REINNO Launches a Marketplace for Tokenized Commercial Real Estate - app.reinno.io/campaigns

Five offerings worth over $237 mln are currently available to investors worldwide.

Investors can now buy a fraction of multimillion-dollar real estate using either US dollars or cryptocurrency. The properties include medical facilities, apartment buildings, warehouses, and more. There are both individual assets and portfolios for extra diversification. All properties are managed by experienced commercial real estate professionals to maximize returns and make investments truly passive.

Both American and international investors are allowed to participate in the offerings. The access is currently limited to accredited or qualified individuals in order to comply with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. However, the company is open to the idea of having unaccredited investors in the future.

“Ultimately, the availability of each offering depends on the SEC exemption chosen by our tokenization clients. Most of them prefer having Reg D and Reg S offerings that do not allow selling securities to unaccredited investors but provide other benefits, such as no limit on the amount to be raised. We will be happy to list Reg A+ or Reg CF offerings if our clients decide to file for such exemptions,” says the co-founder and CEO of REINNO Viktor Viktorov.

Traditional commercial real estate is reserved for the richest. Digital fractional ownership enabled through tokenization decreases the entry barriers. Now users can invest in multimillion-dollar buildings with as little as $5,000. They can compare properties and close the deals online — fast and without any fees.

Due to the regulatory restrictions, real estate tokens cannot be traded on secondary markets for up to one year after the offering is closed. In order to provide liquidity during the lockup period, REINNO will offer loans backed by equity tokens. The company has developed a proprietary risk assessment model that allows it to approve loans instantly.
“This is a real game-changer. There are many ways to invest in real estate, from REITs to crowdfunding. However, none of them can deliver this level of liquidity, especially during the lockup period,” says REINNO’s COO Kristiyan Lozanov.

REINNO made news earlier this year when it tokenized a commercial real estate fund worth $105 mln and an office building in Connecticut worth $2.5 mln. Launching a marketplace brings the startup closer to its goal of creating an ecosystem for tokenized commercial real estate. It is now available at app.reinno.io/campaigns.

Is this technology suitable for any real estate company? How can I check it out for Havenbrooks Homes customer service for example? Or any other?
Hi,
Tokenization is beneficial for all commercial real estate owners, whether it is an individual or a company. The exact application can be adjusted depending on the needs and goals (e.g. to sell, to refinance, etc).

First Tokenized Office Building in Connecticut.

Fintech startup REINNO tokenized an office building in Stamford, Connecticut to replace traditional bank financing.

After successfully tokenizing a $105-million-dollar commercial real estate fund last month, REINNO created and issued tokens backed by a multi-million-dollar commercial building in downtown Stamford, CT. The tokens were created on the Ethereum blockchain utilizing industry and regulatory standards. In addition to the technical side of tokenization, REINNO also provided all the necessary resources for the overall project, including establishing the legal structure.

Tokenization as a New Financing Tool

Real estate tokenization creates digital representation of equity and/or debt in the form of securitized digital tokens. It is a technology tool that makes financing and capital raising much easier, faster, more efficient and secure. However, there is a lot more involved than just creating the digital tokens. For tokenization projects to succeed and truly disrupt the commercial real estate industry, the tokenization company has to have a deep understanding of the real estate industry in addition to knowing the technology.

“That is where REINNO stands out. Unlike its competitors, REINNO not only provides tokenization but also additional services, from regulatory compliance and legal structure to lending against securitized real estate tokens to create liquidity” said Viktor Viktorov, CEO of REINNO. “In addition, we are excited to have recently partnered with a fully-regulated security token exchange to create greater liquidity for investors.”

The Deal
Most tokenized properties are offered to investors in the form of equity token offerings. In the case of this commercial building, the owners are not planning to sell. Instead, they will use tokens as loan collateral. REINNO has a proprietary risk assessment model which allows it to almost instantly lend money against commercial real estate tokens. This is a true breakthrough for the real estate market that has been rigid and inefficient for years. In the traditional model, borrowing against real estate is expensive, time-consuming and frustrating especially when dealing with banks, lawyers, title companies, etc.

“Thanks to tokenization and our proprietary lending platform, leveraging an equity investment and pledging tokens to take a loan is now possible in just a couple of minutes” said Barry Monies, co-founder of REINNO. “Moreover, fractional ownership makes it possible to use a portion of tokens as collateral rather than putting a lien on the entire real estate asset.”

The Future
We are still in the early stages of both blockchain and tokenization. Like any other technology, it has to be made simple and user-friendly in order to achieve mass adoption. As more successful projects and use cases appear on the market, the public is enticed to learn about the new technology and its applications. Once there is a history of tokenization bringing real liquidity, we can expect wider adoption. REINNO has many deals in the pipeline and is on its way to becoming the one-stop shop for tokenizing real estate and the services associated with this asset class.

Tokenizing a Real Estate Fund
REINNO tokenized REI Capital Growth (REICG) — a commercial real estate fund worth $105 million. REICG security tokens are digital financial securities backed by cash-flowing commercial properties. The tokens represent fractional ownership of the fund and are available for both U.S. and international investors.

This partnership allows REINNO to further boost liquidity of tokenized real estate, already ensured by its lending and crowdfunding services.

Tokenization Anthem (Billie Eilish Parody)
To celebrate the beginning of the new decade, REINNO made a parody of one of the biggest hits of 2019 — Bad Guy by Billie Eilish. Now the “tough guy” is a real estate investor with a profitable property while the protagonist goes from “that bad type, make your mama sad type” to “that tech type, make it super fast type”. It’s a one-minute masterpiece that guarantees to put a smile on your face. Watch it here.

