Arizona-based real estate crowdfunding company Neighborhood Ventures reached its $1 million target fund raise in five hours for Venture on Central, a 16-unit mid-century apartment building located along the historic Murphy Bridle Path in North Central Phoenix.

“This is the quickest fundraise we have ever had on a project. Most of the investors are invested in multiple projects, but we also saw many new investors participate. It’s clear that Arizona residents know that this state is a great place to put their hard-earned money to work,” says Neighborhood Ventures Co-founder and CEO Jamison Manwaring.

Venture on Central, located at 6540 N Central Ave, Phoenix AZ 85012, built in 1959, consists of three separate one-story buildings connected by semi-private patios and a shared courtyard. The units are large, and each have 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. But the property needs a renovation to meet its full potential.

“We love properties in core areas of Phoenix. This property is surrounded by multimillion-dollar homes and is a short drive to downtown. It’s also close to public transportation, and nearby 51 and 17 freeways. It is truly a diamond in the rough and we are lucky to acquire it,” says Neighborhood Ventures Co-founder and President of Real Estate John Kobierowski.

Neighborhood Ventures, Arizona’s first real estate crowdfunding company, offers investment opportunities to Arizona residents of all income levels, with a minimum investment amount of just $1,000. To date, the company has purchased 10 properties and sold four of them, paying investors a 12% preferred annual return on their investments.
