There’s little argument that commercial real estate is a great asset class to add to an investment portfolio. It provides strong potential returns and has little correlation with the stock market, making it a smart way to hedge against inflation and economic downturn. The main problem investors face when it comes to investing in commercial real estate is the amount of capital that’s typically required to participate in this asset class. The down payment required to purchase a property can be in the millions of dollars, and most real estate funds have minimum investments of $100,000, or more.
