  2. Information for Issuers

What data do I need to provide to addy so I can get approved to raise capital?

There are multiple documents needed to receive approval for raising capital.

This is not an exhaustive list but covers the key documents that may be required for addy to perform its due diligence. Additionally, these documents will be made available to potential addy investors in a confidential data room at the discretion of the Issuer. If a document is not provided, please email realestate@addyinvest.com stating the reason.

Where do I upload documents?

Please upload directly into addy Business if you have a addy Business account setup. Create one if you do not have one. We highly recommend setting up a addy Business account as that is where the information will go and is a requirement to launch a Public Issuance if your property is approved.
