Our Story

Learn about YieldWink

Yieldwink is redefining private investment access, offering direct investment opportunities in real estate, businesses, and loans. As the alternative investment market surges toward $17 trillion by 2025, Yieldwink aims to provide direct, intermediary-free investments. Unlike the realm of robo-advisors that has transformed stock market investments, access to alternative investments has remained largely unevolved. Recognizing this ‘access’ gap after consulting financial advisors for seven years, our founder, Jesse Khera, established Yieldwink to fulfill the critical need for direct, intermediary-free investment channels. The Yieldwink team co-invests in all offerings on the platform. This commitment aligns our interests directly with our investors'. We source and underwrite our own investments, maintaining strict control over all offerings to ensure the highest integrity and quality. At Yieldwink, we don’t just facilitate; we invest alongside you.

Jesse Khera
Founder, CEO
Jasdeep (Jesse) Khera is the founder of Yieldwink, where he leads fundraising, deal origination, and property development. Previously a VP at a $2B private credit firm based in New York, he has advised over 10,000 financial advisors throughout the US on alternative investments. He has also been an Advisor Consultant at a privately held $200B mutual fund firm and has experience in actuarial-risk sales at a Fortune 500 company. As a financial wholesaler, Jesse realized there must be a more efficient way for investors to access alternative investments, and the inefficiencies he witnessed served as the catalyst to create a new type of investment platform—Yieldwink. An expert real estate investor, he designed a proprietary model for identifying and valuing investment properties anywhere in the US, urban or rural. Mr. Khera earned a degree in Economics at The City College of New York and currently resides in Astoria, New York. Jesse is also the founder of an alternative investment firm, Goldsher Group. In his spare time, he enjoys reading non-fiction, boxing, chess, world war history, and his Shiba Inu, Coconut. He enjoys fishing (learned from his time in Minnesota) and golf (from his time in Georgia). He is still making an effort to earn a golf score below 100.
