MIAMI — Fundrise, a real estate crowdfunding platform, plans to raise capital for a 13,000-square-foot, mixed-use development in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District in conjunction with Atlas Real Estate Partners. The project, located at 2301 N. Miami Ave., is a recently renovated property that is 50 percent leased, with the remaining two leases out for signature, which will bring the building to full occupancy. On why Atlas Real Estate Partners decided to crowdfund a portion of the project’s funding, Arvind Chary, managing principal of Atlas Real Estate Partners, said, “We’re excited to allow retail investors to play a role in and benefit from the growth of Wynwood. Atlas prides itself on creating projects that spur community growth and the Fundrise model of crowdfunding investment, particularly for innovative projects, fits well with our mission.” Fundrise’s platform makes real estate investments available to both high net worth and small-scale investors.
