U.S.-based company RedSwan tokenized $100 million worth of commercial real estate on the Stellar blockchain, opening global access to these assets for retail investors.
RedSwan Digital Real Estate, a FINRA-regulated digital securities platform and real estate investment firm, launched a portfolio of tokenized assets valued at $100 million on Stellar. The portfolio includes multifamily residential complexes and institutional-grade hospitality properties.
Integration with Stellar enables token issuance through the Token Studio platform in full regulatory compliance, making these assets available to investors worldwide. The model ensures a lower entry barrier, transaction transparency, and 24/7 secondary market liquidity.
RedSwan CEO Edward Nwokedi noted that Stellar’s architecture is ideally suited to the company’s mission of making real estate investment more accessible and transparent. According to him, the partnership helps solve major challenges of the traditional market, including high minimum investment thresholds, low liquidity, geographic restrictions, and opaque ownership structures.
Experts estimate that in North America alone, tokenization could unlock access to assets worth around $75 trillion. The collaboration between RedSwan and Stellar demonstrates that large-scale real estate digitalization can take place within the framework of existing regulation.
Max Krupyshev, CEO of CoinsPaid , previously pointed out that the potential of tokenized real estate has so far only been realized by a few percent, since most initiatives are local and small-scale, with legal complexities remaining the main barrier.
Denelle Dixon, Executive Director of the Stellar Development Foundation, emphasized that the Stellar network was originally designed for the fast and secure transfer of value across borders. She highlighted real estate tokenization as one of the most promising applications of the technology , with RedSwan’s project serving as a strong proof of concept.
The trend of real estate tokenization is steadily gaining momentum:
- in the U.S., projects were announced to tokenize $1 billion worth of commercial and multifamily real estate;
- in Japan, a $75 million real estate tokenization project was launched ;
- RAFAL Real Estate Development Company initiated a pilot program to tokenize luxury real estate in Saudi Arabia’s capital.
These are just some examples of the many real estate tokenization initiatives that have been actively developing in recent years.
