Tokenise and tap into a £3.5 trillion market to increase your property investment potential
The growth potential is staggering with a Property Market valued at £3.5 trillion and a Tokenised Market capitalisation of just £200 million.
These figures underline the transformative power of Real Estate Tokenisation and the opportunities it presents to investors and Property Management companies worldwide.
Overcoming the Future Challenges with Blockchain Tokenisation
Despite its immense global value, the Property Market is beset by many challenges that hinder its potential to reach a wider pool of investors.
Central to these challenges is the inherent illiquidity of property, which often ties up large amounts of capital, making it an unattainable investment option for smaller players.
The traditionally high cost of entry, compounded by the lack of viable fractionalisation solutions, has perpetuated a market that can feel exclusive and out of reach for most people.
In addition, legal hurdles surrounding property transactions, such as title disputes and zoning restrictions, make investing in property a complicated and often expensive proposition.
Top challenges for property owners and investors

- Real Estate assets can’t be quickly converted to cash without a significant loss in value.
- High Trading Expenses
-
- Description: steep agent commissions, appraisal fees and various other transaction costs.
- “Lumpiness” of Property Values

In recent years, blockchain technology has emerged as a revolutionary force in the Real Estate industry, offering compelling solutions to the sector's long-standing challenges.
Its decentralised nature, combined with secure smart contracts, makes it ideal for an industry that needs to improve transparency, efficiency, liquidity and access.
A prime example of the innovative potential of blockchain is Real Estate tokenisation, one of the most talked about phenomena in the Real Estate industry.
What are the Benefits of the Tokenisation of a Real Estate Property?
Real estate tokenisation represents a fundamental shift in the industry, offering a host of benefits that redefine traditional investment models.
One of its primary advantages is enhanced liquidity, allowing investors to trade smaller portions of properties.
This fractional ownership model not only boosts liquidity but also reduces barriers to entry, democratising access to real estate investments.
Moreover, tokenisation enables investors to diversify their portfolios across various assets, mitigating risks and optimising investment strategies.
By leveraging blockchain technology, transactions become streamlined and automated, cutting administrative costs and enhancing operational efficiency.
Additionally, Real Estate tokenisation fosters global accessibility, enabling investors worldwide to access diverse markets and opportunities.

How Does Real Estate Tokenisation Work?
Real Estate tokenisation is the process of converting the ownership rights of Real Estate, or associated Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs), into digital tokens on a blockchain.
This approach addresses common industry challenges by improving liquidity, simplifying accounting, facilitating cross-border settlement and offering fractional ownership of properties.
With properties or SPVs represented on the blockchain via tokens, the Real Estate market will gain unprecedented accessibility, efficiency and inclusivity, marking a decisive shift towards a more modern and innovative approach.
