    • Which online Real Estate platforms offer the best (and safest) returns?
    • Will platforms like RealtyMogul, PatchofLand, and RealtyShares continue to pay high interest to shareholders?
    • In a major downturn, will the major platforms have epic defaults? What will happen to those online platform’s investors?
    • Are any online platforms in danger of failing now and taking investors with them?
    • Will online platforms compete with Private Equity and Hedge Funds anytime soon?
    • Are there already too many online Real Estate platforms or will there be many more to come?
    • Will the low cost of debt change anytime soon?
    • Will the success of the Fundrise REIT be a game-changer?
    • In the near future will equity investments in Reg A+ offerings like Allegiancy’s replace real estate loans?
    • Will the major RE platforms like RealtyMogul, PatchofLand, RealtyShares, and others be acquired or go public?
    • Can the new SEC Crowdfunding rule (Title III) be used to finance smaller properties (up to $1MM) and will this rule bring non-accredited investors into real estate investing?
    • Is there a shortage of good deals or a shortage of money for the various traditional Debt, Alternative Debt, CMBS & Equity Markets Players?
    • Does the influx of foreign capital have any effect on the U.S. real estate market?
    • Is traditional Real Estate syndication still alive? Will it be replaced by online platforms?

    • What types of deals are the major private equity firms looking for?
    • How will the online platforms affect small brokerages?
    • How will online Real Estate investing affect the banks? Will they join in, like they have with peer-to-peer/marketplace lending?
    • Will the largest commercial real estate companies use online platforms to a greater extent?
    • Is online investing in real estate becoming a part of every portfolio? How does it rate as to safety against all other investments?
    • Will the platforms go to investments even smaller than $5000?
    • How will increased SEC scrutiny on real estate platforms and other deals affect the marketplace?
    • What future regulatory changes can we expect?
