Filed March 31, 2025
File No. 024-12552
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Groundfloor Loans 2 LLC
(the “Company” or “Groundfloor Loans 2”), we hereby provide responses to the comments
received from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
set forth in the comment letter dated April 25, 2025 (the “Comment Letter”) with respect to the above-referenced
draft Amended Offering Statement on Form 1-A filed by the Company on March 31, 2025 (the “Offering Statement”).
Concurrently with the filing of this letter, the
Company is filing, through the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (“EDGAR”)
system, a second amendment to the Amended Offering Statement (the “Second Amended Offering Statement”) with
the Commission, responding to the Staff’s comments in the Comment Letter and updating the Offering Statement.
The headings and paragraph numbers in this letter
correspond to those contained in the Comment Letter and, to facilitate the Staff’s review, we have reproduced the text of the Staff’s
comments in bold and italics below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Offering Statement.
All references to page numbers and captions (other than those in the Staff’s comments and unless otherwise stated) correspond
to the page numbers and captions in the Offering Statement.
Amended Offering Statement on Form 1-A
General
1. We note your response to prior comment 13 and the revisions to your disclosure regarding your flywheel portfolio. We also note
that you continue to include disclosure on your website regarding targeted returns including a statement that investors can "Sit
back and relax as your money hits the target rate of 10%". Please explain the basis for these targeted returns and the annualized
return on investment for Groundfloor Loans 1 LLC on page A-7 and revise your disclosure for consistency.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the
disclosure on page A-7 and made corresponding edits to the disclosure on the website.

2. We note your response to prior comment 2 and your disclosure on page vii that the Flywheel Portfolio is the marketing name
for this REIT. It remains unclear how the materials on your website relating to the Flywheel portfolio offering comply with Rule 255.
As examples: the required statements under Rule 255(b) appear to apply to LROs and not the securities being offered in this
offering; and you do not appear to have provided a URL where the preliminary offering statement was filed or identified from whom a copy
of the most recent version of the preliminary offering statement may be obtained. Also, you have not filed the materials used under the
authorization of Rule 255 as exhibit 13 under Item 17 of Form 1-A. Please revise.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company respectfully
advises the Staff that the Company’s Sponsor has revised the Groundfloor website to apply the required statements under Rule 255(b) more
broadly to securities offered on the website, including the securities offered in this offering and to provide a link to the preliminary
offering statement. The Company further advises the Staff that a representative set of “testing the waters” materials that
rely upon Rule 255 has been filed as exhibit 13.
Prior Performance Summary, page 45
3. Please expand your disclosure in this section to address Groundfloor Loans 1 LLC, as requested in prior comment 1. Also, please
clarify why you appear to have provided two sets of prior performance tables for Groundfloor Finance Inc. on pages A-5 and A-7.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosures within the Prior Performance Summary to address Groundfloor
Loans 1. The Company further advises the staff that the prior performance tables for Groundfloor Finance Inc. were provided on both a
consolidated and unconsolidated basis; for clarity, the Company has removed the consolidated tables.
Appendix A: Prior Performance Tables
Table III - Annual Operating Results of Prior Real Estate Programs,
page A-1
4. Please revise your annual operating results of prior programs (e.g. Groundfloor Finance Inc., Groundfloor Real Estate 1, LLC,
and Groundfloor Loans 1, LLC) to reflect the financial information as presented in the audited financial statements for each entity and
for each respective period, or advise.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the annual operating results of the prior programs in Table III.

Exhibits
5. We note your response to prior comment 11. Please revise your legal opinion filed as Exhibit 12.1 to opine clearly whether
purchasers of the securities will have any obligation to make payments to the registrant or its creditors (other than the purchase price
for the securities) or contributions to the registrant or its creditors solely by reason of the purchasers' ownership of the securities.
Refer to Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 for guidance.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the legal opinion has been revised.
We hope that the foregoing has been responsive
to the Staff’s comments and look forward to resolving any outstanding issues as quickly as possible. Please direct any questions
or comments regarding the foregoing to me at 415-395-8019 (office direct) or zachary.fallon@lw.com.
Very truly yours,
