The largest online property management service platform in the world? This is a joke? This is just an idea. In words it's easy to be "the greatest" =)) You have to be realistic and look at real achievements, not words about the future of greatness.

Imagine that you have access to complete information about real estate for buying, selling or renting anywhere in the world. Roll Eyes This will be possible thanks to the Big Data Urbit system.

I impressived with your project fans number and your score on Icobench, your project get very high score on all ICO review website
Good work men

That is a really great concept explained clearly. Its a really good pleasure to know that the team has a clear vision about the objectives

Wow!!   This is so great!! This is very revolutionizing! and this will surely succeed! Hope you, guys succeed for the ICO.. I am looking forward to it. 😉

This is a real estate project that attracts a lot of brokers. This project is great, I think there will be many investors involved in the project team. This project is likely to succeed in the future as it is of interest to many investors, I think so

  Real Estate shouldn’t be a complicated business to invest in. In today’s post you will find out how easy it is to get into it through Urbit Data’s ecosystem.

  Real Estate is technically everywhere, whether you’re on the college’s campus or the neighborhood, you will find a potential property that might (or not) catch your attention. Unfortunately, that’s the moment where things get complicated, as you find out things weren’t as smooth as they looked like.
  Experienced investors already know just how complex things can get when dealing with the industry of property, but beyond that, there are many inconsistencies with Real Estate, such as:
   The need of intermediaries. Trusting your assets to a third-party individual is perhaps one of the main issues Real Estate has today. Done wrong, you'll end up losing more than you’ve actually earned. But even if you manage to find a trustworthy prospect, it is very likely to come with high prices.
   Inconsistent regulatory requirements. Another big trouble about Real Estate is the lack of consistent information out there, due to the different requirements of each zone. This leads to confusion about what is standard and what is not.
   Low trading frequency due to high costs. Due to high costs for each transaction, Real Estate often dissuades newcomers to try get into it. Property is a powerful asset, but intermediaries and extra fees can be too much for an investor’s wallet.
   Lack of transparency. When dealing with business that require third-parties, there’s room for fraud. Information can be altered, fees increased to ensure and the list just goes on. Furthermore, investors are forced to pay higher fees just to ensure their procedures carry out transparently.
   Seeing the big picture, it is evident that Real Estate needs a tool to turn things around and get back on track. Luckily, Urbit Data comes along with an innovative solution to all these issues.
   With the addition of Blockchain in the process, things escalate to a whole different level in terms of transparency, agility, costs and research value.
   Blockchain is transparent. Thanks to the qualities of this open source, every aspect of real estate will have a mark of transparency in the process. From research to payments, Blockchain becomes a transparent intermediary of the whole process; involving buying, selling, price valuations and renting.
   A valuable ecosystem of data. With the addition of encrypted blocks, information will be verified by a team of professionals in the matter, which further increases the accuracy and credibility of data. Long gone will be those days of messy data spread across the internet.
   Profitable and worth. Inside Urbit’s hub, every single asset will have a true value: no more speculation, overpricing and unnecessary intermediaries. It doesn’t matter in which position of Real Estate you are (investor, entrepreneur or researcher), every detail will be covered for you to access.
  Fraud-proof. Blockchain proves to be an excellent shield from fraudulent activities, due to the characteristics of each block. Once data is in the Blockchain, it’s almost impossible to modify or tamper it.
    Electronic payments are safter. Cryptocurrencies are as safe as they can be, leaving no room for frauds and scams. Their behavior is as strong as a solid, impenetrable brick.
   Real Estate is the ultimate choice for those who seek for profit, both in short and long term. With Blockchain as a middleman, there’s no telling how much business will grow. You better start paying attention to what Urbit Data’s about to launch out there; an unique ecosystem aiming for success in the market!

   Urbit Data arrives to the ICO world with a proposal that wants to innovate the real estate market using the benefits of the blockchain technology. Its goal is to create a platform that allows a clear and transparent online process for the valuation, purchase, sale and rental of properties. In order to achieve this, Urbit Data has created a client section that will consist of a set of desktop and mobile applications that will make easier the interaction of the platform. All applications will have a free version created for individual customers and a business version designed to banks, real estate companies and franchises.
   The client section components have 3 principal functions: Act as a participant to verify and sign transactions within the blockchain, collect the information needed to feed the big data warehouse and provide final users with ways to interact with the services offered by the Urbit Data platform. Each of these functions will be implemented as a separate application but will be integrated in order to work as a real estate suite where information can be exchanged.

Urbit Data Finder
The Urbit Data Finder will be the main application for data collection. The actions or resources that users contribute from this application will be based on a rewards system in URB Coins depending on the activity that each user performs.

Urbit Data Finder Free
Urbit Data Finder Free is for individuals to access data and to participate in the construction and maintenance of blockchain and Big Data.

