Growth vs Income:
Which is Right For You?

Diversify with a mix of both Growth and Income Investments

National Diversified Funds

Our flagship Growth Fund helps you achieve real estate investing diversification and more without the need for active portfolio management with a target IRR of 16-20%.

We target $10-15M into 8-15 projects, with checks in individual projects ranging from $250K to $3M. This amount enables us to get exclusive access to premium projects and often receive better terms than small investors.

Medium Term Income Funds

Our Medium-Term Income Fund (MTI) provides investors with 11-13% annual return compared to CDs, depending on assets invested with Ironton Capital, only varies with AUM (underlying is fixed.) Dividends paid quarterly with some liquidity given advance notice.

MTI is a great option for investors wanting further diversification that is completely uncorrelated with real estate or the stock market. as the fund itself is diversified across 25,000+ individual medical invoices.

Short Term Income Funds

Our Short Term Income Fund (STI) is a great opportunity for our investors to have a short term or rainy day cash reserve option.

It provides investors with significantly higher income, 8-9% annual return (varies with underlying performance and AUM), compared to money markets with a good level of liquidity. Dividends paid quarterly.

STI is also taxed at the lower REIT tax rate (20% at federal level), consult your CPA.

Diversification is Key to Our Performance

Diversification is key to mitigating risk and maximizing performance. We find the projects and handle the diversification so you don’t have to, deploying over $100M in capital since 2024.

Although I still am an active investor, I’ve significantly reduced the amount of work by investing passively with Ironton Capital.

Normally if everything is going well, I don’t have too many hours to work in the month, BUT In the last 15 months I had 4 tenants non renew their leases and the first property had a long term tenant in it so it needed a complete remodel – even for renting. We remodeled the entire house and it turned out so nice we elected to sell it and invest passively with Ironton.

Then the 2nd property came up and it was a longer distance rental, which was more of a hassle so we decided to see it as well. Then the 3rd…..sold it.

Overall, I spent about 15 months working on properties non stop, so it feels good to have time back with the now passive investments. Ironton made it really easy to invest with and they provide such great information about investing, the market and updates.

Owning more rentals has no appeal to us. After 20 years of owning rentals, being a landlord, maintenance person, rent collector, we had enough. We tried the REIT’s trail, without having any say in where they invested our funds, no great luck. We are at the stage in our lives to say, show us something better. We came on board with Lon over 10 years ago, the whole experience has been amazing. Lon actually sat down with us and looked at our rentals and gave us a concise report of our options. We first were approached about the NDF 5 fund, and Short term fund. At last, a great diversified plan that had an amazing team at the helm. After 2 years we could not be happier. Thanks Lon for sharing your knowledge of investing with us. Sincerely, Don and Vanessa

Ironton Capital has played a significant role in my personal financial goals to move further toward a sustainable passive income stream. I had set a goal years ago of how much I wanted to generate in passive income from equity produced by my hard work as the owner of a small business for 13 years. Until Lon reached out to me with the opportunities with Ironton Capital, I thought that I would have to create this income from the real estate portfolio I had developed. As the market got more and more difficult for me to accomplish this, I was seeking an alternative but without finding a viable option where I also felt comfortable with the hands I was putting my equity in. It was as I had chosen to liquidate almost all of my portfolio that Lon reached out with the opportunities Ironton Capital was pursuing.

Based on the projected returns on the National Diversified Funds as well as periodic cash flows generated by the Short and Mid Term Funds, I’ve been able to establish a profile of investments that is anticipated to outperform my original goals. This relationship has allowed me to move from active to passive income, to be able to create a life in another country and to have my hard-earned money in what I experience as extremely capable hands and to move on to a new chapter in my life.

I have had the pleasure of working with three Principals of Ironton Capital for over a decade plus, in multiple capacities. My current relationship with Ironton Capital has been nothing short of fantastic. Their care, attention to detail, and drive to bring their clients amazing deals and returns is unmatched. I cannot recommend this group enough. If you are looking for open, honest, transparent dealings in a space that can, at times, be murky; this group is it! Thank you Ironton Capital for all of the hard work!

