From The Blockchain Fractionalized Real Estate Investing and Blockchain Technology Ft: Laura Fortey of REITIUM
THE EPISODE:
Laura and Ashley discuss how startups and tech companies are reimagining how regular people can buy and invest in real estate. They also unpack how forward thinking companies can use web3 technology to future-proof their processes and infrastructures. REITIUM, described as the “Kickstarter for real estate”, uses blockchain to store sensitive data and to enable their users to buy and sell fractionalized equity ownership on their secondary marketplace. Laura shares some of the challenges of navigating the regulatory environment when bringing something new and unchartered to market. The ladies also brainstorm how AI may revolutionize real estate investment strategies moving forward. Host Ashley Smith has an extensive real estate background in Canada as a Realtor and a governance leader in the professional sector. For her, this was a particularly fun conversation as, in her opinion, little has changed in the industry over the last several decades, and she’s excited to explore opportunities outside of status quo practices and business models.
