HOW DENHOLTZ ASSOCIATES TRANSFORMED THEIR FUNDRAISING
PROCESS USING CROWDSTREET SPONSOR DIRECT
ABOUT DENHOLTZ
Denholtz Associates operates a diverse portfolio of office and industrial properties encompassing 30
properties across five states, more than 700 tenants, and almost 5 million square feet total. Since its inception
in 1954, Denholtz Associates has grown into a highly experienced developer and a prolific real estate
syndicator, maintaining an active high-net-worth investor network of over 500 investors.
THE PROBLEM: The In-house Solution
Denholtz utilized a homegrown technology solution for investor relationship based on their existing Yardi
Systems property management system. However, they soon found Yardi lacked recording options for
investor-specific data including investor preferences, broker referrals, transfers, and historical distributions,
and frequently struggled to meet Denholtz reporting needs. To solve for this, they started developing their
own system using an Access database.
The problem with their in-house solution was it required manual effort to solicit and promote investment
offerings. The total transaction timeline required approximately two months from start to close, and
accounted for a full 40% of the IRM teams workload. With so much time dedicated to transaction
management, Denholtz IRM staff had limited time for investor management and outreach efforts.
THE SOLUTION: CrowdStreet Sponsor Direct
Denholz needed one platform to accelerate their fundraising process and improve ongoing investor
reporting and document management. They also needed a solution to easily integrate with their existing
systems and market to their pool of investors.

PLATFORM
Publishing Platform
Investor Room
Transaction Center
Management Portal
Using the CrowdStreet
Publishing Platform, sponsors
can create high-quality
offering pages.
Collecting offers and closing
documents doesnt have
to be a painful and
time-consuming process.
The CrowdStreet Management
Portal is the sponsors unified
command center.
The Investor Room is each
investors personal
control panel.
CrowdStreet Sponsor Direct enabled a
reduction in our closing timelines.

CUSTOMER STORY / DENHOLZ ASSOCIATES 2
THE RESULTS: Immediate Success
Using CrowdStreet Sponsor Directs integrated import tool, Denholtz
was able to immediately import 450 investors across 30 active projects.
Each investor was automatically sent an email notifying them of the new
platform and inviting them to login. At login, each investor was greeted
with a custom My Investments page; listing each of their existing
Denholtz property investments along with project updates,
performance metrics and charting, and downloadable documents
including K-1s.
Sponsor Direct has significantly streamlined the Denholtz investment
process. The process from solicitation to funding used to take two
months to complete; with Sponsor Direct, it can now be completed in as
little as 24 hours. The impact on the IRM teams workload has been
similarly significant. Transaction processing that used to occupy 40% of
the IRM teams time, now requires less than 20%.
Denholtz IR manager reported Sponsor Direct has increased the
overall efficiency of our IRM team by at least 30%. We now have
significantly more time to focus on high-value efforts like investor
outreach and support.

BONUS: The Rewards of Integrated Fundraising & IRM
In addition to improvements in the speed and efficiency of capital raising, Denholtz found CrowdStreet
Sponsor Direct a powerful tool for streamlining the rollover of existing investors into new investments.
It was this ability to seamlessly connect existing investors with new investment opportunities that was a
game-changer for the company. Denholtz has previously looked at a number of standalone IRM solutions,
while these solutions provided good post-funding management options, no other solution offered
CrowdStreets unique ability to manage investors through every stage of the investment process, from
solicitation, offer acceptance and transaction management, to ongoing reporting & communications,
ultimate sale of the property and finally re-investment.
Sponsor Direct has
increased the
efficiency of our
IRM team by more
than 30%.
