In the past, if an individual wanted to fund a project by investment, such as a property development, business or product, they would require a large amount of capital in order to be able to do this. The sourcing of this capital often meant seeking out institutional or bank financing resulting in the masses being potentially “cut out of the deal”.

So, what has changed?

This blog examines how crowdfunding has changed the investment landscape from both the developers and investors point of view. Here at LEOcrowdfunding, we believe that crowdfunding is changing the way that businesses raise finance as well as revolutionising the way that people are able to invest in property.
