Main components (5)
RealTokens (ERC-20 property tokens)
Each property is held by a dedicated LLC (originally a Delaware series LLC / Inc. structure) whose ownership interests are fractionalized into ERC-20 RealTokens issued on Ethereum and Gnosis Chain. Tokens carry transfer restrictions (whitelisting) to comply with U.S. securities law and entitle holders to a pro-rata share of net rental income.
RealT platform (realt.co)
The primary-issuance marketplace where investors register, complete KYC/AML and (for U.S. persons) accredited-investor verification, purchase RealTokens from ~$50, sign the electronic subscription/purchase contract, and receive tokens within roughly 24 hours.
Weekly rent distribution
Rental income collected from tenants is distributed to token holders weekly in USDC, primarily via Gnosis Chain to minimize gas costs, proportional to the RealTokens held.
YAM (You And Me) secondary market
A permissioned peer-to-peer exchange (smart contracts on Gnosis Chain) where whitelisted holders create buy/sell offers for RealTokens at custom prices. Whitelisting per property is required for any secondary trade.
RMM (RealToken Money Market)
An Aave-style non-custodial lending market (forked from Aave protocol v2/v3) where users deposit RealTokens as collateral and borrow stablecoins such as USDC, or lend assets to earn interest, adding liquidity to otherwise illiquid property tokens.
Differentiator
Per-property Delaware-LLC RealTokens stream daily rental yield to the holder's wallet; hundreds of individual property tokens.

Similarity to traditional finance products
How RealT maps onto established TradFi structures, and where it diverges.
| TradFi product | Similarity to RealT | Key differences |
|---|---|---|
| Direct single-family rental property ownership | Investors gain exposure to income-producing U.S. rental homes and receive rental cash flow, and the underlying asset is an actual deeded property held in an LLC. | RealT fractionalizes each home into ERC-20 tokens with a ~$50 minimum and blockchain-based, weekly stablecoin distributions, versus buying a whole property with a mortgage, direct title, and hands-on landlording. Token holders hold LLC interests, not the deed, and have limited control over property management. |
| Publicly traded residential REIT | Both pool investor capital to hold portfolios of rental real estate and pass through rental income to holders as a form of yield. | A REIT is a regulated, exchange-listed entity offering a diversified, professionally managed pool with daily liquidity. RealT sells property-specific, unregistered securities (Reg D/Reg S) with per-property concentration risk, whitelisting-gated illiquid secondary markets, and no exchange listing. |
