At Arrived, we’re on a mission to make real estate investing accessible, simple, and rewarding for everyone. A critical part of that mission is how we approach fees. We believe fees matter—because they can significantly impact final investment returns.
That’s why we’ve built our business model around three core strategies:
Full transparency
We ensure that every cost is clearly disclosed so you know exactly what you’re paying and why. Arrived investments are qualified with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and we file annual audited financial statements for each Regulation A investment, which are publicly available to all investors.Competitive fees
Our innovative business model and efficient use of technology allow us to offer some of the most competitive rates in the real estate investment industry.Simple, easy-to-understand
We keep our fee structure straightforward, eliminating confusion so you can focus on building your portfolio with confidence.
How Does Arrived Offer Some of the Most Competitive Fees in the Industry?
Our innovative business model prioritizes generating revenue from property sellers rather than investors. Specifically, we utilize agent rebates—a fee paid by the seller when we purchase a property. When Arrived acquires a rental property, we collect this agent rebate as part of the standard transaction process. Importantly, this rebate does not come out of your investment. By leveraging this approach, we can keep investor fees significantly lower than if we did not have access to this agent rebate revenue stream.
Transparent and Simple Asset Management Fees
Arrived charges its clients a small AUM (assets under management) fee¹ to cover the essential services that make Arrived’s platform seamless for investors. That AUM fee varies by product and is between 0.1% - 0.30% per quarter. That equals $1.00 - $3.00 per quarter for every $1,000 invested.
The AUM fee reimburses Arrived for the following services:
Preparing tax forms for investors
Distributing dividends
Procuring insurance policies and filing claims
Ensuring timely property tax and loan payments
Overseeing financial accounting and property managers, including rental rate analysis, expense management, and property improvement
Professional Oversight of Expense Management
While we have discussed AUM fees, it’s worth highlighting that there may be additional expenses and fees at the asset or fund level that are incurred through the regular course of business when acquiring and managing real estate investments. This is common not only with most alternative asset investment companies but also with nearly all mutual funds, ETFs, and REITs.
These other costs can include items already included in the original offering price (like closing costs, escrow fees, a one time sourcing fee), which can be found on the offering details section of every property's financial tab as well as the offering documents. There are also future operating expenses (like repairs & maintenance, property management costs, or property taxes) that are paid out of future rental income.
Why We’re Obsessed with Low Fees
The financial services industry has long been criticized for excessive fee structures that erode investor returns. At Arrived, we’re turning that model on its head.
We’ve built our business with technology and economies of scale to minimize costs and maximize returns. From automating tax preparation to overseeing property management with precision, every decision is focused on saving our investors money while delivering the highest-quality experience.
This approach isn’t just about fees—it’s about transforming how people invest in real estate.
By putting investors first and embracing transparency, simplicity, and innovation, Arrived is creating a future where everyone can participate in the benefits of property ownership without unnecessary fees weighing them down.
