Alt.Estate Group is a financial technology company offering a new solution for real estate tokenization: the Protocol and the Platform.

The total value of world real estate reached $217 trillion in 2015 and is worth nearly 2.7 times the global GDP. This number includes only developed real estate, and would have been much larger had we counted the vast amount of undeveloped land around the globe.

Although the real estate market has plenty of opportunities for making big gains, investing in real estate is a lot more complicated than investing in stocks and bonds

Several major problems and barriers persist in real estate markets:

• High threshold for entry
• Lack of liquidity
• Slow and complicated process of ownership transfer
• Lack of price transparency
• Risks of fraud
• High transaction costs
• Complications of cross-border transactions

We bring innovation to real estate markets by implementing blockchain technology in the real estate marketplace and crowdfunding business models. Our goal is to promote blockchain and cryptocurrencies to the mass market by solving the traditional problems of investments in real estate.

Alt.Estate Platform is the marketplace for primary sales and secondary trading of tokenized assets. The Platform allows users to trade real estate in fractions with higher liquidity and lower costs.

This proect is the first tokenization project with a viable go-to-market strategy. Our offer to market players provides clear economic incentives to use and promote our Protocol using their marketing budgets.

The prototype of the project is already working in the us, Japan and EU markets, it is distinguished by a strong B2B business model with an income of$ 150 million for the first 3 years.

Alt.Estate Protocol covers the technology, corporate structure and legal compliance aspects of tokenization. The Protocol will be a turnkey solution for anyone who wants to tokenize real estate, from developers to individuals. The Protocol is well-positioned to become the new standard of the industry.

Crypto investors will benefit from:

• Access to real estate investment directly without leaving the crypto universe
• New diversification opportunities between crypto and fiat exposure, which are especially in demand during downturns in pure crypto markets
• The opportunity to buy real estate for personal use directly with cryptocurrency without conversion costs and access to foreign markets

Traditional investors will benefit from:

• Access to a new class of asset previously unavailable to most of the population; the minimum investment threshold for investors is significantly decreased, democratizing the entire real estate investing market
• Higher liquidity and price transparency, as tokenized assets are easily exchangeable and property tokens can be traded on our user-friendly Platform or anywhere else
• Using jurisdiction-agnostic property tokens, enabling cross-border transactions and allowing people to purchase real estate in other regions beyond their domestic jurisdictions
• Having a public market for every real estate property, which makes market pricing transparent and reduces information asymmetry between professional and retail market participants
• Registering all transactions in single public blockchain, which will eliminate fraud and unintentional accidents related to conflicting ownership registries
• The ability to easily buy and sell properties in pieces, which will not only make the market more liquid and efficient, but will also unlock entirely new possibilities for real estate owners; for example, borrowing money on the open market using only a portion of their real estate as collateral
• The opportunity to diversify their portfolio, not only between different classes of assets but also within the real estate asset class; better diversification provides higher returns at the same level of risk
