Due to the low interest rates and uncertainty in the economic outlook investors seek alternative investments to achieve a satisficing return. Real estate is the third largest asset class and represent a large amount of physical capital with a unique risk. For an investor's utility-maximizing real estate should be a natural part of a portfolio. The thresholds for investing in real estate has generally been very high but thanks to digitisation, the emergence of Internet-based platforms facilitated and enabled capital seekers to exploit small private investors. The intermediate method is called crowdfunding. Through observations, interviews, questionnaires to potential investors in crowdfunding for real estate and literature studies, a triangulation from an investor perspective has allowed an investigation of crowdfunding of real estate. Within the crowdfunding market, real estate crowdfunding is the area with largest growth in recent years. The first crowdfunding platform within real estate on the Swedish market was introduced in 2014. So far, projects presented on the platform have been successful and generated returns. For an investor, the phenomenon also implies risks. Today there is no legal definition of crowdfunding and the market is only partially regulated. In many respects, the consumer protection is not equivalent to the ones available for regulated investment vehicles. The new phenomenon also implies limited liquidity and lack of a secondary market. Crowdfunding is facing both challenges and opportunities in the future. ; På grund av det låga ränteläget och den osäkra konjunkturutsikten söker investerare alternativa investeringar för att nå en tillfredställande avkastning. Fastigheter utgör den tredje största tillgångsklassen och representerar en stor mängd av fysiskt kapital med unik risk. För en investerare som är utility-maximerande borde fastigheter vara ett självklart inslag i en portfölj. Trösklarna till att investera i fastigheter har vanligtvis varit mycket höga men tack vare digitaliseringen har uppkomsten av internetbaserade plattformar underlättat och möjliggjort kapitalsökare att exploatera små privata investerare. Den intermediära metoden kallas crowdfunding, eller gräsrotsfinansiering som det också benämns. Genom observationer, intervjuer, en enkätundersökning med potentiella investerare i fastighetscrowdfunding samt litteraturstudier har en triangulering ur en investerares perspektiv möjliggjort en kartläggning och utredning av crowdfunding av fastigheter. Inom crowdfunding är fastighetsbranschen det område som har haft störst tillväxt de senaste åren. Sveriges första digitala crowdfundingtjänst för fastigheter infördes på kapitalmarknaden under 2014. Hittills har projekten för fastighetscrowdfunding i Sverige varit framgångsrika och generat avkastning men för en investerare innebär crowdfunding också en hel del…
