Fundrise has a multi-step application and underwriting process that all investments must go through to be considered and approved that includes:
Screening potential investments to make sure they are top-performing companies with a record of success. Fundrise claims that only a quarter of the companies that apply make it past this step.
Companies must understand their project due diligence, which requires investors are paid back before the company realizes profits.
Fundrise has a 350 data point analysis protocol during their underwriting process to ensure the projects they offer investors will be quality investments.
Fundrise actually pre-funds the investment before their investors do. This means they are taking on the risk before you do.
