SDB

What SDB does

SDB is a privately-held Israeli real estate investment company headquartered in Bnei Brak that facilitates overseas real estate investment opportunities for Israeli high-net-worth individuals. Founded in 2005 and operating for over 19 years, SDB has developed a syndication model that allows investors to enter international property markets with a minimum commitment of $50,000 per project. The company curates and manages three project categories — entrepreneurial/development, income-producing (multi-family and commercial rental), and value-add/improvement — across three target geographies: the United States (notably New York, Florida, and Texas), the United Kingdom, and Spain. To date, the company reports 154 existing projects, 81 completed exits, and 1,700 active investors, positioning itself as one of the largest private real estate investment funds in Israel.

The company's operational stack comprises an in-house analyst department for opportunity underwriting, a management and control department for ongoing project oversight, a dedicated investor relations function, and local partner networks in each target country that provide regulatory navigation, cultural insight, and co-investment capital. SDB distributes opportunities through direct sales (phone, WhatsApp, contact form), a proprietary investor portal (app.achieved.io), and content marketing via its own blog, podcast, and earned media in Calcalist and Maariv. Investment terms and pricing are negotiated individually in compliance with Israeli Securities Law and the Mutual Joint Investments Law.

SDB earns revenue primarily through transaction and management fees on syndicated real estate projects. Co-CEOs Srulik Hanokh and Dan Liberman lead a team of approximately 16+ named professionals spanning investment analysis, real estate advisory, marketing, investor relations, finance (two CPAs), project management, and administration. The technology layer is conventional — no public AI, API, or proprietary platform technology is disclosed; differentiation rests on deal-sourcing expertise, local partner relationships, and investor trust built over nearly two decades. No external institutional capital, parent company, or public-market exposure is evident.

Direct peers

• Yieldstreet: US-based alternative-investment platform offering curated, lower-minimum real estate and other private-market deals to individual accredited investors. Functionally the closest analogue to SDB's "low-equity access to professionally sourced deals" GTM, but at greater scale and broader asset-class coverage.
• CrowdStreet: Online commercial real estate investing marketplace connecting individual investors with sponsors of single deals and funds. Shares SDB's broker-of-foreign-real-estate thematic and minimum-investment accessibility, though US-domestic focus.
• Fundrise: US real-estate crowdfunding and investment platform that pools retail money into diversified portfolios of residential and commercial projects with low minimums. Comparable to SDB on the pooled, low-minimum, multi-project structure, though focused on US-domestic assets.
• EquityMultiple: Commercial real estate investment platform offering curated equity and debt deals to accredited investors with low minimums. Mirrors SDB's institutional-style deal access for individual investors and emphasis on vetted sponsors.
• RealtyMogul: Real estate crowdfunding platform for both debt and equity investments in commercial and residential properties, targeting accredited individual investors. Comparable bundled offering to SDB with low minimums and sponsor-curated deals.

Emerging players

• Groundfloor: Real estate debt/equity investment platform with very low minimums, primarily residential fix-and-flip and rental. Comparable in product accessibility rather than SDB's foreign-deal syndication model.

Broad incumbents

• Kennedy Lewis Investment Management: US private credit/real-estate lender and investor operating cross-border deals. Comparable as an institutional counterparty SDB or its investors might partner with for larger US real estate transactions.
• Betterment / Wealthfront (private real estate sleeves): Larger US digital wealth platforms that have begun offering private-market alternatives (incl. real estate funds) to mass-affluent investors. Adjacent threat/comparable as SDB scales: same end-customer desire for curated real estate exposure via a digital interface.
• Marcus by Goldman Sachs (real-estate strategy): Goldman Sachs consumer/investor platform offering curated alternatives including real estate to mass-affluent US investors. Comparable as a brand-backed, low-minimum private real estate alternative for retail investors.
• Investec (Real Estate / International Property Finance): International private bank with dedicated UK, US, and Spanish property investment financing and advisory to HNW clients. Overlaps with SDB's overseas-Israeli-investor franchise, particularly for UK and Spain deals.
