How to Buy Asset Tokens on the Landshare Dashboard
Landshare offers the ability to invest in real estate on the Binance Smart Chain through a process called tokenization.
Tokenization works by converting the ownership of real world into Asset Tokens. Each Asset Token represents a $50 stake in a property and will increase in value as the property does. For a detailed breakdown of Asset Tokenization, please see our tokenization blog post.
Landshare offers two types of real estate offerings — house flips and rental properties.
Rental properties are held indefinitely and allow investors to collect passive rental income each month. Rental properties are great for investors who are looking for a long-term store of value that also provides passive income. If you are ready to sell, you can do so any time using DS Swap or our upcoming OTC buyback program.
House Flips are short term investments that enables investors to earn yields from renovating and selling houses. This feature is designed to incorporate a short-term real estate investment into your portfolio.
Once the house is fully renovated and sold, investors can redeem their tokens to receive a lump-sum payout. To read more about our house flipping offerings you can refer to our Landshare Feature Preview: Tokenized House Flipping article.
Landshare offers a straight-forward alternative to traditional real estate investing. With our tokenized assets, investors are able to invest in real estate assets in a matter of minutes. Getting started is easy — simply follow the few steps below to begin your real estate investing journey.
- 1.
2. Select the property you would like to invest in. This will take you to a page where you can review a summary of the property, the financial information, and the current status of the offering.
3. After reviewing the property information, you may select “View on Dashboard” to be redirected to our tokenized asset dashboard where you will be able to make your investment.
4. Once you’re at the dashboard, you will need to register an account. Your account will be bound to both your personal identity and wallet address and can be used for all future tokenized asset purchases.
5. After you’ve registered your account, the final step before being able to invest is to complete the KYC. Similar to the account creation, you will only be required to complete the KYC once, and it will allow you eligibility for all future tokenized assets. You can begin the KYC process from the dashboard home page as seen below.
To complete KYC, you will need to submit your name, address, date of birth, and photo ID. Your personal information is not shared with anyone! Please note that certain countries, including the United States, are not eligible to participate at this time. For a full list of ineligible countries, please view the bottom of our homepage at landshare.io.
6. Once your KYC is submitted, the Landshare team will review your submitted credentials and either approve your account or request further documentation. Your KYC will be processed in 1–4 days. If approved, you will receive a confirmation email and are now eligible to make your first investment in our tokenized assets! You can also verify if you are approved on the main dashboard page:
