April 20, 2018

Homeownership has traditionally been the path to a secure financial future. Yet with homeownership on a historic decline, home equity is no longer achievable for many. This has diminished the middle class and led to rising inequality. The reality is that equity-driven wealth is out of touch for many. Rise is a transformative platform that provides equity access to real estate for tenants and rapid liquidity for asset owners. We are committed to the democratization of equity. Through the power of blockchain technology, we partner with real estate firms to expand equity access in the traditional market.