Urbit Data Finder for Business
It is designed for companies or organizations involved in the real estate sector that can provide large amounts of valid data to the platform. It has the same goal as the free version, but it has much more sophisticated data integration and data validation tools.

Urbit Data Value
It will allow users to take advantage of all the information available in the blockchain and the warehouse in order to generate precise valuations of their properties, both at a private level or at a business level.

Urbit Data Value Free
Urbit Data Value Free will allow users to make property valuations and reports for free with the only limitation that they will only be able to generate a maximum of 10 reports monthly.

Urbit Data Value Enterprise
The business version of Urbit Data Value is aimed at companies or organizations and the use of services will be valued in URB Coins.

Urbit Data Connect
This will be a web application whose objective is to allow users to make sales, purchase or rental operations without the need for intermediaries for the negotiation process and is supported by the Urbit Data Value tools so that the parties can choose the best option.

Urbit Data Connect Free
It will be a web application connected to the Urbit Data Service Gateway. This version offers users the following options: property publications, real estate search, purchase/sale and real estate rental.

Urbit Data Connect Enterprise
Directed to companies in the real estate sector, the business version will allow its users to perform the operations of the extended personal version in order to manage many properties simultaneously.

Urbit Data Owner
It consists of a registration and management platform for property titles in the blockchain, which will verify the ownership of a property and connect with other identity services to authenticate the owners.

The Urbit Data Wallet
It is a standard Ethereum wallet for storing ERC20 URB coins. In the case that the Ethereum blockchain scaling issues are not resolved and a separate blockchain has to be used, this wallet would be implemented independently.

   Every day there are more opinions in favor of the use of blockchain technology in real estate. Experts from Forbes state that the integration of blockchain is occurring virtually in every industry.
They said this new technology offers the ability to see real-time cryptocurrency transactions in a digital ledger managed by a network. According to Blockgeeks, the benefits of blockchain are vast as it gives consumers a look at information that is accurate, easily verifiable and public.

   On the other hand, the firm Deloitte ensures that blockchain has many opportunities and challenges. Experts highlight six use cases for improving purchase, sale and rent process through blockchain:
- Improve property search process.
- Expedite pre-lease due diligence.
- Ease leasing and subsequent property and cash flow management.
- Enable smarter decision-making.
- Transparent and relatively cheaper property title management.
- Enable more efficient processing of financing and payments.

   For this and other reasons Urbit Data proposes to the real estate market a platform that combines the use of the blockchain with transactions related with purchase, sale and rental of properties, vacational rentals and valuation of properties.
Urbit Data trusts with any doubt in blockchain since it’s a great technology to work, considering that is for sure a fast, safe and easier method to make a transaction in the real estate.

   But the team of Urbit Data are not the only ones who see the potential of the blockchain in real estate. Specialists of Masion Global support this technology since they are aware of how complicated it can be to buy a property using the traditional method.
Mr. Tickner who is the founder of Headland Holdings and Street said he started the company three years ago when he went through the slow and tortuous process of purchasing a Manhattan co-op. For him, the stress points came down to disclosing all his personal information to the broker, which was then photocopied 10 times and given to a building manager and photocopied some more and given to the board. He knew that the blockchain could speed things up and better and protect buyers’ anonymity.

   In a Coindesk article an agency said about blockchain: “The technology will allow investors residing in Dubai and around the world to verify property data that is backed by timestamp signatures, enhancing the accuracy of data, the credibility of investment transactions and the transparency and clarity of the market”.

   They also expressed that the use of this technology will allow tenants “to make payments electronically without the need to write checks or print any paper… within a few minutes at any time and from anywhere in the world”.
Finally, in Newsweek, they tell about the experience of buying and selling an apartment with this technology. It was in Ukraine and it has become the first-ever property to be bought and sold using blockchain, potentially heralding a new era of transparent and efficient real estate transactions. Ukrainian developer Mark Ginsburg sold the Kiev property to Michael Arrington, co-founder of the tech news site TechCrunch, for $60,000 via smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain. Blockchain, an online ledger first developed as the core technology behind the virtual currency bitcoin, makes transactions more transparent while improving the process of eliminating paper contracts and costly lawyer fees.

   Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin recently told The International Business Times about the benefits of this new type of network infrastructure. Using blockchain technology, he said, transactions are safer, more secure and bypass fee-collecting gatekeepers. “There won’t be a single powerful entity that controls the system or controls gatekeeping into the system,” Lubin said.

   After knowing all the positives reviews about blockchain technology in real estate market it is almost impossible to avoid a platform like Urbit Data, which is a revolutionary way to make business, forget about wasting your time making hard transactions and open the door to the future of real estate services.

