Mintos is excited to unveil passive real estate investing, a fresh avenue for our investors to diversify their portfolios. This new offering enhances our broad spectrum of investment options, providing a seamless way for investors to incorporate real estate into their diversified investment strategies.
By introducing passive real estate investing, we aim to open up the world of real estate to our investors, combining the traditional benefits of property investment with the ease and accessibility Mintos is known for. This approach allows investors to tap into the real estate market’s potential, expanding their portfolio’s diversity without the complexities traditionally associated with property investment.
What is passive real estate investing?
Passive real estate investing is an approach where investment returns are generated from real estate assets without requiring active management or direct ownership by the investor. This method stands in contrast to active real estate investing, where the investor not only manages the property but often holds direct ownership. By choosing passive investing, individuals can benefit from the potential stability and returns of the real estate market, while avoiding the complexities and time commitment associated with property management.
Traditionally, real estate investing has been synonymous with a significant commitment of time, resources, and personal involvement. Such tasks are not only time-consuming but can also incur additional expenses, from emergency repairs to legal fees in tenant disputes. Moreover, the initial financial barrier to entry in traditional real estate is notably high. Purchasing a property outright requires a substantial upfront investment, including down payments, closing costs, and potential property improvement expenses before it can generate rental income.
These factors deter many from leveraging the potential benefits of the real estate market. In contrast, passive real estate investing on Mintos aims to address these issues, offering a more accessible, less demanding way for investors to enter the real estate market and enjoy its potential rewards.

The platform simplifies the process, from selection to investment, enabling a smooth transition into real estate investing. It presents a compelling case for those seeking to diversify their investment portfolio with real estate, offering regular income streams and the prospect of long-term capital gains.

Is passive real estate investing right for you?
Pros:
1. Diversification: By including passive real estate investments in your portfolio, you’re incorporating an investment that historically moves differently from traditional stock and bond markets. This means when other parts of your portfolio might be underperforming, real estate can provide stability, or even growth, reducing your portfolio’s overall risk through broader exposure.
2. Steady returns: Investing in real estate through Mintos offers the dual benefit of generating steady rental income, which can contribute to your cash flow, and the opportunity for long-term capital gains. Real estate investments have the potential to increase in value over time, contributing to your wealth-building efforts.
3. Minimal time commitment: Opting for passive real estate investment through Mintos means you can reap the benefits of property investment without the day-to-day responsibilities of property management. This approach saves you a significant amount of time, making it a convenient option for those looking to invest in real estate without becoming landlords themselves.
4. Low entry point: With Mintos, the barrier to entering the real estate market is significantly lowered. Starting with investments as small as €50, we make it possible for a wider range of investors to access the real estate market, democratizing the opportunity to earn from this asset class.
Cons:
1. Limited control: Engaging in passive real estate investment through Mintos means entrusting the management and decision-making processes to experts. While this frees you from the day-to-day management hassles, it also means you have less direct influence over individual property decisions.
2. Long-term horizon: The nature of real estate investment leans towards a longer investment horizon. This is an essential consideration for investors, as the full benefits of capital gains in real estate, reflecting market growth and property value increases, typically manifest over more extended periods. It’s suited for investors who are in it for the long haul, ready to wait for the market to upturn or for their property investments to mature.
3. Liquidity: Compared to stocks or bonds, real estate investments through Mintos offer less liquidity. This means that converting your real estate investments back into cash, especially at short notice, might not be as straightforward as selling stocks or bonds. This is an important consideration for investors who prioritize quick access to their investments.
