On to a Bergfürst investment

We now have a few different platforms to present, so we should get right to it with Bergfürst. Bergfürst strengths Without such a large project pipeline as others, we still haven’t seen this FinTech run out of open projects ready to receive investment; Projects have so far been in varied geographical locations in at least three countries, avoiding single-market risks; …

Exporo – next investment

Let’s explore our next investment – the real estate crowd platform Exporo. Described below our positive impression of this FinTech, no less because of how much we learned about them. Meeting the FinTech in an event DS joined a fair called Düsseldorf Anlegertag in March, where Exporo hosted a stand. That event is a chance for investors to know more …

EstateGuru – next investment

Time to describe our following investment, through the FinTech EstateGuru! After a hesitant start with this platform, we are liking it more over time. Even with a similar business model to other companies, and a relatively limited website in a first glance, this company offers good returns for real-estate based projects in multiple countries. We started with a small invested …

Swaper – next investment

We have recently done some new investments and it’s time we introduce them, starting with Swaper! This FinTech platform has a special component, making it different from previous investments.

Reinvest24 – next investment

While we consider whether or not to strategically change the allocation of our investments, given that we are currently not the size we initially were, we continue our journey with a typical real estate fintech investment through the platform Reinvest24. This Estonian company is still in early stages with less than 10 projects to be found on their website, but …

Crowdestate – next investment

Shortly after we introduced another platform, let us present the latest FinTech investment we’re testing: Crowdestate with a focus on real estate. While we already have at least one such investment in our portfolio (described here), this platform really delivers something different. Crowdestate has an apparently efficient secondary market that provides liquidity to investors throughout the project cycle. Usually the …

PeerBerry – next investment

We finally get to the final post of the year, and what a year 2018 has been! At the end of 2017, this blog and DS were only having baby steps. Although our ambitions are for much higher flights, there were a few accomplishments that we should be proud of, and some self-imposed challenges going forward. Before that, however, let …

IUVO – next investment

Before the year ends, we still wanted to make some last investment posts, and this one is about the platform IUVO. Strangely enough I found this platform through Facebook, which as mentioned previously is not something I usually like to admit. In my opinion, the best online platforms to act as intermediaries are specialized one way or another, but in …

Ecoligo – new investment

Our last post treated the intermediaries who got us a few new investment opportunities. We now move our focus to the investment opportunity itself, and this is a particularly exotic addition to our portfolio, obtained through Ecoligo Investments. The platform focuses on sustainable investments in developing countries, some of the recent ones in Latin America and in Africa. Generally projects …
