Lofty

A real estate day trader on Lofty made a 50% return in 56 days 📈 With Lofty, real estate day trading is now possible. Most people think of real estate as something you buy and hold for years. And usually, that’s true. But on Lofty, investors can buy and sell shares of individual properties. Not funds. Not REITs. Real homes. Here’s one recent completed example: A Lofty investor bought shares in 6601 E Hearn Rd, a short-term rental in Scottsdale, Arizona. They invested about $5.2K. They exited 56 days later. After fees and rental income, they received about $7.8K. That’s roughly $2.6K in profit, or a 50.8% total return on capital deployed. This was not a model, projection, or backtest. It was a completed transaction on the Lofty marketplace. The bigger story is what it shows: Real estate can now be more liquid, more accessible, and more active than traditional property ownership. Investors can enter and exit positions in days or weeks, earn rental income while holding, and manage exposure across individual properties. This is the future of real estate investing: Real properties. Real liquidity. Income while you hold. That’s what Lofty is building. Link to the case study in the thread 👇

A duplex on Lofty just sold! 440 Louden Ave cleared at $69.91/share, giving investors a 39.82% gain in 25 months. But the return isn’t the only interesting part. Investors bought $50 shares of one specific duplex, fully occupied and half a mile from the ocean in Dunedin, FL. The original owner stayed on as property manager after selling part of his equity to investors. He didn’t want to sell the whole property or refinance, so Lofty gave him another option. Investors earned daily rent distributions. Over the hold, $45,348 went out to investors. Then investors voted to sell. The property closed. Everyone got their share. Buy. Earn. Vote. Exit. One property. One real transaction. Full loop complete. That’s what a real estate exchange looks like.

This is more proof that the world's first real estate exchange is no longer just an idea; it has a track record.

✔️ Owners unlock liquidity from their own real estate on their terms. ✔️ Investors buy direct ownership in individual homes, not a fund or a REIT. ✔️ Everyone tracks performance, collects rent, votes on decisions, and exits when the property sells.

❌ buying a rental property the old way: → 60 days → $40k down → find a property manager → no liquidity → a tenant calling at 11pm about a toilet ✅ buying a piece of one on Lofty: → 15 seconds → $50 → rent paid daily → instant liquidity → no calls choose your fighter.

At @lofty_ai, we usually start testing new ideas using a manual process. It helps us move quickly and figure out if an idea actually resonates with users or not. Sometimes they do, but because of other priorities, we end up operating that manual process for far longer than we'd like. Introducing our new off-ramp and withdrawal flow. Users can now click 2 buttons and complete withdrawals for their rent balance or account balance to their connected bank accounts. There is also built in tracking to tell you the status of your withdrawals. Standard off-ramps are also free now (3-5 business days) through ACH while the express option (1 business day) costs 2%, down to 1% if withdrawing above $10,000. This has been a big bottle neck for the platform as users had to fill out a form manually and learn how to operate a crypto wallet to send funds to us manually. According to our support metrics, 75% of all customer support requests were regarding how to perform this step properly or getting an update on the status of their withdrawal. No more! Enjoy the new flow and happy trading!

Most people don't know you can own rental properties for $50. I own 28 properties on @Lofty_ai and earn rent daily. Here's $100 to try it: lofty.ai/refer?utm_sour…

A property on Lofty just sold, delivering a 36% return including rental income and after all closing costs. But the return isn't what excites us the most. It's how the sale actually happened. 3106 Quiet Lane in St. Louis was a cash-flowing rental property, owned by more than 100 investors and acquired at the peak of the market in early 2022. One of them decided it was time to sell. They took a step many real estate investors never get to take: They created a governance proposal. The other owners discussed it, voted on it, and it passed with over 60% approval. After that, the owners worked directly with the property's agent, made repairs before closing, found a buyer, and completed the sale. Shares went from $50 to about $68, including the rental income paid out along the way. That's co-ownership actually working. Not a fund manager making decisions behind closed doors. Not passive investors waiting around without any say. Real owners, focused on the same asset, using governance and open discussion to decide what's best for the property. Lofty is the first platform to make this possible at scale: ✅ Direct property ownership ✅ Investor governance ✅ Property-specific chat rooms ✅ Daily rent payouts ✅ A live marketplace to buy and sell shares This is what the future of real estate ownership looks like.

Adding @lofty_ai to the RWA section alone should move the needle in that category a bit :)

Another land parcel on the Lofty marketplace in Pigeon Forge, TN just delivered investors a 24.5% realized return in only 10.5 months! 🌄 💸 Dustin, a third-party seller, listed a land parcel on the Lofty marketplace to sell equity to investors.

Investors walked away with an 24.5% total return over the 10.5-month hold.