REINNO tokenized a real estate fund worth $105 Million.

REINNO tokenized REI Capital Growth - a commercial real estate fund worth $105 million dollars. Securitized tokens created will be offered to investors globally.

Real estate tokenization industry is having a great start this year, as more properties are moving to the Ethereum blockchain. A fintech startup REINNO announced the successful tokenization of REI Capital Growth – a fund operated by REI.

The Offering


REI Capital Growth (REICG) will use tokenization to offer a new model for investing in U.S. commercial real estate to both U.S. and international buyers and build upon its existing portfolio. It includes two simultaneous security token offerings (STO). One $40 million equity offering and a $65 million bond (debt) offering. REICG security tokens are digital financial securities, backed by the tangible, cash-flowing, U.S. commercial real estate, fully compliant with KYC/AML requirements, and all SEC and IRS regulations. These tokens can be sold on secondary markets at the end of the holding period (40 days for debt and one year for equity).

“I have been in the real estate business for over 36 years. It is exciting to see the industry evolve and use innovative technologies, such as blockchain, to create new opportunities” said Alan Blair, the managing principal of REI - a real estate investment, advisory, brokerage and management company. “Tokenization allows us to reach international investors and offer them exceptional investment opportunities in American commercial real estate. We are now able to deliver flexible, paperless assets and the highest standards of excellence to investors worldwide.”

Transforming Commercial Real Estate

Commercial real estate in the US is a profitable and sought-after investment asset. Investors are attracted to its stability, steady income flow, portfolio diversification, and inflation hedging. However, real estate is notorious for its lack of liquidity. It takes a lot of time, money and paperwork to complete a real estate transaction, convert a property into cash or vice versa. REINNO is solving the real estate illiquidity problem by offering not only tokenization services but also loans backed by tokenized real estate. Tokenization, also known as digital shares, enables fast fractional ownership, and instant loans against those tokens allow investors to tap into the value of their assets easier and faster than current methods.

With REINNO real estate lending, token owners can decide on the size of loan collateral by depositing tokens and receive money almost instantly. Then, as they pay back the loan, they regain equity equivalent to the principal they paid against the loan. It turns real estate into a flexible investment instrument, helping investors gain control and leverage over their assets. “Tokenizing REI Capital Growth brings us one step closer to creating an ecosystem where commercial properties are liquid while real estate transactions are paperless, instant and efficient,” said Viktor Viktorov, the CEO of REINNO. “We already provide real estate tokenization and lending services; soon we are launching a new functionality which makes investing in tokenized real estate easily accessible.”

REI Capital Growth is the first real estate fund tokenized by REINNO. The company has more projects in the pipeline, including both individual buildings and portfolios.

REINNO is a financial technology company offering a new solution for lending and real estate tokenization with a focus on liquidity. REINNO provides three services, which are complementary to each other – real estate tokenization, loans against property-backed tokens and a crowdfunding platform with secondary market capabilities for listing and trading tokenized real estate - all in order to provide maximum flexibility and efficiency for our users.

The value of global real estate assets is calculated at $217 trillion and it keeps growing. Although it would be unrealistic to expect all properties to move to blockchain, there is no doubt that the real estate market has huge potential for tokenization. In its current state, the industry suffers from illiquidity and high entry barriers. REINNO is disrupting the real estate market with the help of blockchain technology, making it more efficient and flexible.

Tokenization is a way of digitalizing real estate assets, enabling fractional ownership and boosting liquidity. Sellers receive a flexible sales instrument, and buyers can pick up real estate opportunities without having to deal with traditional entry barriers. It offers investors and homeowners a way of further unlocking the value of real estate by using tokens as collateral for loans.

Please take a look at the tokenization benefits in more detail:

-   Less paperwork – once a property is tokenized, all the information (its value, size, location, ownership and loans against it) is securely recorded on blockchain. This means that all future transactions can run smother with less paperwork needed.

-   Convenience – you can access our online platform 24/7 without the need to go to an office or wait in lines. Moreover, REINNO takes care of due diligence and appraisal required for tokenization.

-   Speed – smart contracts significantly speed up the transfer of ownership rights, tokens and money. Moreover, when an asset is tokenized, the lending process is almost instant; you can receive funds in just a few clicks.

-   Lower Fees – by digitalizing the process, REINNO eliminates the need for middlemen, making transaction related to real estate more efficient and saving you money.

-   Low Entry Barriers – with each token representing a fraction of real estate, a larger pool of investors gets a chance to participate since the minimum size of investment is significantly reduced.

-   Liquidity – With tokens representing only parts of the asset’s value, selling and buying becomes easier. Moreover, lending backed by tokenized real estate gives you access to funds whenever you need them.

-   Security – blockchain technology behind our tokenization and lending services ensures full transparency and protection of records.

-   Competitive advantage – tokenization is an innovative method of selling and borrowing against property which gives tokenized real estate an advantage over traditional properties by offering extra benefits.

Our tokenization process is straightforward:
1. A client initiates tokenization by getting in touch with REINNO and submitting relevant property-related documents.
2. A service agreement is signed.
3. REINNO performs inspection of the property and supporting documentation, establishes an SPV for digitalization and creates a smart contract.
4. The real estate asset goes live on blockchain and the tokens are transferred to its owner.

As you can see, REINNO takes care of both legal and technical aspects of tokenization. Moreover, it offers opportunities for marketing and refinancing of real estate-backed tokens through its crowdfunding and lending platform.

Tokens issued by REINNO are based on an improved ERC-884 standard.

Currently the company is updating its website and polishing its upcoming demo for the crowdfunding and lending platform.


Stay tuned for the demo release!
