NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESS Newswire / May 20, 2025 / Alto, an alternative asset investment platform that enables individuals to invest in private markets using retirement funds, has introduced Ginkgo REIT Inc. on the Alto Marketplace. Joining the platform is part of Ginkgo REIT's strategy to expand access to its professionally managed, income-focused multifamily real estate offering for accredited investors using self-directed IRAs (SDIRAs).
Ginkgo REIT, managed by Ginkgo Residential, specializes in workforce housing across North and South Carolina-regions experiencing significant population and economic growth. The REIT focuses on acquiring, upgrading, and managing high-quality, attainable communities with an emphasis on long-term value creation and sustainability.
"Ginkgo's disciplined investment approach in workforce housing-an increasingly vital sector-offers investors a compelling way to diversify their retirement portfolios, especially in today's uncertain economic climate," said Scott Harrigan, President of Alto. "With ongoing concerns around market volatility, private market investments like Ginkgo's may offer diversification, income potential, and meaningful community impact. We're pleased to highlight Ginkgo's offering on Alto's Marketplace in response to investor appetite for resilient, real estate-backed opportunities."1
Further strengthening its portfolio, Ginkgo Residential recently announced the acquisition of The Preserve at Pine Valley, a 219-unit, garden-style apartment community located in Wilmington, NC. Acquired for $32.1 million in an all-cash joint venture with J.P. Morgan Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (JPMREIT), the property aligns with Ginkgo's value-add strategy of enhancing workforce housing through thoughtful upgrades and operational improvements.
"We're excited to see the positive response from Alto investors and to continue executing on our strategy with acquisitions like The Preserve at Pine Valley," said Bill Green, Principal and Co-CEO of Ginkgo Residential. "Self-directed IRAs provide a powerful avenue for individuals to invest in real estate, and Alto makes that access easier and more streamlined."
Since its inception in July 2019, Ginkgo REIT has delivered an average annualized total return of 11.8%, offering investors the potential for stable, tax-efficient income and long-term capital appreciation. As always, past performance is not indicative of future results.
Accredited investors can explore Ginkgo REIT Inc. and other exclusive alternative investments today on the Alto Marketplace.
