How Cavisa will work
Step 1
Buy shares
Each property would be held by its own LLC and divided into shares, starting at $100. There is no mortgage to take on and no tenants to manage.
Step 2
Earn rental income
Rent collected from tenants, after expenses, a 5% reserve and fees, would be paid out monthly in proportion to the shares you own.
Step 3
Sell during a Liquidity Window
Four times a year, a 10-business-day window would open. You could list shares for other investors to buy, at prices within a band around an independently appraised reference price. A sale depends on finding a buyer.
How Cavisa compares
| Hold-to-sale platforms | Cavisa | |
|---|---|---|
| How you exit | Wait for the property to be sold | Offer your shares to another investor |
| Who decides when | The platform picks the sale date | You choose when to list your shares |
| How long you're locked in | Until the sale closes, often years | Shares can be listed every quarter; a sale depends on a buyer |
| Rental income | Paid while you hold | Paid while you hold |
Founders
We started Cavisa because real estate is one of the best long-term investments, yet one of the hardest to exit. We believe investors deserve both steady rental income and the freedom to sell.

Cavisa is in development and is not offering securities or accepting investments. Investing in real estate involves risk, including loss of principal. Liquidity would not be guaranteed; sales would depend on matching buyers and sellers during windows.
