Know the rules

Most experts urge investors to consider real estate crowdfunding to be a long-term investment, since real estate holdings and debt are not as liquid as stocks, bonds or mutual funds. Equity real estate investments are considered long-term holdings, while debt investments may produce returns more quickly, but pay less in the long run.

Watch for risk

For example, there is the chance a property in an equity renovation or construction investment will cost more than expected to complete, or won't sell for the projected price. Borrowers in debt investments may default. Check the rules to see how quickly you could get your money out if, for example, the fund fails to raise the targeted sum.

This is a new industry and sure to experience growing pains, so don't bet the farm. Firms new to this industry may not have enough investor funds to diversify their holdings very widely, so you could end up with too many eggs in one basket.
