A CrowdStreet Case Study
IntelliStay Hospitality Management, LLC, a New York City–based private real estate investment firm focused on hotels in secondary and tertiary U.S. markets, faced the challenge of raising capital for smaller deals without relinquishing control and of managing relationships with a large base of investors. To scale fundraising efficiently and retain ownership, they partnered with CrowdStreet and its Marketplace and investor-management tools.
Using the CrowdStreet Marketplace and integrated Investor Rooms, IntelliStay launched four offerings that raised a total of $8.4M from 290 individual investors (average investment $29,000), with individual deals ranging from $804K to $3.7M. CrowdStreet’s platform and CRM features lowered the minimum entry barrier, streamlined onboarding and communications, and reduced workload for investor management while creating long‑term investor relationships that accelerated IntelliStay’s growth.
