    First Independent Trust Layer for Private Real Estate Turns Investor Feedback into a Permanent Public Credibility Record

    PORTLAND, Maine – November 12, 2025 – Invest Clearly, a firm focused on injecting transparency into private real‑estate investing, today unveiled its platform, the first verified review system that records investor opinions as a lasting public credibility source between limited partners (LPs) and general partners (GPs). Private markets have long suffered from a lack of the transparency that public markets offer. As alternative‑investment allocations rise, investors demand greater accountability while sponsors strive to differentiate themselves in a crowded capital arena. Invest Clearly fills this void by offering a trusted, independent venue where verified investors can rate sponsors, consolidating scattered feedback into a single, reliable credibility metric. The outcome is a more informed private‑market landscape, empowering investors to make smarter choices and enabling reputable sponsors to distinguish themselves.

    “The goal of Invest Clearly is to create a safer private‑investment ecosystem,” said Pat Zingarella, CEO. “We believe that transparency derived from genuine investor insight—not sponsor marketing—will shape the next wave of capital allocation.”

    Investor Verification Fuels Market Transparency

    Each review on Invest Clearly originates from a verified investor who has supplied proof of participation in a sponsor’s offering. The verification process guarantees that published comments come from legitimate investors, giving confidence to peers while protecting sponsors. In addition to sponsor reviews, users can browse current and past deals, examine sponsor profiles, and access unbiased educational resources. Invest Clearly tackles the private‑investment puzzle from multiple angles, enhancing access, comprehension, and decision‑making for investors.

    Since its launch, the platform has shown steady early growth, amassing nearly 400 reviews and 20,000 monthly page views. More than 150 GP profiles have already been claimed, reflecting strong sponsor engagement and the market’s appetite for greater transparency. Investors are already weaving Invest Clearly reviews into their due‑diligence process, reshaping how they evaluate private‑real‑estate opportunities.

    “I won’t make another real‑estate investment without first checking Invest Clearly,” said Ron Moore, president of Hogland Properties. “It’s like what TripAdvisor was for travel 15–20 years ago, but for real‑estate investors.”
