From your first visit to the platform to your first investment — and everything that happens after. Here’s exactly what to expect, step by step.
One of the most common things that holds first-time investors back isn’t the investment itself — it’s not knowing what the process actually looks like. How do I get started? What do I need to provide? When does my money move? What happens after I invest? These are the right questions. This article answers all of them, from your first visit to the platform to the moment you exit an investment.
The journey starts with information, not money. Visit rafcapital.in to browse the platform, read about how fractional ownership works, and explore the types of assets Rafcapital lists — villa plots, farmhouse land, commercial properties, warehouses, residential buildings, and development projects. Every listing includes full asset details: location analysis, legal structure, investment thesis, fee disclosure, and expected holding period.
Take your time here. The best investment decisions are made after careful evaluation, not urgency. If you have questions at this stage, the Rafcapital team is available to walk you through how the platform works before you register.
Investor Tip: Read every document associated with an opportunity before expressing interest. The LLP Agreement, asset summary, and fee disclosure together tell you everything you need to evaluate whether an opportunity fits your portfolio.
When you’re ready to move forward, create your account on the Rafcapital platform. Registration is straightforward and entirely digital. KYC (Know Your Customer) verification follows — this is a mandatory regulatory requirement for all investment platforms in India. You will need your PAN card, a government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar, passport, or driving licence), and bank account details for investment and distribution purposes.
KYC is completed online and typically takes 24–48 hours to process. Once verified, you have full access to live opportunities and your investor dashboard.
Browse the curated list of available opportunities. Each listing gives you the full picture: asset type and location, investment thesis and holding period, minimum investment amount, LLP structure details, fee breakdown, and exit options. When you’ve identified an opportunity that fits your goals and risk appetite, submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to indicate your intent to participate.
The EOI is not a final commitment — it reserves your allocation while the opportunity is being funded. You will receive the full suite of documents at this stage: the draft Partnership Agreement, asset legal summary, and all disclosures.
Before your funds move anywhere, you review and sign the Partnership Agreement for the specific LLP being created for your chosen asset. Once satisfied, you transfer your investment amount to the designated escrow bank account. Your funds are held securely in this ring-fenced account — not by the platform directly — until the opportunity reaches full funding and all pre-investment conditions are met.
If the opportunity does not reach its funding target within the stated period, your capital is returned to you without deduction.
Once fully funded, the dedicated LLP is formally constituted and registered. Your ownership stake — the percentage you hold in the LLP — is documented in the Partnership Agreement and reflected on your dashboard. The LLP then acquires the asset. Property title vests with the LLP. A dedicated Master Asset Manager (MAM) is formally appointed and takes over all operational responsibilities: leasing, maintenance, tenant management, compliance, and financial reporting.
From the moment your investment is live, everything is visible on your Rafcapital dashboard. Current asset status and performance updates, any income distributions received, important documents and reports, upcoming decisions requiring partner input, and your overall portfolio summary — all accessible from your phone or laptop, at any time, from anywhere in India or abroad.
The platform sends periodic reports on asset performance, occupancy (where applicable), and any material developments. You stay informed without needing to manage anything yourself.
Rafcapital investments have a defined lock-in period — typically outlined in the Partnership Agreement before you invest. After this period, three exit paths are available. Asset sale: if 76% or more of partners (by value) vote to sell the asset, it is professionally sold and proceeds are distributed proportionally. Private transfer: you can transfer your stake to a known buyer, facilitated by the platform with updated LLP documentation. Resale mechanism: you can list your holding on Rafcapital’s platform for other registered investors to purchase at the prevailing NAV.
Real assets are not designed for instant liquidity — exit timelines depend on market conditions and buyer availability. But the process is defined, documented, and professionally facilitated from the start.
