Founded in 2023 by Maxime Parpex and Nathan Zappelli, two real estate private equity professionals, Wally offers a club-deal investment platform with no minimum entry ticket. This approach democratizes access to segments previously reserved for institutional investors, such as hospitality, extended-stay hotels, and coliving.
Wally targets a new generation of individual investors seeking profitable and accessible opportunities. Target annual returns range from 7% to 15%, with quarterly distributed income and potential capital gains at the end of the investment period. Fully digitalized, the platform manages the entire value chain, from opportunity sourcing to asset management.
Since its launch, Wally has attracted over 6,000 investors and 200 wealth management advisors. These advisors benefit from a dedicated platform tailored to their clients’ needs. In less than two years, the startup has financed €2 million in operations and reduced fundraising times tenfold.
With a €1.7 million fundraising round, supplemented by €600,000 in bank loans, Wally aims to acquire over €50 million in real estate assets by 2025. The company also plans to hire 10 additional team members to strengthen its tech, sales, and real estate departments and develop new services tailored to investors’ needs.
By meeting the expectations of micro-investors, Wally positions club-deals as a key investment solution in a transforming real estate sector.
