Crowdestate: Europe’s first real estate crowdfunding platform

Crowdestate, Europe’s pioneering real estate crowdfunding platform, has enabled thousands of investors to fund hundreds of successful development projects across the continent. Launched as a pilot in Estonia in 2014, it has since evolved into a regulated financial institution, managing millions in loans across seven European countries.

NodeSWAT and Crowdestate Partnership

Since 2015, NodeSWAT has collaborated with Crowdestate to transform its prototype into a scalable, user-friendly financial platform for individual and institutional investors to manage real estate portfolios. Initially, the platform struggled with performance and scaling issues, leading to frequent downtimes as demand surged.

Over the past decade, NodeSWAT has managed Crowdestate’s core infrastructure, ensuring scalability and compliance with evolving EU crowdfunding regulations, tax laws, and cross-border investment requirements. Key achievements include:

• Reducing new opportunity downtime from 30 minutes to zero
• Enabling thousands of simultaneous investments
• Introducing investor-friendly features like automated tax calculations, reporting tools, and a secondary marketplace
• Redesigning the platform to meet financial institution standards

Outcomes

Today, Crowdestate offers real estate investment opportunities from seven European countries to investors in over 90 countries worldwide, supported by NodeSWAT’s robust and scalable solutions.
