Editor's note: This article was first published in 2023 to announce Covercy's Funds capability. We've expanded and refreshed it for Covercy One — the all-in-one investment management platform for real estate GPs — to reflect how launching and running a fund works today: automated distributions on built-in banking, richer share-class and promote structures, and the fund-of-funds visibility your investors now get inside the portal.
Launching Funds
With a Fund on Covercy One, a general partner (GP) can invest across multiple assets — and even into other funds — under a single structure, with one source of truth for capital, documents, and investor relations. Whether you run a closed-ended vehicle or an evergreen one, the fund becomes the home for everything your limited partners (LPs) need to see. Here's what's changed since we first introduced Funds.
Manage: automated capital calls and distributions
For most fund managers, capital calls and distributions still mean spreadsheets, manual waterfall math, and wire instructions sent over email — slow, repetitive, and easy to get wrong.
Covercy One runs the whole flow in one place. Calculate pro-rata or hurdle-based allocations, send notices, execute payouts, and reconcile — without leaving the platform. Because banking is built in rather than bolted on, a distribution moves from plan to paid on Covercy's own rails, and the books close themselves as payments settle.
What used to be an afternoon of reconciliation becomes a single workflow — and your LPs see every distribution, in real time, in their portal.
Simplify: even the most complex structures
Co-investments, multiple share classes, preferred returns, and GP promote — model them once and let the platform do the math. Configure a preferred return rate and day-count convention per share class, and Covercy One accrues the pref and calculates promote and waterfall tiers automatically when you distribute. The structure lives in the platform, not in a fragile spreadsheet only one person understands.
