Hi everyone,
I’m an experienced commercial real estate investor who has been in the space on and off since 2018, completing multiple successful deals. I got started in commercial real estate by buying a mobile home park in Alabama. Over the years, I’ve seen how traditional methods of raising capital for real estate projects can be cumbersome—high fees, slow transactions, and challenges for international and American investors alike.
I’m working on a concept for a real estate crowdfunding platform that would allow individuals to invest in U.S. properties using cryptocurrency (e.g., stablecoins like USDC as well as BTC). The idea is to simplify the investment process, lower transaction costs, and make opportunities more accessible to a global audience.
This would start as a lean platform with a focus on small, curated real estate projects, where investors could pool funds and benefit from potential profits, while I manage the properties. Here’s the kicker: the entire platform would use crypto for payments instead of traditional methods like ACH or wire transfers.
I’d love your thoughts on this:
-
Would you be interested in investing in real estate through a platform like this? Why or why not?
-
What would be your biggest concerns about using crypto for real estate investments?
-
What features would you expect or find most valuable in a platform like this?
My goal is to build something small and manageable initially, and then scale up with more functionality and compliance features over time. I’d greatly appreciate your feedback, suggestions, or even your skepticism—it all helps refine the idea.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
P.S. Just to be clear, mobile home parks would absolutely be a property type we invest in.
