The business plan outlines a goal of reaching over 100,000 subscribers, positioning the company for a valuation between $800 million to $1.5 billion.

Business Plan

Our primary growth plan on the technology side includes adding 35 new features, a mobile app, integrations with 10’s of other real estate CRMs, and expansion of data into smaller markets. On the marketing side, our plan includes capitalizing on the 28 marketing and affiliate opportunities we secured at the Limitless Conference in Phoenix, affiliating with real estate industry leaders like David Green and Joe Fairless, and partnering with real estate coaching groups around the U.S. to expand outreach (which we’re already working on). BrightInvestor revolutionizes real estate and puts the power to invest in communities back in the hands of small, non-institutional investors. As the Co-Founder and CEO, I’m a humble recipient of the Department of Defense SMART Scholarship and know how impactful financial support at the right time can be. I’ve been fortunate enough to travel the world, invest in real estate, provide housing to hundreds of people, and teach others how to provide safe, affordable housing to everyone’s benefit. Our company has the backing of several real estate investors with track records over $500M in real estate, support from some of the largest names in the industry like Brandon Turner, and has already secured over $300,000 in investments over the course of it’s lifespan. You’re joining a company that will empower thousands of American citizens, bring data to the people, and make it easier for individual citizens to invest in their communities - attracting new residents, improving tax revenue, and beautifying your cities.
