In the past, owning real estate has always required access to serious capital.
Not anymore.
We’re excited to announce that Republic has acquired Compound, a real estate investment platform that lets everybody invest in real estate around the world in small dollar increments. Compound is based in New York City and has been backed by some of the biggest venture capital firms in the world, including NEA, Founders Fund, Global Founders Capital, and Kairos.
Compound has a seasoned real estate team with decades of investment experience through various market cycles.
Together we’re launching Republic Real Estate, bringing you access to high-quality real estate investment opportunities to complement your existing startup investments with Republic.

Voted the #1 best place to live by US World & News, Austin has seen impressive growth in recent years, which is just one of the many reasons this one bedroom one bath condo in the heart of the city’s Historic Rainey Street District is an attractive investment.
Our Nashville offering is unique in that this one bedroom, one bath luxury condo has the permissions and infrastructure in place to be operated as a short-term vacation rental. The unit is also being delivered with over $23,000 of furnishings and decorations, which we believe adds to this compelling investment opportunity in one of the hottest markets.
This one bedroom, one and a half bath unit is in one of the most sought after condo developments in Miami, in one of the most bustling neighborhoods you already know and love—Brickell. This building has full, luxury amenities and is primely located in South Florida’s premier business and finance center.
What are the benefits of real estate investing, anyway?
Real estate is the world’s largest asset class and has historically generated strong, uncorrelated returns. There are tons of potential benefits, but we’ll just name a few:
Passive income: earn income without active management
Stable cash flow: rental payments provide steady cash flow through dividend payouts
Tax advantages: there are numerous tax breaks and favorable deductions associated with real estate investing
Capital appreciation: historically, real estate prices have increased over time
Inflation protection: home values and rents typically increase during times of inflation
Diversification: low correlation to other asset classes
The return profile of real estate investing has historically been steady, which we believe is a natural complement to the higher-risk, higher-return investments currently on our platform. Now, you can invest in real estate like you invest in startups.*
*Republic encourages investors to do robust research on each opportunity and to evaluate if the risk–return profile of real estate investment meets their individual needs. No investment is risk free, and all face possible total loss of principal.
