not perform as expected, and we take investor feedback very seriously.

To clarify, Crowd Street is a platform that connects investors with sponsors and their offerings. While every sponsor and offering undergoes a review process before being listed, all private real estate investments carry substantial risk, and unfortunately, not all projects achieve their original business plans. That said, we recognize the importance of transparency and timely communication when challenges arise.

We’d like the opportunity to look more closely at your specific experience and ensure your concerns are addressed directly. Please reach out to our Member Services team at ir@crowdstreet.com so we can connect with you.

We remain committed to continuously improving our platform, our processes, and the overall investor experience. Your feedback helps us in that effort.

I do not like K1 investments

I do not like K1 investments. The tax reports are never on time. So far I am losing money.

Reply from Crowd Street

We appreciate you sharing your feedback. We understand that Schedule K-1 tax documents can sometimes be delayed, as they are prepared by the individual investment sponsors after year-end financials are finalized. Unfortunately, this timing is common in private real estate investing and not unique to Crowd Street, but we recognize the frustration it can cause.

Regarding your investment performance, private real estate projects can take years before results are realized, and performance can vary over time. We encourage you to review the latest project status reports in your account and reach out to our Member Services team if you’d like to discuss your specific investments in more detail.

If you’d like to connect, please email us at ir@crowdstreet.com so we can assist further.

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. Losing money on any investment is incredibly difficult, and we understand the frustration and disappointment it brings.

Crowd Street provides access to private real estate investment opportunities, and with that access comes risk—including the potential total loss of capital. While we review every sponsor and offering before listing them on our platform, it's important to remember that each investment carries its own set of risks. Litigation and loss events are taken seriously and are reviewed by our team to assess what improvements can be made moving forward.

If you’re open to it, we’d appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly to better understand your situation and discuss how we can support you. Please reach out to us at ir@crowdstreet.com.

Don't do it!!!

Don't do it!!!

Over 3 years I have invested in 10 different offers presented by CrowdStreet. All of them value add being the most conservative and all having cash flow to support a return on the investment from day 1. Of the ten, 2 have gone bust, the other 8 have not lived up to the initial offering.

Not worth the risk. I will be lucky to get most of my investment back.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand how disappointing it can be when investments don’t meet expectations, especially in a changing market environment. Over the past few years, the macroeconomic landscape has shifted significantly, impacting many sectors of commercial real estate—including value-add strategies that rely on both operational improvements and favorable capital markets.

While private CRE investing can offer potential rewards, it also comes with inherent risks, especially when leverage is involved. We’re always here to talk through those risks and how the current macroenvironment is influencing performance across the marketplace.

If you have specific questions or would like to speak with our team about your investments or broader market trends, we encourage you to reach out to us directly at ir@crowdstreet.com. We're committed to transparency and continuously working to support our members through both strong and challenging cycles.

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating and disappointing it is to lose an investment, and we never take that lightly. Commercial real estate investing carries inherent risks, including the possibility of complete loss of capital.

At CrowdStreet, transparency is a core value. We provide investors with in-depth materials, including sponsor background information, financial models, business plans, and risk disclosures, so they can evaluate each opportunity and make informed decisions that align with their risk tolerance. Additionally, we offer educational resources to help members understand the nuances of CRE investing. We appreciate you sharing your experience and wish you the best in your investing journey.

On-boarding was very difficult

This was my first experience with CrowdStreet, and the on-boarding did not go smoothly. They'd email me a doc, I'd sign it, and I'd get a reply that they'd take one to two days to approve it, and get to the next step. The investment deadline was approaching, and every step was taking one to two days. When I'd call the rep, the call would go straight to voicemail without return calls. Etc. Etc. Etc. Things finally got worked out, but it was more than a chore to get through the system , and what should have been a couple days was a couple weeks. I'll see how the process proceeds, but the on-boarding did not go smoothly. Hopefully now that everything is with the sponsor, things will go more smoothly.

My entrance to commerical real estate investment

Crowd funding was the easiest way for me to start investing in commercial real estate. I've been doing it now thru a really good commercial real estate market and a tough market. I find CrowdStreet to be genuinely looking out to help their clients be successful. Their website account portal is excellent in helping me keep track of my investments and information. Their support staff has always been quick to respond and helpful in addressing what I have needed.

CrowdStreet Networking event

Ability to network with fellow investors as well as gain insight into Crowdstreets thoughts on the economy with the incoming administration.

Having Knightvest Capital attend and speak was also a nice touch. I would highly recommend continuing to bring in sponsors to future meetings.

Does Crowdstreet have a clear vision?

I originally connected with Crowdstreet as a way to participate in Real Estate investments. I have largely held off investing because the early funds have not turned out to be managed as they were advertised, and as Crowdstreet grew rapidly, I became uneasy with the vetting process which Crowdsteet said was very tough and thorough. I think the pressure to bring deals to the table proved in numerous cases that this wasn't the case. I didn't really hear a "repentance" type of acknowledgement of this, especially while I am living with the consequences of these issues. What I heard is that Crowdstreet now has a rigorous vetting process. Well that is what I heard 5 years ago too. Also, I don't know that I fully understand or agree with Crowdstreet broadening out into other areas such as private debt, etc. There are plenty of full service investment advisory companies already. It appears that Crowdstreet now wants to become one too. It seems to me that Crowdstreet is wandering away from its original vision.
