Investor Profile

Henry is a family man. He is the primary breadwinner for the family, and while he makes a steady annual income, he is looking for ways to make his money work harder and smarter for him. Henry needs a stable, low-risk investment, especially if it provides a real opportunity for passive income. 

Henry believes that investing is the smart move. He is intimidated by the large investment houses and their high fees and the do-it-yourself online brokerage houses that still require a good deal of knowledge, forethought, and fee payments. 

Henry is attracted to Groundfloor’s real estate investment platform as he knows real estate is a historical asset class that provides stability. Henry’s investment strategy is to utilize Groundfloor’s Investment Wizard, where he can set a Moderate investment strategy. 

Henry has dived into the many blogs and help articles on the Groundfloor website and was particularly inspired by the “Masterclass” webinar series of articles. 

By initially investing $5,000 and allocating an additional $50 each month by cooking more meals at home, Henry’s 10-year outlook with Groundfloor’s consistent 10% returns yields the following performance.
