You need to be much more specific. Are you talking about REITs, REIGs, passive real estate partnerships, private real estate funds, on-line real estate crowdfunding, or something else? These are all examples (there are also others) of pooling money to buy real estate.
It sounds as if it might depend on your home country jurisdiction and the investment jurisdiction. Then again, I am subject to FATCA (not CRS) so I could be way off base.
