Absolute garbage management. I have no idea how my REIT investment is losing money here when literally everything else I have invested everywhere else is pulling in solid returns, especially real estate. Their staff could lose money running the proverbial cathouse. Edit June 2024: My multi-family housing investment is now almost certainly gone into thin air. I haven't been paid a dime in interest or dividends on any investment at any point, I'm completely unable to withdraw any money even at penalty, and I have lost about half of the significant principal I invested with them. This is literally a criminal enterprise, and I'll be happy when the SEC finally sends them to prison.

This recent experience with the Growth and Income REIT highlights the dangers of blindly trusting advertised "target rates." Investors deserve honest and transparent information, not misleading promises. Be wary of investment "target rates" that paint an unrealistic picture. My case in point: the Growth and Income REIT. They lured investors with promises of 11-12% returns, even though they were already well aware of the precarious economic climate. Despite facing known economic hardships like high interest rates and a slumped property market and acknowledging that they knew about this, they continued to promote 11-12% returns. When the time came to pay dividends, they conveniently blamed the economic challenges for their failure to deliver. This deliberate misinformation, even when they were aware of the negative environment, is a huge red flag. Lower returns are expected, but outright fabricating information betrays investor trust. When reality caught up, they blamed their empty promises on external factors, conveniently ignoring their own prior knowledge. This blatant disregard for transparency is inexcusable. My trust is broken, and will let others decide on their own when it comes to the level of trust for such investments. This lack of transparency raises serious concerns about their trustworthiness. No more investments for me here!

Yield Street is the worst online crowd sourcing investment platform period. I lost $$$ and they won’t even close the accounts so I can have a write off. The reason they do this is so they can claim average returns of 9%. If they included all the defaults it would be 2%. Run away from this company.

The company doesn't make explicitly clear before investing that it is EXTREMELY difficult to get your money back when you want it, and to do so one must jump through many hoops. Even then, the manager is not required to allow divestment & pay out until they've had your money for 5 years.

Stay away. Absolutely. I had success with YS in from 2019-2021 and then unfortunately invested into a group of projects at the start of 22 which clearly explained that distributions will be quarterly. I have gotten zero returns 18 months later and they claim the investments are performing. It's so shady it makes me sick to my stomach. I am a "diamond" investor with them so I have a contact and my questions are met with condescending diversion tactics. Deflecting the question and acting as if I don't understand. The dishonesty in reporting information is more than troubling. There is no way they are not aware that they are misinforming investors and yet they keep doing it. Of course investments can lose money but when the investment firm flatly invalidates their own expectations as they defined them in their own investment memorandum it's impossible to trust them in anything. I wish I had never gotten involved.

3+ investments went south. Website reporting is terrible and it's extremely difficult to get in contact with support. Clearly the diligence is suspect as well. Waiting on last investment in court for last 15+ months and not hopeful will return any of my principal.

Run, don't walk, away from this site. Had 2 investments, one of which went to 0$ after a few months and the other hasn't paid interest in over a year. I don't think these guys know anything about many of the deals that they offer.

i put in 5k and wanted to dissolve. so every 3-6 months i have to wait for them to give me some of my money back. I didn't make any money but they make it look like you did. don't use them....the worst.
