Grant Cardone, founder of Cardone Capital, is optimistic about the future of real estate investing through blockchain technology. As the financial world continues to integrate blockchain, Cardone sees real estate tokenization as an opportunity to make real estate investing more accessible to the general public. He is scheduled to speak on this topic at Benzinga’s upcoming Future of Digital Assets event.
Democratization of real estate investment
Cardone emphasized that the tokenization of real estate could lower the barrier to entry for investors. “I am very excited about the potential of real estate tokenization to democratize access to real estate investing by allowing fractional ownership,” he said.
He believes this approach will give a wider range of people the opportunity to invest in real estate, a market that has historically been dominated by financial institutions and wealthy individuals.
Regulatory hurdles impeding progress
While Cardone is enthusiastic about the potential of blockchain, he noted that a lack of regulatory clarity remains a major stumbling block. “The biggest hurdle has been, and continues to be, SEC regulations that are holding back blockchain regulation,” Cardon said. Without proper guidelines, even established investors like Cardone are hesitant to take full advantage of blockchain in real estate.
Real-world applications and challenges
Recently, Cardone tested the waters by listing high-value real estate on its blockchain platform. The results were promising, attracting offers and interest. “Blockchain transactions are a game changer for residential and commercial real estate,” he said, noting that the technology could have a disruptive impact on the industry. But he also acknowledged that the disruption could cause anxiety for regulators and traditional real estate companies.
As the Benzinga Future of Digital Assets event approaches, Cardone is expected to dive deeper into how blockchain will transform real estate investing. As he remains determined to take the lead in this emerging sector, he has his sights set on regulatory developments that will be key to unlocking the full potential of blockchain in the real estate market.
As the digital asset market continues to mature, regulatory changes, M&A activity, and a convergence of adoption trends will define the future of this dynamic sector. Benzinga’s Future of Digital Assets event in New York City this November will provide industry leaders and investors with a platform to further explore these developments and learn about the evolving regulatory environment and the latest market trends. provides insight.
