Real estate investment is evolving rapidly. Thanks to real estate tokenization projects and digital tokenization, investors can now access premium properties without huge capital or complex legal hurdles. Tokenization of real estate is redefining property ownership, making it fractional, transparent, and tradable on global platforms.

At DureDev, we are a leading real estate tokenization development company. We create real estate marketplaces where property owners can tokenize real estate, and investors can explore fractional ownership real estate, yield farming, and other cryptocurrency tokenization opportunities safely and compliantly.

🌟 What Are Tokenized Real Estate Marketplaces?

A real estate marketplace is a digital platform where tokenized real estate assets are listed, traded, and managed. These marketplaces allow fractional real estate investing, enabling investors of all sizes to participate in premium properties.

Key features include:

• Listing asset-backed tokens (ERC-20, ERC-721, or hybrid)
• Buying, selling, or leasing fractional shares
• Transparent ownership records on blockchain
• Automated rental income distribution and yield farming

💡 How Asset Tokenization Transforms Property Investment

Asset tokenization allows a single property to be divided into smaller, tradable digital tokens. This opens the market to more investors and adds liquidity that traditional real estate lacks.

Benefits:

1. Access high-value properties with smaller investments via fractional real estate investment platforms
2. Trade tokens globally in a real estate marketplace
3. Automated returns via smart contracts, similar to real world assets crypto models
4. Full transparency and compliance through blockchain and KYC/AML procedures
5. New revenue models: tokenized REITs, luxury rental NFTs, and fractional ownership

Example: A $3M villa can be split into 3,000 tokens worth $1,000 each, allowing hundreds of investors to participate without needing full capital.

🚀 Why Real World Asset Tokenization is the Future

The demand for tokenization in blockchain and tokenization in cryptocurrency is growing by 2025:

• Fractional ownership real estate will attract investors seeking liquidity and low entry barriers
• Hybrid models with fiat and crypto payments will become standard
• Fractional real estate allows portfolio diversification without huge capital commitments

DureDev enables seamless real estate tokenization development with full-stack platforms, smart contract auditing, investor onboarding, and global-ready marketplaces.

1. Fractional investment real estate — Shared ownership in residential, commercial, or luxury properties
2. Tokenized REITs — Blockchain-based real estate funds with tradable shares
3. Luxury rental NFTs — Time-share or premium vacation properties

Bitcoin’s trajectory is becoming a central theme in the first family’s business interests, with Eric Trump explaining why he believes the market is setting up for a dramatic surge. His comments, made in a YouTube interview with Grant Cardone, offered a rare look into how American Bitcoin Corp (ABTC) approaches the crypto industry and why the Trumps consider BTC one of the most important financial opportunities of the decade.

Eric Trump Thinks Parabolic Rally Is Coming For Bitcoin

Eric Trump made it clear that ABTC operates on the conviction that Bitcoin is gearing up for a powerful upward acceleration. American Bitcoin is a publicly traded BTC mining and accumulation company co-founded by Eric Trump in partnership with Hut 8 Corp.

According to Eric Trump, the company is structured to maximize its BTC holdings ahead of that move rather than dilute resources on heavy management costs or constant liquidations. In his words, the comparison with other miners is straightforward because ABTC wants to hold the asset it believes will appreciate sharply instead of turning mined Bitcoin into daily operating cash.

His reasoning is a departure from the traditional mining business model, which typically sells a significant share of its Bitcoin to cover operational costs. Trump insists that ABTC is deliberately positioning itself differently because “we want to be buying the asset that we believe is going to appreciate.”

Eric Trump said BTC’s surge is not limited to ordinary crypto investors but is also driven by the quiet entry of sovereign funds, family offices, and major institutions. He also contrasted Bitcoin with real estate, noting that he now spends more time in crypto because it grows in ways traditional property cannot. 

Real estate is slow and tied to limited cash flow, while Bitcoin scales globally and appreciates far faster. That difference is one of the reasons he expects BTC to reach around $500,000 in the long term, a prediction he offered without hesitation.

ABTC’s Unique Model: Building BTC Per Share

Ashet Genoot, CEO of Hut 8 Corp., expanded on the company’s internal philosophy by explaining how ABTC measures value differently from other publicly traded firms. Instead of focusing on earnings per share, he said their model centers on “Bitcoin per share,” which is a metric that reflects how much BTC each shareholder indirectly controls through the company.

Genoot explained that the question they ask every day is simple: how do we grow the amount of Bitcoin per share? He described their system as a constant pursuit of increasing BTC reserves through multiple channels, whether mining coins at scale or buying them whenever conditions favor accumulation. 

The goal is for every ABTC shareholder to benefit from a rising quantity of BTC over time, turning the company into a long-term accumulator rather than a miner that immediately sells its output to cover expenses.

According to regulatory filings, ABTC operates tens of thousands of ASIC miners under Hut 8’s infrastructure and has accumulated more than 4,000 BTC as of late 2025.

As food prices remain high, the Trump administration has made it easier for farmers to hire foreign guest workers and to pay them less. Now, other industries with large immigrant workforces also are asking for relief as they combat labor shortages and raids.

Visas for temporary foreign workers are a quick fix with bipartisan support in Congress. And Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins’ office told Stateline that “streamlining” visas for both agricultural and other jobs is a priority for the Trump administration.

