Invest in Real Estate Crowdfunding - Retire by 40 (2024)

2024 Real estate crowdfunding income: $821

Real estate crowdfunding is a new way to invest in real estate. I started investing in real estate crowdfunding in 2017 because I didn’t want to be a landlord anymore. My goal is to increase our investment to $200,000 by 2025. This should generate around $10,000 of passive income per year.

Unfortunately, real estate investors have taken a hit since the pandemic began. For now, I’ve put a hold on investing more with real estate crowdfunding. Apartments are still solid investments, but other commercial real estate properties are risky.

You can see all of our passive income on the Passive Income page. I will update these passive income pages quarterly.
