Real Estate for Everyone
Join a group of neighbors and friends who invest in and renovate local homes—together
VISION
The Tennessee Property Investment Collective lowers barriers to real estate ownership by pooling resources, sharing responsibilities, and minimizing risk. Instead of going it alone, members invest or contribute labor (or both) to cover costs, handle renovations, and manage tenants. We use four levels of involvement so anyone—regardless of funds or expertise—can join in the potential rewards.
How It works
As a group, we scout promising local properties, split the purchase among partners, and renovate with collective effort. Once a property is tenant-ready, we assign management roles and distribute monthly rent. Members can join at different levels of involvement, from active financial investors to hands-on renovators or managers. With transparent reporting, we keep barriers low and risks manageable.
Potential projects
Real estate goes far beyond standard single-family rentals. By pooling resources and sharing responsibilities, we have the option to pursue a wide range of ventures—like rent-by-the-room, midterm or short-term rentals, commercial spaces, or even businesses like residential assisted living. We see potential in every corner of the market, opening doors to creative solutions that make real estate more accessible and profitable for all.
REP Status
Real Estate Professional (REP) status can be a powerful way to reduce your household’s tax burden while generating income and building equity in rental properties. When one spouse commits to real estate activities at around half-time, the IRS may allow certain paper losses to offset other household income. Learn how our cooperative approach can help you meet REP requirements and make the most of these tax benefits.
Partners
Working with community associations, churches, and nonprofits is a central part of our cooperative’s offerings. When an organization and its members wish to invest together, we can help to create a dedicated real estate venture tailored to that group’s goals. Each participating member contributes an affordable amount, and then gifts ten percent of their ownership stake to the organization itself, establishing a consistent funding stream that supports the organization’s broader mission. Our cooperative approach is designed to reflect each institution’s values, providing a meaningful way for its members to build financial stability and strengthen social bonds all at once.
