connect with trusted fellow investors

At Arcus, building a trustworthy and secure environment for your real estate co-investments is our top priority. We understand that peace of mind is paramount when you're making important financial decisions. That's why we've introduced the Arcus Verified Investor program – a crucial step to enhance safety, ensure quality, and foster a community you can rely on. 

What is an Arcus Verified Investor?

An Arcus Verified Investor is a member who has voluntarily completed a comprehensive verification process designed to confirm their identity and, in some cases, their financial capacity and investment experience.  This process helps create a more transparent and secure platform for everyone. 

Why is Verification Important?

Our verification system is designed to:

• Increase Trust: Knowing that fellow investors in a Circle have been verified builds a stronger sense of trust and security within the community. 

• Enhance Quality: By ensuring participants are genuine and serious about co-investment, we improve the overall quality of the experience for all users. 

• Reduce Risk: Verification helps mitigate risks, such as fraud, and ensures that investment Circles are composed of individuals who are well-identified. 

The Verification Process: A Commitment to Security

To become a Verified Investor, members may undergo several checks. Arcus is committed to a thorough process, which can include:

• Identity Verification: We confirm a user's identity, often using government-issued ID verification and potentially facial recognition technology.  This helps ensure that users are who they claim to be.  Background checks might also be part of this process to further safeguard the community. 

• Financial Verification: Depending on the nature of the investments, we may verify a user's financial capacity.  This could involve requesting documents like bank statements, tax returns, or credit reports.  For larger investments, proof of funds might be required. 

• Investment Experience Verification: In some instances, we may assess an investor's experience level through questionnaires or interviews.  This helps in matching investors with suitable opportunities and like-minded individuals. 

Benefits of Being a Verified Investor (and Investing with Them):

• Clear Distinction: Verified Investors may be identifiable on the platform, for instance, through a special badge on their profiles. 

• Access to More Opportunities: Verification might grant access to exclusive investment Circles or premium platform features. 

• Greater Peace of Mind: Interact and co-invest with the added reassurance that comes from a community committed to transparency and security.

Tiered Verification for Tailored Assurance

Arcus may implement a tiered verification system.  This means different levels of verification might be required based on the investment's size or associated risk.  For example, basic verification might be sufficient for smaller opportunities, while enhanced verification could be necessary for larger or more complex investments.

Your Security is Our Priority

We understand the importance of data privacy. Arcus is committed to:

• Data Encryption: Protecting your sensitive information during storage and transmission.

By implementing a robust "Verified Investor" program, Arcus aims to create a platform where you can connect and co-invest with greater confidence, knowing that we are dedicated to fostering a secure and high-quality environment for your real estate ambitions.
