01 — Overview

What CrowdStreet does

Access to private markets has historically required institutional relationships, large minimums, or placement through a broker. CrowdStreet addresses this by offering individual accredited investors direct access to private equity, private credit, commercial real estate funds, direct deal CRE, and venture capital through a single online platform. With over 300,000 members, the platform has built a meaningful base of retail and high-net-worth participants who would otherwise lack access to institutional-quality deal flow.

For a family office evaluating CrowdStreet, the key distinction is the investment selection model. CrowdStreet conducts its own sourcing and diligence before listing offerings, removing the need for investors to negotiate direct access with sponsors. The platform currently supports:

  • Private equity funds targeting growth, buyout, or transition strategies
  • Private credit funds financing company growth or acquisitions
  • Commercial real estate funds curated by real estate professionals
  • Direct deal CRE for investors wanting project-level selection
  • Venture capital funds focused on early-stage and high-growth companies

The platform is designed for individual investors building their own portfolios, not for institutional or family office clients requiring bespoke structuring, consolidated reporting across custodians, or dedicated relationship management. Pricing and fee structures are not publicly disclosed, and there is no indication of white-label capability or multi-entity account structures suited to complex family office arrangements. Family offices seeking a self-directed way to access vetted private market opportunities alongside a broader book of business may find CrowdStreet useful as one channel, but it is not built as a primary infrastructure layer for sophisticated family office operations.

More than 300,000 members and counting.
