Further Developments in the Use of the Block Chain and Cryptocurrency in Real Estate Transactions

A September 10, 2019 article by WGCU/NPR entitled “For This South Florida Investor, The Future Of Real Estate Is Through Cryptocurrencies” addressed a new real estate investment vehicle based upon the block chain. 1 That article describes RealT, which currently offers ownership interests in rental properties in Michigan, with expansion plans for Atlanta and South Florida.

One matter which ‘jumps out’ from RealT’s homepage is the very small entry investment, which currently shows as low as $63.75.2 The RealT website itself is useful given the amount of resources appended to it. Those resources should be studied carefully – with the assistance of properly qualified and licensed advisors – before committing to any investment.3 The interview of RealT’s Florida-based CEO is also worth a read-through regarding his perspectives on Bitcoin.

Just today the writer of this blog piece saw a Bitcoin ATM in a Gainesville gasoline station.

One snippet to note is that article’s reference to Bitcoin ATM machines. Just today the writer of this blog piece saw a Bitcoin ATM in a Gainesville gasoline station. So…The scope of Bitcoin is indeed expanding.

More to follow as more follows.