With over 35 years of experience in property development and real estate investing, I highly recommend the team at Ironton Capital! After following their progress for almost 2 years and thoroughly evaluating several of their investment opportunities, I made the decision to invest with them personally. I truly appreciate their diversified approach to real estate investing, which sets them apart.

At this point in my career, it’s refreshing to take a more passive role while still building my net worth through strategic investments. I’ve also introduced numerous investors to the team with complete confidence. If you’re looking for a reliable and forward-thinking investment partner, I encourage you to check them out—you won’t be disappointed!

Investing with Ironton Capital provided my husband and I with an unmatched level of confidence and ease after undergoing thorough due diligence with Ironton management, tax professionals, our financial advisors, as well as, running comparative investment analysis.

The National Diversified Fund (NDF) provides us access to a geographically and sector diverse real estate portfolio that is carefully curated given well-defined investment parameters, targeted sub-markets and established development partners.

Relative to other bespoke, privately offered real estate funds, the structure, transparency and modest approach of NDF is well-suited for investors that have the capital to put at risk, but are perhaps newer to the investment class.

I have known Lon Welsh for 15 years. He and his companies have a fantastic track record of doing what they say they are going to do. And when inevitable issues arise, he and his team communicate quickly and transparently. I always feel like Lon and Ironton have my back. We have attended on site due diligence with Lon and his team on a handful of projects and have been impressed by the depth of their due diligence, as well as their track record of selecting sponsors with strong, long, and consistent track records of providing favorable and reliable investment returns. We are in the process of selling several single family rental houses that we own in metro Denver and plan to invest much of the proceeds in Ironton. We believe the internal rates of returns will be materially higher than single family rental returns in metro Denver – without the hassles of being a landlord.

I have known and had the pleasure of working with Lon for many years.

Lon’s approach to investing in real estate and other business ventures has always been very thoughtful, analytical, and deliberate.

Lon takes the time to really understand what he is looking at in a particular deal and thinks it through from multiple angles. He invests based on principals and a proven methodology while maintaining a very grounded approach to his analysis.

Lon’s investment platform takes a very unique approach to identifying and underwriting investment opportunities based on historical analysis and proven modeling techniques.

Before Ironton, the performance of my retirement assets had been inconsistent at best even under professional management. Their transparency of the investments were difficult to evaluate. Since moving a portion of my retirement into the Ironton Funds, I have received consistent updates and have confidence in their future performance.

I believe I have moved my money from and unpredictable market subject to many economic factors and significant risk, to a fundamentally sound business model that is a hedge against inflation. I have confidence in the leadership/management team at Ironton and would recommend their funds to family and friends with confidence.

Just had a great experience with Ironton Capital! From the get-go, the team was super friendly and really listened to what I wanted. They helped me figure out the best options without any pressure.

I loved how they explained everything in a way that made sense, so I actually learned a lot along the way. It felt more like working with friends than a typical financial service.

If you need help with investments, I definitely recommend checking them out!

Although real estate investing can be a lucrative and rewarding venture, it comes with its own set of risks. When considering my personal investment options, I have placed a strong emphasis on the relationships and trust within those relationships.

I chose to invest with Ironton Capital not only because of the potentially strong returns they offer, but also because of the collective expertise and experience of the founders. Their track record of making sound, responsible investment decisions gave me the confidence and conviction to invest in the fund.

It is clear that the founders of Ironton have the knowledge and expertise to make informed, strategic decisions with my capital, while also prioritizing safety and responsibility.

I started my investment journey with Ironton about 2 years ago and couldn’t be happier. They have helped me to grow my portfolio with strong, diversified investments that make sense for me. Their clear and concise quarterly reports help me to quickly know how my investments are doing. An added bonus is how they keep their investing community engaged with educational webinars.

We all know that interpreting current market conditions and determining where to invest is incredibly challenging in this environment right now. Over the last several years, I have had the honor of watching Lon Welsh masterfully navigate the current, and previous real estate markets, with great precision. I have always been ready to invest in Ironton Capital funds.

If you are not familiar with the %22mind of Lon%22 then you may not have a true appreciation for his intellect and freakish ability to understand and analyze real estate deals. Lon has surrounded himself with a great team of like minded experienced investors that know where and when to direct funds for maximum gain. My greatest regret is that I don’t have more funds to invest in the upcoming Ironton funds!
