1. REDUCING FRAUDReal estate fraud costs unwitting buyers millions of dollars each year.Criminals are able to fake title ownership, often simply by using editing software to stipulate transfer of property ownership in their favour, and at negligible expense. Indeed, title insurance itself is a $20 billion industry, and Lifthrasir estimates that at present it is costing around $1 billion to combat title fraud.“Forgery of documents showing someone is the owner of a property but really is not is one major problem. It’s been reinvented with technology as the duplicating of notary stamps and grant deeds is much easier with the use of the Internet.”Paul Barbagelata, owner of Barbagelata Real Estate in San Francisco told MarketWatch.One of the most common types of real estate fraud is rental scams.As reported by Morgan Brennan from Forbes, one of the most common types of real estate fraud is rental scams, in which a scam-artist will copy details and photos from a real listing, then re-post on another site while posing as the agent responsible for the property. The crook will then ask for money up front from interested parties — as a security deposit or a fee for their “services” — or request that funds be transferred to a third party (who is part of the scam) as proof of available funds to make the purchase. The unwitting buyer is unlikely to see a dime of this money again.Blockchain as proof of existence; proof of ownership; proof of transaction; proof of exchange; proof of value in any form of proof, is where this technology is showing its strength.Replacing paper proof with digital proof is the heart of blockchain technology and it’s where most blockchain start-up companies are focusing.Everledger is leading the pack, as it has addressed a very specific issue with a smart solution.Blockchain technology would allow you to upload your land title documentation to the network, which other users can record and verify if needed. This would provide proof that you are the first owner of the documents, and decentralised network verification would prevent forgery. When it’s time to transfer your title, the document simply requires ‘rehashing’ (encrypting) by you to prove he/she is in possession of the document.The elimination of costs associated with title insurance and fraud, according to Lifthrasir, is the biggest advantage of using blockchain.Companies such as Everledger are currently trying to solve this problem in the Diamond industry.Image source: EverledgerEverledger was created by Leanne to address this issue, and was one of the companies selected by Barclays for coaching through the Techstars program in the Barclays Accelerator. Everledger offers a permanent ledger for diamond certification and related transaction history on the blockchain, and acts as verification for insurance companies, owners and law enforcement.2. DISINTERMEDIATION (THAT MEANS CUTTING OUT THE MIDDLEMAN)Do you like these parties leeching off of you?1. Brokers2. Government property databases3. Title companies: Insurance and property databases4. Escrow companies5. Inspectors and appraisers6. NotaryThese middlemen exist because they hold information (The keys) that you can’t access or have skills/ licenses you don’t have that needed are needed to operate in the existing property transaction ecosystem.With a Public blockchain you can distribute a database where anyone can record information, without it being censored, and without needing permission. Equally, anyone can access that information. (Transparency)For example:Prior to the internet, the government and title companies were necessary to verify and record property data.How can Blockchain technology replace these middlemen?Blockchain will enable every property, everywhere, to have a corresponding digital address that contains occupancy, finance, legal, building performance, and physical attributes that conveys perpetually and maintains all historical transactions. Additionally, the data will be immediately available online and correlatable across all properties. The speed to transact will be shortened from days/weeks/months to minutes or seconds.– Jason Ray, Nov 2, 2015.CURRENT WAY OF DOING THINGSThe title to a property is a piece of paper. To transfer a property, you fill in the blanks on a deed, sign it with a pen, drive to a notary who puts their rubber stamp on it, and then drive this paper to your local government office to be placed in their database.Do you see the problem here?It’s SLOW and archaic. Too much time and money is wasted. Especially tax payers moneySOLUTIONBitcoin or Ethereum can create a digital title. This is a cryptographically secure token that can be transferred as effortlessly, quickly and cheaply as an email. Once people can easily verify property records themselves and transfer a title digitally, brokers, escrow companies, title insurance companies and notary publics will follow the decline of the post office.3.MONEY 2.0Bitcoin is a digital currency. Ethereum has its “Ether” token (Think of it as another currency) . Unlike the Dollar, blockchain currencies aren’t paper that are later represented by