The Allocate team recently hosted Crowd Street's Anna-Marie Allander Lieb and David Govshtein in our podcast (episode link found in comments below) as the pair discussed their platform's transformative journey in providing commercial real estate investing opportunities for accredited investors. Born from the 2012 JOBS Act, Crowd Street has grown from a novel concept to a robust platform deploying $4.5 billion across 800 transactions, with a unique $25,000 minimum investment that provides access to institutional-quality deals. The conversation explored the platform's evolution, rigorous deal screening process, insights into various real estate sectors, and the impact of changing economic conditions. With over 300,000 members, Crowd Street is now expanding beyond commercial real estate into other alternative investments like private credit and private equity, positioning itself as a comprehensive private market investing platform that empowers accredited investors with sophisticated investment opportunities. #privatemarkets #innovation #alternatives #realestate #wealthmanagement

In our latest Allocate Podcast episode, Crowd Street's David Govshtein and Anna-Marie Allander Lieb talk through: • The evolution of the platform since the JOBS Act • What they’re hearing from investors about alternative asset demand • Why education and transparency are critical in the next wave of private market investing 🎧 Tune in to hear how Crowd Street is positioning itself as a destination for accredited investors seeking institutional exposure. #AccreditedInvestors #AlternativeInvesting #AllocatePodcast #PrivateMarkets

March gave us a front-row seat to the evolving shape of private markets. From investor dinners to masterclasses, one theme kept surfacing: LPs and GPs alike are adapting to a new set of realities—ones that demand sharper focus, tighter alignment, and smarter structures. Across hundreds of conversations this month, 5 key insights emerged: 🔹 AI is shifting capital needs Efficiency is up, but so is churn. What looks like ARR may just be "Annual Curiosity Revenue." Sustainable growth still takes real capital—and smarter deployment. 🔹 Liquidity remains a structural tension point The 10-year fund model continues to clash with company timelines. Innovation is rising—continuation funds, secondaries, and reserve strategies are all in sharper focus. 🔹 SPVs are back—but so is LP discipline From stacked carry to adverse selection, LPs are digging deeper. The smartest questions start with incentives and alignment. 🔹 The private market stack is growing up Allocate crossed $1B in AUM/AUA this month—driven by the demand for institutional-grade infrastructure that simplifies discovery, diligence, and allocation. 🔹 LPs are evolving—fast Whether at AltsLA or around the dinner table, one thing is clear: LPs are becoming more agile, informed, and tech-enabled as public and private markets converge. As we head into Q2, the pace is only picking up. We’re proud to be building alongside a community that’s rewriting the playbook with discipline, creativity, and conviction. #PrivateMarkets #VentureCapital #FamilyOffices #WealthManagement #AllocateInsights
