Topic: Buying real estate with Bitcoin - page 6. (Read 1258 times)
Well, I think real estate compared to the transactions you've mentioned is far bigger. I don't think any real estate company besides those in Japan, or may be not also, would take a risk.
I haven't seen people who buying estate with bitcoin but it could be possible in some countries like Japan, because we already know that bitcoin is legal in this country since months. It's really a good idea to buy houses with bitcoin and I hope that I can see that available in the future and in many countries in the whole world.
This makes wonder whenever it's possible to buy real estate with Bitcoin?
This topic has been brought up before, as I remember seeing at least one other thread asking this same question--and I do find it an interesting one. I do recall seeing someone selling their house on bitcointalk a few years ago. The OP provided pictures and all, though I can't remember which country it was in. And in another thread someone mentioned a huge real estate sale that happened with bitcoin being the payment method.But those cases are isolated and rare to the best of my knowledge. I don't think there are any real estate agents or mortgage brokers who deal with bitcoin routinely, nor do I think there's a huge demand for that service. People barely spend bitcoin on little things, and the number of people with enough bitcoin to purchase a house or land is probably very small.
And besides, I see bitcoin as an investment more so than a currency. Buying a house with bitcoin would be like buying one with gold or stocks. It just doesn't make much sense--that's what fiat is for.
Bitcoin has become a recognised asset all over the world. It's just that most of the people are not comfortable with the high volatility on cryptocurrencies. That's the reason why many people have not started allocating a big part of their savings to it. Bitcoin can be exchanged to fiat at any moment so I don't see why would anyone reject BTC as a payment especially if they are not a big businesses that needs to respect a lot of regulations and accounting laws.
I don't think any real estate company in the world accepts bitcoin, apart from Japan! Because Japan is the first country where bitcoin were announced as a legal tender. But I don't think that is the case for the rest of the world. However, I found few websites where similar offers are being advertised. But I am not sure how legitimate they are.

But be very very cautious before connecting with them because their offers seems too good to be true! It may be a fraud as well! I really don't know about any trusted dealer where you can use your bitcoin to buy real estate!

With the increased adoption of Bitcoin among mainstream businesses and companies alike, we've seen the possibility of exchanging our Bitcoin to tangible assets for our own benefit. The pioneer cryptocurrency has reached far enough to become recognized as a legitimate form of payment within the mainstream world. Institutional investors, and even banks have realized the benefits of Bitcoin, resulting in increased demand across the market. I've seen forex trading with Bitcoin, and even precious metal retailers which accept Bitcoin as payment.
This makes wonder whenever it's possible to buy real estate with Bitcoin? Because if it does, then there would be nothing left for Bitcoin to become used as a serious cryptocurrency for daily payments (other than scaling the Blockchain and increasing privacy). Do you think that mainstream companies or businesses will be able to accept Bitcoin for real estate? Or it is too early to tell? Any thoughts?
