We Value Transparency and Are Dedicated to Delivering the Answers You Need
Frequently Asked Questions
Building wealth shouldn’t be complicated or out of reach. That’s why we created a straightforward, transparent way to invest in real estate through our private REIT.
Our model is built on accessibility, clarity, and long-term performance, because financial freedom should be within reach for everyone.
REIT BASICS
-
A REIT, or Real Estate Investment Trust, is a structure that allows individuals to invest in a professionally managed real estate portfolio.
There are many types of REIT’s, each with a different focus, so investors can choose one that aligns with their investment goals, whether that’s steady income, long-term growth or a specific property type like residential, commercial or industrial real estate.
-
WealthShare is a private Canadian REIT based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Unlike publicly traded REITs, private REITs are not subject to daily market fluctuations and can offer a more stable, long-term approach.
We provide investors with a fully passive way to invest in real estate. Our focus is on acquiring and managing multifamily residential properties in strong, growing markets. Investors choose WealthShare for our hands-on professional management, clear strategy, and commitment to generating reliable, long-term growth and returns.
-
WealthShare targets a 12% annualized return with an 8% preferred return.
We generate returns through several proven strategies:
Value-Add Improvements – We make minor renovations that increase rental income, which directly boosts property value.
Refinancing – Every 5 years, we aim to refinance properties that have appreciated, unlocking capital to distribute back to investors.
Debt Paydown – We use income to pay down the mortgage, which builds equity in the portfolio.
Passive Appreciation – Over time, as property values rise with the market, it contributes to long-term growth.
-
With a REIT, you’re buying into a professionally managed portfolio without the responsibility of managing properties yourself and limiting the risk to the amount you invest. It’s a truly passive investment that offers access to large-scale real estate with lower minimum investment requirements and built-in diversification.
-
Multifamily real estate includes properties with multiple rental units, like apartment buildings or townhome complexes. Unlike single-family investing, where each property is managed and valued individually, multifamily offers two major advantages:
Economies of Scale – Managing many units in one location helps reduce costs and grow a portfolio more efficiently.
Performance-Based Valuation – Multifamily properties are valued based on net operating income, not nearby sales. That means how well we manage the asset directly impacts its value—giving us control over performance and returns.

RISK & CONSIDERATIONS
-
You should consider your investment goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, and need for liquidity. Like all investments, REITs carry some risk, and they are best suited for long-term investors seeking passive income and capital growth.
-
Real estate markets can fluctuate, and while multifamily properties tend to be more stable, there’s still risk of vacancy, maintenance costs, interest rate changes, and market downturns. Private REITs also tend to be less liquid than public investments.
-
Active investing means directly managing your investments—like owning and managing rental properties. Passive investing, like investing in a REIT, allows you to earn income without day-to-day involvement. WealthShare offers a fully passive experience with professional management.
-
An Exempt Market Dealer (EMD) is a licensed entity that facilitates investments in private market securities, such as WealthShare. EMDs ensure investors meet eligibility requirements and fully understand the investment offering before proceeding.
We’re proud to partner with Atlas One, a trusted EMD located in Vancouver, BC. They provide personalized support to our investors, guiding them through every step of the investment process to ensure a smooth and informed experience.
