Better returns than other conservative investments
One word: returns. Returns on rental houses and the Real Estate Income Fund are comparable to or better than CDs or bonds while the minimum investment is much lower. Since these are securities, returns work a little differently. Interest on bank accounts, CDs, bonds, etc., are prorated for how many days held out of the month. Returns from Arrived investments come after the end of the delay period (up to 3 months) and act more like dividends paid after the ex-date. Plus fees for early termination if you need the money before 3 years. It would be more user friendly if the system was more liquid, but the holding periods keep the values stable.
