The First Leaseum Partners Newsletter, October 2018
It has been a busy few months here at Leaseum Partners as we continue to work to bring accessibility, liquidity, efficiency and transparency to high quality Real Estate investment. Moving forward, expect to hear from us more frequently on how we are providing investors worldwide access to a portfolio of New York City real estate.
What exactly have we been up to?
Finalizing our Documentation
It is essential that everything we do is 100% compliant with existing securities regulations. Our investors need to feel confident in how we are managing their capital. We have been working extensively with our lawyers to finalize our Private Placement Memorandum and our Whitepaper. We will be sharing both of these documents across our community in the coming weeks. Our Real Estate Investment Team, Michael Chetrit and David Dahan, have prepared extensive documentation describing our investment strategy that will be available in our whitepaper. To get an introduction to the Leaseum Partners investment opportunity, read our light paper.
Building our investment dashboard
As one of the first blockchain based Real Estate funds in the world, we have been at the forefront of Real Estate tokenization. We have built a bespoke investment dashboard for Leaseum investors. This dashboard not only allows investors to invest in Leaseum token, after you invest it will be the space for you to manage your investment. The dashboard will provide all investors with quarterly reports about their Real Estate portfolio and allow investors to choose between receiving their quarterly dividend payments in either traditional currencies or cryptocurrencies.
Spreading the Leaseum word
From press, speaking engagements, blog posts, conferences and more, we have been traveling the world to educate about Leaseum Partners and Real Estate tokenization. We intend to provide investors worldwide access to a professionally managed New York City real estate portfolio.