software, but are 100% computer code.The power of cryptocurrency is you can program it to escrow and distribute itself. With fiat (Non-crypto) money, you need humans and banks.THINK ABOUT THISWhen you want to rent an apartment, the landlord takes your security deposit in case you damage the property.By law, he’s supposed to keep the funds in a separate escrow account and not spend it. Once the lease ends, the tenant has to rely on the good faith of the landlord to return the deposit. But if you’ve ever attended small claims court you know how frequently this human/trust-based system fails.Me as a renter and owner have gone through both sides of the coinA) Never getting back the depositB) Tenant trashes the place and your deposit only cover 1/10 of damages.Either way, it’s a bad situation. No Bueno!Bitcoin has a function called multi-signature. In bitcoin, you use your private key to approve the sending of the digital currency to another person. With “multisig,” you can create a transaction with three private keys, where at least two are required for spending.Cryptocurrency can be used to create a programmable escrow. Instead of sending the landlord dollars to a bank account, the tenant and landlord create a multi-signature transaction. The tenant and landlord each has one private key, and a third one is given to neutral third party (Arbitrator). For the security deposit to be spent, two out of the three people will need to use their private key. The funds are locked in crypto-escrow for the duration of the lease.By using cryptocurrency, real estate escrows can be done more securely, quickly, and cheaply. Bitcoin is Money 2.0 also because it’s censorship-resistant.Bitcoin isn’t held in bank accounts but in a digital wallet stored on your computer or smartphone.Image Source: randomdirections4.SMART CONTRACTSUsing smart contracts based on blockchain technology, assets exchange could follow specific instructions.Property transactions could be added on a blockchain in a similar way to how payments between parties are handled using digital currencies like Bitcoin. Every ‘coin’ represents a unique house or piece of land and exchange is just like in any other transaction using digital currency.It is expected that a blockchain based business in real estate will not happen overnight. While the technology offers some exciting prospects for the future, streamlining such an innovative protocol with a very administration-based industry will take several years.Chris Groshong is the founder and president at CoinStructive, a San Diego-based Bitcoin and blockchain consultant focusing on merchant integration. He is in the process of building a platform for homeowner’s associations and community governance using smart contracts.“Smart contracts can add transparency of funds, voting and help automate CC&Rs, which can in turn alleviate time spent dealing with legal issues.”Smart contracts can also be used to aggregate inputs from various “oracles” and serve as a progress monitor for a real estate transaction. An oracle is a third party that is trusted by the participants in the blockchain. It can be something like a known API or another blockchain. An oracle could track the progress of the assembly of the various executed documents necessary to create a legally enforceable real estate transaction.”THE ADVANTAGES OF A USING SMART CONTACT OVER A TRADITIONAL CONTRACT ARETrustless – The open-source nature of the Smart contracts means that it will execute exactly as the source code dictates. This allows one entity to confidently transact value directly with another entity without relying on a third party to stand between them and ensure that each honours the transaction agreement.Autonomous – A Smart contract exists on a Blockchain where it will self-execute according to the pre-agreed contract conditions without any direct human involvement.Self-sufficient – Smart contracts are stored permanently on a Blockchain where they have all the resources permanently available to them in order to execute and remain in existence. Once published a smart contract becomes irrefutable, irreversible and unalterable. This means that all participates have very high confidence in execution surety of the process.5. EXPERIENCEBlockchain technology provides a better opportunity for more accurate tracking of customers and owners histories, across borders and banks, reducing the risk of defaulters. Blockchain technology can contain a huge amount of data, including entire contracts. The impact of “smart contracts” will have a profound impact. Smart contracts eliminate the middleman, such as a legal firm, as payment will happen based on certain milestones being met. By its very nature, the smart contract is easily enforceable electronically, creating a powerful escrow by taking it out of the control of a single party.CONCLUSIONThe transformation is not going to happen overnight. Blockchain technology is still very early (Think internet in the 90’s), and it will take the examples of forward-thinking real estate firms to lead the way and convince the masses that blockchain is the correct path to take.

