How do you define a real estate investor?
The firms in this data set are premium grade investors that have a specific investment focus on the real estate sector.

These firms include real estate investment trusts (REITs), real estate-focused private equity firms and other institutional grade firms that are active investors of debt and / or equity capital in the real estate market.

We try to exclude small investors and firms that might classify themselves as hard money lenders.

How many real estate investor firms are in the database?
There are currently 624 firms in this directory.

If I search by region, is that the investor's headquarters or their geographic area of interest?
When you search the real estate investor database by region, the search results are those firms that are headquartered in that region or state. Please note that most of the firms will invest nationally, if not internationally.

How often is the database updated?
We employ a systematic approach to continuously update the database, updating one letter of the alphabet each week. This process results in a complete overhaul of the database every 6 months on a rolling basis.
