William C. Skelley is a renowned entrepreneur, investor, and innovator in the real estate industry. He is best known for his pioneering work in real estate crowdfunding, which has revolutionized the way people invest in real estate. Skelley's platform, iFunding, was the first real estate crowdfunding platform in the world, and it allowed investors to invest in real estate projects from their mobile devices, making it easier and more accessible than ever before.
Before Skelley came up with the idea for iFunding, real estate investing was a complicated and exclusive process that was limited to wealthy investors and institutions. Skelley saw an opportunity to democratize real estate investing by leveraging technology and the power of the crowd. He recognized that many people had a desire to invest in real estate but didn't have the means or the knowledge to do so. Skelley's vision was to create a platform that would make real estate investing accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or financial situation.
Skelley's first step was to create the iFunding app, which allowed investors to browse and invest in real estate projects from their mobile devices. The app was a game-changer, as it allowed investors to invest in real estate projects with just a few taps on their phone, removing the need for time-consuming paperwork or complicated investment processes. The app was also designed to be user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy for investors to navigate and find the right investment opportunities.
With the iFunding app in place, Skelley launched the iFunding platform, which offered a wide range of real estate investment opportunities, including commercial and residential properties. Investors could choose from a variety of projects based on their preferences, investment goals, and risk tolerance. Skelley's platform also offered features such as real-time investment tracking and detailed project reports, which provided investors with the information they needed to make informed investment decisions.
