For those who've heard of real estate tokenization but always wondered how it works –  here we outline a step-by-step process! 👇🏼

Nuance aside, #tokenization of real estate broadly involves 4 steps:

1️⃣ Asset selection and evaluation:

Identifying the property and performing any necessary due diligence, including legal and financial assessment, valuation of the real estate asset, and a compliance review complete with any jurisdictional considerations.

2️⃣ Legal structure setup:

Setting up the appropriate legal framework and defining ownership rights, investor privileges, and regulatory requirements, including any compliance requirements for tokenized securities.

3️⃣ Token creation and platform integration:

Selecting an appropriate #blockchain plus any issuance or trading platforms as needed. Things to consider include fee considerations, the complexity of token creation and management, wallet systems, KYCL/AML procedures, and other factors relating to your unique business needs.

4️⃣ Token distribution and management:

Creating the real estate asset through an initial token offering. Once a real estate asset exists onchain, it can also be traded in secondary markets. From there, the focus will be on ongoing property management, dividend distribution, and compliance.

Tokenization of any #RWA is a complex process with technical, legal, financial, and functional implications. Depending on what blockchain you choose, it's going to look a little different (if you're using Polymesh, you won't be as reliant on #SmartContracts).

Issuers also need to consider what makes sense for the legal setup. Some may look to copy traditional #RealEstateInvesting and use a Special Purpose Vehicle or #SPV to isolate financial risk.
