Groma Opens Real Estate Investment to Renters

GromaCorp, Inc. (Groma), a Boston-based real estate and fintech startup, has announced the launch of its flagship real estate vehicle, the Groma Real Estate Trust, for non-accredited investors on crowdfunding platform Wefunder.

Like Groma’s closed-end funds, the Groma Real Estate Trust focuses on the mini-multifamily asset class, which consists of residential rental properties with 2-50 units. It seeks to optimize the performance of these assets by applying Groma’s proprietary operating platform and AI tech stack, driving superior resident experience and lower operating costs. In 2025, the Groma Real Estate Trust increased its holdings to over 125 properties across Boston and Providence, achieving annual appreciation of 5% and dividends of 2.85% for a total return of 7.85%, beating industry peers.

The Groma Real Estate Trust has raised nearly $70M to date from institutional and accredited investors. Its launch on Wefunder under Regulation Crowdfunding means that it is now open to all investors, including Groma’s own renters, up to $5M of total capital raised.

“Giving our residents the ability to own a stake in their units and the city around them is a major step towards Groma’s goal of enabling everyone to own a bit of the world around them”, said Groma CEO Seth Priebatsch. “The world works better when everyone owns a part of it, and we’re thrilled to give our renters and others the opportunity to be co-owners of Groma’s portfolio of institutional-grade real estate.”

The Groma Real Estate Trust officially launched on Wefunder on April 22 and has already raised over $1M from over 200 investors. To learn more about this opportunity, read our offering memorandum or reach out to investor-relations@groma.com.
