Black Founder Davonne Reaves Makes
History, Raises $2.7M for
Her Platform That is
Rewriting the Rules of Real Estate

In an industry historically closed off to everyday investors, Davonne Reaves, a former hotel front desk agent who became one of the youngest Black women in the United States to co-own a major hotel franchise, is making real estate ownership—especially hotel ownership—more accessible than ever. Her journey—from front desk to fintech founder—has become a blueprint for breaking barriers in commercial real estate ownership.

Her platform, Vesterr, the first Black-owned and woman-owned regulated crowdfunding portal dedicated to commercial real estate and hotels, has surpassed $2.7 million raised since its 2022 launch. Those funds have contributed to two hotel acquisitions, a hotel development in Puerto Rico, a hotel fund, and a car wash development, demonstrating the transformative power of democratized capital.
