The Federal Reserve's decision to cut interest rates in September sparked a 79% month-over-month surge in interest in Arrived's equity investment products. This uptick reflects growing investor sentiment that real estate equity investments are poised for significant growth. As the Fed signals economic stimulus, investors are seeking alternative opportunities, and real estate has emerged as an attractive option due to its potential for long-term returns and diversification benefits.

    Don't Miss: Arrived Home's Private Credit Fund offers a historically annualized dividend yield of 8.1%*, providing access to short-term loans backed by residential real estate with just a $100 minimum investment. Equity investments offer opportunities for capital appreciation and profit participation, but often come with higher risk and volatility than debt instruments.

    Key points include:

    * Ownership stake: Equity investors gain ownership in a company or asset through share purchases.

    * Capital appreciation: Investors aim to increase the value of their shares over time for potential profit.

    * Dividends: Certain equity investments may pay dividends, distributing company profits to shareholders.

    * Voting rights: Equity investors often have voting rights, allowing participation in key decisions.

    However, equity investments carry greater risk and price volatility than debt instruments. Share values can fluctuate due to market conditions, economic factors, and company performance. Arrived's equity products offer investors fractional shares of income-generating properties, such as rental homes and commercial real estate. The Fed's interest rate cuts aim to stimulate economic activity, positively impacting property values and rental income. Lower borrowing costs make it more affordable to acquire properties, increasing demand for rental properties and higher rental income.
