Real estate has always been a key differentiator between the wealthy and low-income groups. According to Realtor Magazine, homeowners are 40x richer in comparison to renters. Historically, it has been difficult for those of lower socioeconomic status to acquire real estate and hang onto it during difficult times. Thanks to the tokenization of real estate, that’s all changing. Tokenization of assets allows property to be broken up into smaller pieces, making them affordable for everyday investors. This innovation could not be more timely, given the global housing crisis resulting in an increasing wealth divide.
