Have you ever considered investing in properties but felt put off by significant down payments, complex legal work, and then having to deal with tenants?

Or perhaps it was the fear of getting trapped in interest-based debt that kept you away?

Imagine if these obstacles didn't exist, and you could effortlessly invest in properties in New York or Texas and beyond without paying thousands of dollars in down payments or dealing with the responsibilities of being a landlord.

Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, it isn’t! And here’s why:

At Wahed Real Estate, we’re revolutionizing the way you invest in properties, making it accessible for everyone.

Here are the top 8 reasons why you should think about investing in real estate with us:

1. Shariah-Compliant Investments

‍

In traditional real estate investing, you often need to take out a mortgage to buy a property. Any sort of conventional loan or leverage involves paying interest (also known as riba), which is explicitly prohibited by Islamic law.

We adhere to a strict no-debt, no-interest policy, making sure that all our properties are bought outright with cash, without any borrowing. This means that your investments with us are always 100% Shariah-compliant.

Our dedication to maintaining Shariah compliance is upheld by our adherence to the guidance provided by our Shariah committee, facilitated by the Shariah Review Bureau (SRB), a body of scholars who rigorously review and supervise all our investment practices. As part of this commitment, we ensure that no property is listed in our app without prior duly approval by the SRB.

You can learn more about our commitment to Shariah here.

2. We Manage Everything for You

‍

We let you invest in properties without the hassles of being a landlord. Wahed handles everything from vetting and selecting tenants to managing day-to-day concerns and even the final sale of the property.

These are some of the things you won’t ever have to deal with: 

With Wahed, you get all the benefits of owning a property without the headaches of property management. This lets you focus on other aspects of life while we take care of your investments.

3. Investing with Us is Simple

‍

As a beginner, starting out in property investing is a time-consuming and complex process that requires a deep understanding of locations, legal procedures and financial strategies.

Wahed makes halal real estate investing easy and straightforward. All you need to do is pick a property, review the investment materials, choose how much you want to invest and then sit back and watch how your investment performs.

4. Start investing with Just $500

‍

Buying conventional residential properties requires a substantial amount of capital and closing costs. Even with enough saved for a down payment, there are usually extra expenses involved that can make purchasing property a challenge, especially for young adults.Wahed allows you to start investing in fractional real estate with as little as $500. This low entry point makes real estate investing accessible to everyone. Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just starting out, you can start building your property portfolio with Wahed at any stage of your life.*

5. Income-Generating Properties Expertly Handpicked for You

‍

We use our strong network of professionals with decades of collective industry experience to identify and secure properties with competitive income potential. Every opportunity is carefully assessed through detailed financial models and checks to maximise the chance of value and strong potential returns for our investors.

Many of our properties also come with secured lease lock-ins, providing stable and predictable income.

6. Passive Income at the Tip of Your Fingers

‍

One of the most attractive aspects of real estate investing is the potential to earn consistent passive income through rental yields, paid out quarterly.

With traditional property ownership, this income isn't truly passive – you'd need to actively manage the property and tenants.

But with Wahed, your income is hands-off. We do all the hard work, while you receive regular quarterly rental income in the form of dividends, without lifting a finger.* 

While the returns are not guaranteed and there can be periods of non-payments, our goal is to keep the property tenanted in order to facilitate regular disbursements.

7. Opportunity to invest in many properties

‍

Ever come across the advice to not keep all your valuables in one place? In the world of investing, we call this “diversification” – that essentially means spreading your investments across different assets to minimize risk.

With traditional real estate, diversifying often means buying multiple properties, which is out of reach for most people. You might end up investing all your savings into one property, and if something goes wrong, you could be in hot water. 

Meanwhile, Wahed gives you the freedom to invest in as many properties as you like. You could invest in an apartment in Dallas, a house in North Carolina, or in the future, potentially a luxury apartment in New York, all accessible with a relatively small investment. 

This approach not only softens the impact of local market fluctuations but also improves your chances of generating better returns. 

8. Invest from the Comfort of Your Phone - Anywhere, Anytime

‍

Gone are the days when investing in properties meant in-person viewings and stacks of paperwork. Wahed’s user-friendly app offers a convenient way to invest and manage your real estate investments directly from your phone.

You can keep track of your portfolio, monitor how much income you’re getting and invest in new properties – all with just a few taps. 

The app simplifies the investment process, making it more accessible and convenient, allowing you to stay on top of your investments no matter where you are.
