AcreTrader was created with a simple mission: provide investors direct access to the highly attractive asset class of farmland. Farmland is a high-return, low volatility asset class, with historical returns beating most major asset classes and other forms of real estate. Unfortunately, buying and maintaining farmland directly is extremely difficult. The few investment options that are available charge extremely high fees, provide almost no liquidity, and offer little or no choice over portfolio composition. In short, there has not been an easy, affordable way for most investors to participate. Until now. Through a proprietary online investment platform that uses some aspects of crowdfunding, AcreTrader offers transparency, security, and liquidity to people wanting to invest in farmland. Additionally, AcreTrader removes the headaches traditionally associated with land ownership by handling all aspects of administration and property management, from insurance and accounting to working with local farmers and improving soil sustainability. Now investors can access this highly attractive asset class and earn passive income, starting in just minutes online.