Zillow has dropped its climate risk score program just one year after it started, according to a report by TechCrunch. It has removed climate risk scores from over one million listings after real estate agents complained that the data was misleading and leading to lost sales.

In their place, listings now feature a small link to data sourced from climate risk startup First Street, which is the organization that provided the original assessment. The startup isn't too happy about this move, with spokesperson Matthew Eby telling TechCrunch that "the risk doesn't go away; it just moves from a pre-purchase decision into a post-purchase liability." First Street's climate scores still appear on listings from Redfin, Realtor.com and Homes.com.

The California Regional Multiple Listing Service (CRMLS) is pleased with Zillow's decision, as this real estate database is used primarily by industry professionals. CRMLS CEO Art Carter told The New York Times that "displaying the probability of a specific home flooding this year or within the next five years can have a significant impact on the perceived desirability of that property."

Carter also questioned the validity of First Street's data, saying that areas that haven't flooded in 40 or 50 years were not likely to flood in the next five. First Street responded by saying "our models are built on transparent, peer-reviewed science and are continuously validated against real-world outcomes."

Zillow

Zillow's climate risk score labels have been controversial since the company launched the program in 2024, particularly among real estate agents. One agent told The Boston Globe last year that they were "putting thoughts in people’s minds about my listing that normally wouldn’t be there." More than 80 percent of prospective buyers consider climate risks when shopping for a new home so, yeah, those thoughts are already in there.

First Street maintains that its climate risk scores are extremely useful for consumers, noting that its maps correctly identified risk for over 90 percent of the homes that burned during the Los Angeles wildfires. The company says its internal maps have been "significantly outperforming CalFire's official state hazard maps."

Engadget has reached out to Zillow to ask about its reasoning here. We will update this post when we hear back.

This story first appeared on Real Estate News.

Home search leader Zillow has changed the way that it shares climate risk information — directing visitors to the website of data partner First Street rather than surfacing it on Zillow home detail pages.

“This update ensures consumers continue to have access to important information to help them consider factors such as insurance, repair costs and long-term homeownership planning, and reflects our long-standing commitment to empowering consumers with transparent information,” a Zillow spokesperson shared with Real Estate News over email when asked about the move.

What’s less clear is the role one of the nation’s largest MLSs played in the change.

First reported by The New York Times in late November, Zillow’s removal of climate risk data from its listings comes as industry stakeholders vigorously debate over the ownership of listing data and as home insurance prices continue to skyrocket.

Why Zillow made the change — for all its listings

The New York Times story highlighted complaints from real estate agents along with the California Regional Multiple Listing Service (CRMLS) and its CEO Art Carter about perceived discrepancies and inconsistencies in the climate risk data, and implied that Zillow’s change was done under pressure from CRMLS.

In a statement shared with Real Estate News, a Zillow spokesperson said that the change was made to comply with different MLS requirements but did not highlight CRMLS specifically. Zillow’s change in the way it displays climate risk data has been applied to all listings on the site, not just homes in California or those within CRMLS’ jurisdiction. 

“Zillow remains committed to providing consumers with information that helps them make informed real estate decisions. We updated our climate risk product experience to adhere to varying MLS requirements and maintain a consistent experience for all consumers,” the spokesperson said.

However, other leading portals are still showing climate data in home listings. “You can still find property level climate risk scores on Redfin,” Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather wrote in a social media post that linked to the New York Times story. 

CRMLS’s role and response

“There was no change in the rules,” a CRMLS spokesperson said over email when asked if there was a specific update in MLS standards and practices that would have led to Zillow’s move.  

So why now? If Zillow has implied that the change was made in order to remain in compliance with MLS practices, what exactly was CRMLS’s role in the change to home search site’s display of climate data? The dispute between Zillow and CRMLS could also be viewed as another example of the ongoing fight among major industry stakeholders over the control of listings and listing data. 

In October, CRMLS and Compass engaged in a feud over the MLS’s end user licensing agreement, which Compass CEO Robert Reffkin argued forced “over 100,000 agents to accept a 10-page agreement giving CRMLS the right to sell the agents’ content and contribution.” Carter said the MLS serves its users by managing the data they provide “as a set, not as a bunch of individual fragments” and the agreement reflects that.

The impact of skyrocketing insurance rates

As organized real estate and home search sites debate the accuracy of climate data and the merits of displaying it on property listings, one issue that isn’t being disputed is the rising cost of home insurance. Zillow’s move to point consumers off the site to explore climate risks comes at a time when more homeowners are seeing major increases in their insurance premiums and others are actually seeing the steep costs of insurance eat into their home value. 

While speaking at a November event for ResiClub, Cotality Chief Data and Analytics Officer John Rogers said the average annual change in homeowners insurance premiums was 14% for both 2023 and 2024 and is expected to be 10% in 2025. Rogers also forecasted an 8% rise in premiums for 2026 and in 2027. 

But California home owners and buyers are being hit particularly hard. According to the California Association of Realtors’ latest State of the Market annual report and survey, over a quarter of member agents signaled that their buyers were having difficulty obtaining insurance. And the number of buyers losing out on a home because of issues with home insurance has been increasing. Last year, over 14% of member agents reported that at least one sale fell through because buyers could not secure homeowners insurance while the number rose to over 16% in 2025.
