Tokenisation, as defined by ConsenSys, refers to "the digitalisation of securities, alternative assets and financial instruments." In simpler terms, it means breaking a building into many digital pieces, which can then be bought and sold. This allows people to share ownership of a property through digital tokens instead of traditional ownership models.
Experience real estate made easy.
While tokenisation offers innovative opportunities for real estate investment, Bricksave takes a more traditional yet simplified approach. Instead of using tokens, Bricksave provides direct co-ownership of properties through shares in a legal entity—typically an LLC—that owns the property. This method is less tech-dependent and carries less risk, making it easier for those who prefer a more hands-off investment experience.
Direct Co-Ownership vs. Tokenisation:
Bricksave allows investors to own a share of the LLC, meaning they are legally connected to the property. On the other hand, tokenisation breaks the property into shares and sells them digitally, giving token owners rights to the asset.
Middlemen:
Tokenisation removes the need for intermediaries like real estate agents or banks, thus streamlining transactions and enhancing liquidity. Bricksave’s model, while offering simplicity, still operates through a more traditional, regulated structure.
Cryptocurrency Use:
Tokenisation often integrates cryptocurrencies, which Bricksave’s co-ownership model does not currently include.
Despite these differences, both models aim to make real estate investment more accessible to a broader audience. Depending on your investment style, both approaches offer unique advantages—allowing you to diversify your portfolio with either method.
Tokenisation comes with its own set of challenges, especially when navigating global regulations. Different jurisdictions have varying laws regarding tokens and blockchain, making some regions riskier for such investments.
However, in Colombia, the government has been actively working towards integrating blockchain and tokenisation into the financial and real estate sectors. As highlighted in Forbes, the Colombian government is striving to ensure compliance with local laws, creating a more secure environment for tokenised investments.
