Why Flock?

There are 17 million Americans who own rental property. Most don't want to be landlords anymore; however, selling isn’t always a good option. Why? You’d lose income and appreciation, trigger tax liabilities, displace tenants, and face the cost and hassle of preparing the property for sale. We’re here to help.

Flock is building the retirement solution for landlords. We’ve created the first tech-driven 721 Exchange, allowing rental property owners to convert their real estate into passively owned shares in a professionally managed portfolio of homes. Some call it the UPREIT; we call it "The People’s REIT."

Unlike a traditional property sale that ends the buyer/seller relationship, Flock’s approach initiates a new journey. When owners contribute their real estate to Flock, they experience a carefully crafted process that relieves their pain points and offers ongoing benefits. It’s a better way to sell and own real estate.

We’re backed by a strong group of venture capital firms, including Andreessen Horowitz, Human Capital, Susa Ventures, Box Group, and Primary Venture Partners, along with strategic investors like 1Sharpe Ventures, Redwood Trust (NYSE: RWT), and Eric Wu (former CEO of Opendoor).
