Fractional real estate investing through Realbricks opens up opportunities for investors looking to diversify their portfolios. However, understanding the legal and tax implications is vital for maximizing returns and ensuring compliance. This guide will walk you through the key considerations specific to Realbricks.
Investing through Realbricks involves purchasing securities, as each investment represents a fractional share of real estate. This means that your investments are subject to federal and state securities laws, overseen by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Realbricks complies with SEC regulations, ensuring a secure and transparent investment process.
The securities issuer (Neptune REM, LLC) filed for its offering under Regulation A+, a rule that smaller companies can utilize to raise capital from both accredited and non-accredited investors. Compliance requires thorough financial and risk disclosures which provide investors with detailed information about the prospective investment, which enhances transparency and investor protection.
Each property on Realbricks includes numerous disclosures and thorough documentation. Key documents include the offering circular, operating agreements, and subscription agreements. These documents outline your rights and obligations, management structure, and income distribution methods, ensuring you are fully informed before investing.
Taxation is a critical aspect of fractional real estate investing. Here are some key tax considerations when investing with Realbricks:
While Realbricks currently caters exclusively to U.S. investors, future plans include opening the platform to international investors. When this happens, understanding additional tax implications, such as compliance with the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA), will become essential. FIRPTA mandates that foreign investors pay U.S. income tax on real estate dispositions, ensuring compliance with U.S. tax laws.
Investing always carries risk, but Realbricks takes several measures to mitigate these risks:

Neptune does not have a public trading market for its Series Interests. While it intends to seek a quotation on PPEX, an alternative trading system (ATS) operated by North Capital Investment Technology, Inc. (“PPEX”) with a view to providing our holders of Series Interests with potential liquidity in the form of a secondary market for their investment in our Series Interests. However, there can be no guarantee that a secondary market may develop, or if it does, as to the volume or pricing with respect to any secondary trading that might develop. The PPEX does not employ market makers to provide liquidity, unlike national securities exchanges. Until Neptune’s Series Interests are listed, if ever, you may not sell the company’s Series Interests. Therefore, it may be difficult for you to sell Neptune’s Series Interests at the time you wish to do so, if you are able to sell them at all. If you are able to sell your Series Interests, you may have to sell them at a substantial discount to their public offering price. Because of the illiquid nature of our Series Interests, you should purchase Neptune’s Series Interests only as a long-term investment and be prepared to hold them for an indefinite period of time.
