Fractional real estate investing is an investment strategy that involves investing in a small portion of a property rather than the entire property. This type of investment allows investors to purchase a fraction of the ownership in a property and spread the risk among multiple investors. Investors can purchase fractional shares in a property, providing them with a share of the profits from the property. This type of investing is beneficial for those looking to diversify their real estate portfolio without having to invest a large amount of money into a single property.
