We come from a variety of backgrounds and places near and far, even opposite sides of the world, but share in common the values that lead to one thing: Do the Right Thing.
Gopal Sadagopal and Ryan Schmidt had never met when each of them started buying real estate investments around 2010. Each built up a respectable portfolio independently before they met in 2015 and started investing in apartment buildings as a team. Rise Capital employees have also been involved in real estate prior to joining the team. In total, Rise Capital principals and employees have over 70 years of residential investment property experience.
Operating originally as LOTI Holdings, Gopal and Ryan purchased seven apartment investments totaling 310 units and $10M in purchase costs with their own private funding.
After being asked by friends and family how they could be involved, Rise Capital, LLC was formed in order to offer a passive real estate investment option in apartment purchases, called "Rise Opportunities." This means that investors get ownership in the investments without having to do any of the buying or management themselves. Rise Capital so far has purchased 6 properties totaling more than 2,000 leases.
You would be hard-pressed to find a team that's harder-working, more transparent, and more experienced than the team at Rise Capital. Plus, it's doubtful you'll find a team that has more fun in the process.
