Harrison Street Interval Fund Auction Clears 91% of Shares on LODAS
LODAS Markets and Nasdaq Fund Secondaries completed their first interval fund auction, selling 91% of Harrison Street real estate shares to secondary buyers.
LODAS Markets and Nasdaq Private Market's Nasdaq Fund Secondaries unit have completed what they describe as their first interval fund auction, moving 91% of shares offered in the Harrison Street Real Estate Fund (ticker: VCMIX) to secondary buyers, the companies announced October 2, 2026.
The auction marks a notable milestone in the effort to create more liquidity options for investors in interval funds, a category of investment vehicle that limits redemption windows and has historically been difficult to exit outside of scheduled repurchase periods. By routing shares through a structured secondary marketplace, sellers gained an alternative path to liquidity without waiting for the fund's next redemption cycle.
