Learn from this investor’s $100m mistake
A Grammy-winning artist passed on investing $200K in an emerging real estate disruptor. It’d be worth $100M+ today. Now, the investors behind Venmo and Uber are backing another real estate disruptor. This time, you can invest. Founded by a former Zillow exec, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits to date. They even reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO. And you can invest today. But not for long.

*This is a paid advertisement for Pacaso's Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving the ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the Nasdaq is subject to approvals.
