Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is RET (Real Estate Token)?

RET is a tokenized real estate investment platform that allows investors to own fractional shares of premium real estate properties. Each RET token represents $50,000 USDC worth of fractional ownership in real estate assets.

How much does 1 RET token cost?

1 RET token is priced at $50,000 USDC. This is the minimum investment amount to participate in the RET ecosystem.

What is the difference between RET tokens and RET-RWA tokens?

RET tokens are the primary investment tokens used to purchase fractional real estate ownership. RET-RWA (Real-World Asset) tokens represent specific property units. When you exchange RET tokens for property, you receive RET-RWA tokens representing your fractional ownership.

What blockchain does RET use?

RET tokens are ERC-20 tokens deployed on the Ethereum mainnet, ensuring security, transparency, and compatibility with standard Web3 wallets.

Investment

What is the minimum investment?

The minimum investment is 1 RET token, which equals $50,000 USDC.

How do I purchase RET tokens?

After completing KYC verification and connecting your wallet, you can purchase RET tokens directly on the exchange using USDC. The purchase is executed through a smart contract on Ethereum.

What payment methods are accepted?

RET accepts USDC (USD Coin) as the payment method. USDC is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, providing price stability.

How do returns work?

Returns are generated through a dual yield model: (1) Base Yield from rental income, and (2) Appreciation Yield from property value increases. Yields vary based on property status (Off-Plan, Under Construction, Ready to Move) and holding period (90-360 days).

What is the minimum holding period?

Minimum holding periods range from 90 to 360 days depending on the property status. Longer holding periods typically offer better yields. You can check the specific holding period for each property before investing.

Can I sell my RET tokens before the holding period ends?

While RET tokens are transferable ERC-20 tokens, selling before the minimum holding period may result in reduced yields. We recommend holding for the full period to maximize returns. Please review the terms for each property.

How do I exit my investment?

You can swap RET tokens back to USDC on the exchange. A 1% exit fee applies to maintain platform liquidity.

Are yields guaranteed?

No, yields are not guaranteed. Yields are proportional to rental income and property appreciation. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Properties

What types of properties are available?

RET offers a diverse portfolio including residential properties (apartments, villas), commercial properties (offices, retail spaces), and mixed-use developments across multiple global markets.

How are properties selected?

Properties undergo rigorous due diligence including location analysis, developer reputation, market conditions, and legal compliance. All properties are vetted for investment quality.

Can I choose which properties to invest in?

Yes, you can browse available properties and select specific ones to invest in. Each property listing includes details about location, developer, status, pricing, and expected yields.

How do I exchange RET tokens for property units?

Navigate to the Exchange page, select a property, and specify the number of RET tokens to exchange. The transaction is executed on-chain, and you receive RET-RWA tokens representing your fractional ownership.

KYC & Compliance

Why is KYC required?

KYC (Know Your Customer) is required for regulatory compliance, fraud prevention, and anti-money laundering (AML) purposes. It ensures the platform maintains high security and regulatory standards.

What documents do I need for KYC?

You will need a government-issued ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID), proof of address (utility bill or bank statement), and complete a liveness check (facial biometric verification).

How long does KYC verification take?

KYC verification typically takes 24-48 hours. You will receive an email notification once your verification is complete.

Which countries are supported?

RET follows global compliance standards. However, users from sanctioned countries or high-risk jurisdictions (as defined by FATF) may not be able to onboard. Please check our KYC & AML Policy for details.

Technical

What wallet do I need?

You can use any Web3 wallet that supports Ethereum, such as MetaMask, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet, or other compatible wallets.

Are there gas fees?

Yes, blockchain transactions require gas fees paid in ETH. Gas fees vary based on network congestion. RET does not charge additional transaction fees beyond standard blockchain gas fees.

How secure is my investment?

RET uses industry-standard security practices including smart contract audits, multi-signature wallets, and secure key management. However, all blockchain investments carry inherent risks. Please review our security documentation.

Can I track my portfolio?

Yes, the Investor Dashboard provides real-time tracking of your RET token balance, property holdings, yields, holding periods, and transaction history.

How is liquidity depth maintained?

POL (Protocol-Owned Liquidity) vault, buyback mechanisms, and dynamic fees ensure minimal slippage (≤0.5%) for token exchanges.

Risks & Legal

What are the main risks?

Key risks include market volatility, liquidity constraints, regulatory changes, technology risks (smart contract bugs, hacks), and no guaranteed returns. Real estate values can fluctuate, and token prices may not always reflect property values.

Are RET tokens guaranteed?

No, RET tokens are not guaranteed investments. They are subject to market risks, property performance, and regulatory changes. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

What happens if a property loses value?

If a property decreases in value, your RET-RWA tokens may decrease in value accordingly. Real estate investments carry inherent market risks. Diversification across multiple properties can help mitigate risk.

What are the tax implications?

Tax treatment varies by jurisdiction. RET tokens and property ownership may be subject to capital gains tax, income tax on rental yields, and other taxes. Consult a tax advisor in your jurisdiction.

Where can I find legal documents?