   Nowadays, real estate market lacks of transparency and efficiency, especially compared with publicly traded equities and debt securities. The reasons for the deficiency in transparency could be:
   No standard regulations and requirements (compared to equities and bonds for example).
Very low trading frequency due to high transaction costs (10 - 20%) and to high prices in the assets.
Unstandardized valuation of properties.
   And excessive steps in the bureaucratic processes.
   One of the biggest problems of real estate business is the amount of information shown in many scattered online platforms. For example, if you are living in San Diego (USA) and you are looking for a property in South Africa, the search process could be complex to do by reason of: Low knowledge about how that market works; difficulties evaluating the quality of the information; mistrust with the prices founded, differences between currencies used for rental, buy or sale; variabilities in the process how to get it. This situation generates a limited agility, because research needs to offer a global vision, especially at the international level.
   In the other hand, it is detected several problems related with the real estate market as that continues to be managed in an outdated manner, such as: separate listing services result in inefficient searches, large volume of offline processes using a lot of paperwork, complexity to deal with verification of the contracts and documentations.
   As result of that Urbit Data will offer you a complete ecosystem solution which includes all the parts, not contemplated so far, that need to be improved and updated now. In the image below, we explain all the processes of Urbit Data:
  After reading different Urbit Data's solutions you could see some of this advantages to this revolutionary project:
- Improve the access to search information of the properties around the world, all in the same platform.
- Implement a smart contract to managed with more transparent and efficient way the purchases, rentals and sales.  
- Include the price valuation tool which offers a more real and equitable price through comparison of several real estate data sources.
- Increase speed, efficiency, and reliability avoiding the unnecessary paperwork.
- Reduction of transaction time, making them cheaper and safer.
- Incorporation of the Big Data software downloadable that feeds the Urbit Data database for the properties listed.
- Reward with Urbit Data Coins to the users who contribute with quality information.
   Beyond other real estate solutions, Urbit Data can offer advantages that would help to transform this industry which it will allow users to experiment the benefits offered.
   Finally, public ledger distributed provides trust, even more when the access is universal to anyone from anywhere. So, Urbit Data offer will provide the basis for all information related to real estate objects around the world.

The kind of information stored in the public blockchain can be for example:
- Property information (address, size, rooms, cadastral code, GPS location…)
- Owner (address of the property owner).
- Price evaluations of professional appraisers or banks.
- Evaluations of tenants.
- Transactions (short- or long-term rental, sale, usage as collateral…)
   As you can see, Urbit Data will bring you a lot benefits and solutions that conventional real estate transaction don’t have, because of their antiquated methods. All this makes Urbit Data the right site to change real estate market.

   The idea of buying or selling a property becomes something intense and exhausting because of the many procedures we have to do. Urbit Data will offer to its users the possibility of making business in a secure, easier and faster way changing the whole concept of the conventional real estate transactions.

   This is how Urbit Data platform will work: In order to purchase or sale, when the user is interested in a property, he/she opens a negotiation channel with the person who made the publication. This channel will transparently offer the Urbit Data Value analysis tools so that both parts can reach a price agreement.

   Another benefit about Urbit Data is the application Urbit Data Owner where users can verify the identity of those involved in the transaction, as well as the ownership of the property and its purchase/sale history. The platform can offer advice of business users who can support each of the parts in the decision process and in the legal process of the purchase according to the legislation that applies to the property: this advice will be paid in Urbit Data Coins (URB).

   Once the price has been agreed, a double verification process is executed to complete the purchase process by both parties. This process takes place with or without the assistance of the advisor. Urbit Data tools will have documentation of the legal processes of the countries in which it is implemented. The verification process is executed as follows:
By accepting the offer, the buyer must send the amount in URB to an Urbit Data escrow service that is in charge of maintaining the funds while the legal operation is being executed. This transaction is written into the blockchain as an operation in process.

   Once the amount is verified by the escrow service, the seller of the property is notified that the payment is in the platform and the vendor verifies the payment and initiates the legal process.

   Once the legal process is completed, the seller and buyer confirm the transaction and the funds are transferred from the escrow service to the seller.

   If the seller or the buyer fails to confirm the operation, a dispute phase begins for the property. This dispute is resolved by users of the Urbit Data Finder network who are in the locality of origin of the dispute and rewarded in URB coins for participating. The dispute system will use a Proof of Stake mechanism where the "Judges" will "pay" URB coins to resolve a dispute; if the dispute is successfully resolved they will receive their coins plus a reward, therefore, everybody wins!

   All transactions, including all disputes, are stored in the blockchain and may be viewed in future consultations of the property. Purchase and sale transactions generate commissions for the use of the escrow and the transaction in URB coins. Selling and purchasing using Urbit Data is to think wisely, it will be a way of avoiding all the paperwork, corrupting, and bad experiences.
