Democratizing Global Real Estate Investing. How blockchain is transforming global Real Estate Investing.

Real estate investing can be challenging enough domestically, add a few thousand miles and a border and it becomes a nightmare. The red tape and complexity of this process prohibits most investors from ever entering the $32 trillion opportunity of investing in US real estate. Today only 400 billion flows in from international investment, which might seem high, but when you consider how large the market is and how much wealth is being generated every year it’s only scratching the surface.

As global wealth continues to increase, more and more investors are putting their money into safer investments like real estate. The reality is that investors are looking for Countries with the most stable markets, which means that most everyone is trying to invest in the United States. While these investors come from all over the globe a majority are coming out of Asia, mostly due to the massive amount of wealth accumulation and growing middle class.

To put this in perspective private wealth ( 2016–2017) grew by 10.3% in the US, 10.3% in Africa, 7.8% in Europe, and a whopping 14.8% in Asia-Pacific. The trends show that Asia is leading in growth and wealth accumulation, and will for some time. Cedric Chehab of MBI research said it best.
“By 2030, Asia will account for the largest share of global GDP at around 40 percent. China will account for approximately half of that, and will be roughly on par with North America and Europe.”

Many countries have restrictions on foreign ownership of property-for example foreigners can not own real estate in the Philippines unless it's a condo or subdivision set up as a condo and providing that foreign ownership does not exceed a certain percentage of the total, you can lease though. This is just one example. Transactions using bitcoin etc will be no different. There are plenty of countries that welcome foreign ownership, the UK for example especially London which has a very large amount of higher end properties owned by oligarchs etc.
Some countries even offer residency and citizenship through investment in properties. 

In developing countries. And it was launched on the international trading floor. Other countries are also given economic incentives. To promote sustainable relationships and many more later. And this is also really good for countries with ideas beyond their own.

Do you know, that in Russia no restrictions for the purchase of housing by foreigners? – To buy the Real Estate can people from all countries and without citizenship.
Russia today, the fast developing country in cryptocurrency systems.

Often the problem for buying a property is the lack of free money. Recently I saw a new online project that allows you to pay a deposit for real estate in the crypto currency and reserve it. An interesting mechanism.
