Mansion Group

Mansion Group is a U.S.-based real estate & hospitality startup, founded in 2018 and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina. Originally established as a company offering short-term rentals and vacation-style lodging via its “Mansion Life” platform, the firm has since evolved to offer fractional real estate investing through its “Mansion Invest” program — enabling both retail and institutional investors to own shares in single-family homes that Mansion owns and operates.

Under the leadership of founder & CEO John Sutton, Mansion leverages technology and data-driven underwriting to purchase, renovate, and operate single-family homes at scale, targeting properties suitable for vacation-style or group-stay rentals. Their acquisition process blends AI-powered screening with hands-on evaluation to identify homes with strong rental upside, manage renovations, and maintain a consistent hospitality-style standard across properties.

With its fractional-ownership model, Mansion aims to democratize access to real-estate investing — allowing investors to participate in income-producing properties for relatively low entry amounts, rather than requiring large down payments or full property ownership. Through rental income and potential home-value appreciation, investors may receive quarterly dividends and long-term returns, while the company handles operations, maintenance, and guest management. As a private startup, Mansion does not publicly disclose historic IRR or AAR, so prospective investors must rely on the offering disclosures and their own analysis before investing.
