Agents in these states can now invite buyers and sellers onto Propy’s platform from offer to close, removing legacy processes and systems that slow down transactions, enhance security, and keep everyone in the dark.
Click, click, close
For decades, the real estate industry has been talking about the idea of simpler transactions that are more automated, more transparent and with fewer dependencies and people involved. So far, only pieces of the transaction have been fully digitized and fully leveraging algorithms and automation.
Propy adding title and escrow services to its offering follows the company’s overarching vision of a click-to-close reality for buyers and sellers.
“We had already built the next-generation closing platform in which smart contracts play the role of the escrow, and title is recorded on the blockchain,” said Propy Founder and CEO Natalia Karayaneva. “Launching these services now brings us closer to our dream of closing more and more transactions in a secure blockchain environment.”
The company plans to make title and escrow services available in all states by the end of the year.
In addition to title and escrow services, real estate agents use Propy’s platform to manage offers and transactions, and enable their clients to be able to see in real time what is going on with their purchase or sale.
The Propy platform has facilitated $4 billion worth of real estate transactions in the U.S.
“One of the greatest challenges in the title and escrow industry is wire fraud. With blockchain technology and security, wire fraud is virtually impossible,” said Anna Atencio, CEO of Propy Title, “Imagine the benefit for all parties of a transaction having full transparency of what is being delivered at each step of the transaction, and to the deed being recorded both on the blockchain and with the local county!”
Opening the door to crypto and NFTs
Another innovative aspect to Propy’s technology is its ability to facilitate transactions using both traditional means (cash and mortgages), and modern forms of payment and ownership like cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
In February and March Propy sold first ever real property NFTs in the U.S.
“We have eliminated the “worry and wonder” associated with the purchase process,” says
Karayaneva. “Because the process is transparent, interested buyers and their agents were able to view offer activity and adjust their price points accordingly. They didn’t have to worry about whether or not their offer was accepted or high-enough.
