Arrived Team

Aug 19, 2024

Arrived is designed to make residential real estate investing more accessible. On our platform, investors can choose individual properties or invest in one of our fund offerings for a simpler, instantly diversified approach. We handle day-to-day operations, so investors can focus on building their portfolios instead of managing properties.

Here’s what to expect when investing with Arrived:

It’s fast

Investing in rental properties is complex and time-consuming. It requires a significant amount of time and resources to realize return potential. Arrived’s process is radically simple. You can start investing in real estate in just four steps in a few minutes.

The Arrived Way

Invest how much you want

One of the biggest barriers to investing in real estate is the capital required to get started. For example, buying a $250,000 rental home with a conventional mortgage and 20% down could require about $58,450 upfront, including the down payment, closing costs, and reserves.


With Arrived, investors can get started with much less. You can invest in fractional real estate offerings or in funds like the Arrived Real Estate Income Fund, Seattle City Fund, or Arrived Single Family Residential Fund, starting at $100.

Diversification made easy

Diversification can help reduce risk and strengthen a portfolio over time. With Arrived, investors can spread their investment across multiple properties and markets. Funds provide broader exposure across multiple assets in a single investment.

Buy, sell, & own shares of real estate.Access monthly cash flow and appreciation potential without the work.

Significant market potential

Traditionally, real estate investors were either tethered to investment properties in their area or had to take the risk (and the hassle) of managing a rental property remotely.


But why settle? We analyze hundreds of potential markets nationwide to identify those with the most potential. From there, you can pick the investment properties and markets that align with your financial goals. Don’t want to hand-select your markets? The Arrived Single Family Residential Fund has you covered with properties spread across several markets—giving you a diversified, expert-managed portfolio with ease.

Simplified investment choices

Choosing the right real estate markets and the right investment properties isn’t easy. So, we took out the guesswork. Arrived combines real estate experience with data analysis to evaluate potential investments.


Our operational model, focused on a fusion of seasoned expertise and advanced analytics, is dedicated to maximizing returns for our investors. Here’s a look behind the curtain:

How Arrived Chooses Investment Properties

Professional property management

Managing rental properties is hard work. From vetting tenants to managing repairs to collecting rent, landlords put a lot of sweat equity into their investments. Arrived works with property management and operating partners so investors don't have to manage properties themselves.

How Arrived Evaluates Property Management Partners

State-of-the-art tenant screening

We’ve learned that a crucial part of maximizing returns is selecting residents who pay on time, stay at the property longer, and treat the home with care. We’ve developed a proprietary vetting process utilizing a combination of internal assessments and high-quality third-party tools to carefully select the right residents for our single family residential properties.

How Arrived investments are structured

Traditionally, investing in single-family residential properties required significant capital, strong credit, and the ability to take on ownership responsibilities. And once you own the property, unexpected costs and legal or operational issues can become your responsibility.


With Arrived, real estate investing is accessible to more investors. Eligible offerings are open to both accredited and non-accredited investors, and investing does not require a specific credit history.


Each Arrived individual property offering on Arrived is structured through a Series LLC, which is designed to help separate investors from liabilities tied to that property and its operations. It is a more accessible way to invest in real estate without taking on the responsibilities of direct property ownership.

Passive income

A key goal for many real estate investors is generating passive income. Many Arrived investments are designed to pay dividends monthly, though dividends are not guaranteed and may vary, be reduced, or be paused.
