Real estate tokenization is the process of converting ownership or economic rights in a property into digital tokens recorded on a distributed ledger (usually a public or permissioned blockchain). Each token represents a legally enforceable claim, typically structured as a regulated security through an SPV, trust, or fund vehicle. Smart-contract logic then governs issuance, transfers, compliance rules, and investor entitlements within a regulated market framework.
