Is real estate crowdfunding halal?

Answered by the ShariaQuant team

Owning a share of a property and taking a share of the rent is a partnership, and that is permissible. Read carefully though, because many platforms are structured as loans to a developer with a fixed return, which is riba wearing a property label. Fixed return is the word to look for.

Riba in plain language

This is Shariah screening and education, not financial advice. Rulings on newer products differ between scholars, so where a question is disputed we say so rather than pick a side for you. If your situation is unusual, ask your own scholar.
