Stacking and Laddering: Two Simple Strategies Connect Invest Clients Are Using to Build Real Wealth

Whether you’re focused on flexibility or consistency, these two approaches help make your money work smarter.

 

 

When it comes to growing your wealth, it’s not just where you invest — it’s how you structure those investments.

 

At Connect Invest, we make it easy for investors to earn fixed monthly returns backed by real estate. But savvy investors are going one step further: they’re using stacking and laddering strategies to multiply their results and match their goals.

 

These aren’t complicated Wall Street tricks — they’re simple, smart methods you can use right now to take control of your financial future.

 

 

🔁 What is Stacking?

 

Stacking is a flexible approach to investing. You simply add new Connect Invest Notes whenever you have funds available.

 

Think:

  • A Note from your emergency fund savings
  • Another from your tax refund
  • One tied to a year-end bonus
  • Or a long-term Note earmarked for retirement

 

There’s no strict timing strategy. It’s just about putting different buckets of money to work when they’re ready.

 

Example:

“I opened my first Note with $2,000 from savings. A few months later, I added another with my tax return. I love that I can keep stacking them without having to commit all at once.”

— Amanda C., teacher and first-time investor

 

With stacking, your portfolio grows organically — and your money doesn’t sit idle in a bank account earning less than 1%.

 

 

📆 What is Laddering?

 

Laddering is more strategic. You invest in Notes with different term lengths — like 6, 12, or 24 months — so your principal comes back on a regular, staggered schedule.

 

This gives you:

✔️ Consistent reinvestment opportunities

✔️ Reliable cash flow

✔️ More flexibility than locking all your funds at once

 

Example:

“I laddered $10,000 into a 6-month, 12-month, and 24-month Note. Now I have money maturing every few months, which makes it easy to reinvest or use as needed. It’s like creating my own income stream.”

— Carlos M., self-employed consultant

 

Think of laddering like planting seeds at different times — you’ll always have something ready to harvest.

 

 

💡 Smart Clients Use Both

 

Some investors use stacking to get started quickly and laddering to build a system that keeps their money in motion.

 

Example:

“At first, I just stacked a few Notes whenever I had extra cash. But now I’ve built a full ladder so I have income hitting every quarter. It’s predictable, steady, and totally passive.”

— Debbie R., semi-retired nurse
