VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — addy Technology Corp. (“addy”), a leading real estate technology company in Canada, today announced that Scott McGillivray Real Estate Trust II* has joined and licenced the addy platform as an Issuer. This partnership marks a groundbreaking moment as the first fund on the platform, providing Canadians with unprecedented access to invest alongside one of the nation’s leading real estate experts.
Scott McGillivray Real Estate Trust II, which will invest in the Scott McGillivray Real Estate Fund II, is spearheaded by real estate investor and TV personality Scott McGillivray. It will utilize addy’s cutting-edge addy Business software to manage and raise capital for its real estate opportunities.

With the addy Business software, the $50,000 investment minimum is reduced to $1.
The opportunity to participate in the Scott McGillivray Real Estate Trust II consists of potentially 3 to 5 off-market residential development properties, which will be sold as condos or purpose-built rentals in major Canadian markets.
“We are excited to partner with addy, and leverage their innovative platform to enable Canadians to invest alongside us,” said Scott McGillivray, Founding Partner, Scott McGillivray Real Estate Trust II. “This partnership represents a significant step in our mission to make real estate investment opportunities accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial standing.
