It\u2019s not unusual for NFTs to be tied to physical items. We\u2019ve seen this with art and fashion pieces but what about houses? This might seem like a novel idea, but Roofstock<\/a>, a property tech company, has sold its second house<\/a> as an NFT. <\/span>This property is based in Alabama and sold for $180,000 on an Origin Protocol-associated marketplace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At Home with NFTs<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Given how diverse the applications of NFTs have become, it is not too much of a surprise that even houses are getting the digital treatment. A sentiment reaffirmed by the company\u2019s chief blockchain officer, Geoffrey Thompson, who believes that the underlying technology of NFTs has proven to be convenient for buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cWhat it boils down to is being able to transact a real-world home with one click using NFT smart contracts,\u201d he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Interestingly, the loan that was taken to allow for the financing of the homes was arranged in partnership with the Teller protocol. Through the protocol, users can access DeFi lending services and these are backed up by real-world assets. According to Sanjay Raghavan, head of Web3 initiatives at Roofstock, customers are required to not only buy a property but also title it as a single-purpose limited liability company (LLC).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By selling the NFT, they are essentially selling the ownership of the LLC.<\/span><\/p>\n