We’d all like to use our time efficiently — however that translates for us: waste less time refreshing social media we ultimately don’t care about, split screens to compare data without flipping between pages, or getting our 10-year plan into the day-to-day so we can feel more productive instead of just busy.It’s easy to stretch a task that could be done in 40 minutes into an all-day event, especially with the introduction of the internet, but that’s not a very satisfying way to live. It also doesn’t maximize your talents or ensure that you’ll grow at the kind of rate you might like to see when you’re looking back on what you’ve achieved in life.Below are nine productivity tools that will help you turn your abstract goals into achievable, actionable items for your day-to-day life.1. StayFocusdLet's start with the basics. Remember those distracting tabs you still have open and are tempted to switch over to in between paragraphs? Yeah, let's get those out of the way. StayFocusd is a Google Chrome extension that allows you to block certain sites from your browser. You can set your working hours during the day, choose which sites you want to avoid, and StayFocusd will do the rest.If you really need to bunker down, you can "go nuclear," and the app will do a hard block of as many sites as you choose for a set amount of time, even shutting you out from the whole internet if you need.2. ProofHubProofHub is a task and project management app with inbuilt time tracking which puts teamwork and organization at top priority. Coming with an internal chat system, calendar, proofing, task and project creator and manager, along with various views for your team means that everyone will know what they should be doing and when. You can even track the progress of your and also of your teammates by tracking every min/hour they spent on any task.3. TopTrackerRecently launched by Toptal, the world's leading network of elite freelance developers and designers, TopTracker is a great app for, well, tracking your work. It feature both a clean, intuitive web interface and desktop app, allowing both individuals and teams to create projects, track their productivity, and easily identify areas for improvement.Designed with the needs of the freelance community in mind, its advanced features allow you to have full control of what you track and how often. Best of all, it's totally free and is a completely stand-alone app.4. ProducteevNow, let's say you're the manager of that team we've been talking about. You don't want to be a bad boss and lord over your team members every day, but you do want to make sure they're being as productive as you hired them to be. Of course, you can't necessarily control their every move during the workday, but you can use programs like Producteev to help manage all your tasks in an efficient, comprehensive way. Producteev's platform allows you to break up a team into tasks, assigning each member a specific task under the umbrella of a whole project. Then, you can keep track of the progress of each team member's task in a way that allows you to always keep an eye on the big picture.5. MiniNoteNow, you've got your team members all in line, but you need a little help staying on task with your own personal work. Don't worry, there's an app for that. MiniNote is a clever little checklist-like tool that sits in the top right hand of your screen and reminds you of all the tasks you need to tackle. There's a "lock" function that displays the MiniNote platform on top of any other programs you have open, and the in-depth note-taking features allow for thoroughness on a simple, easy-to-look at, non-intrusive platform that serves as a gentle reminder to stay on task.6. Google DriveHopefully you're already aware of Google's fantastic array of Office-like offerings, but if you're not, get with the program. Drive, Google's cloud-based storage app, can be another huge productivity boost for you and your team. With easy sharing functions and a great range of collaborative tools, Google Drive can drastically cut down on little inefficiencies like lost email attachments, incompatible file types, and storage limits. Drive offers lots of space, compatibility with many file types, and ease of use across platforms, all for free.7. WunderlistNow that you've got your team organized, it's time to take a swing at your personal productivity. My guess is that if you're anything like me you have three different stacks of sticky notes, all with a different to-do list of tasks you either completely forgot about or don't remember assigning yourself in the first place. Well, if that's your issue, then you need to acquaint yourself with Wunderlist. It's an app that puts all your to-do lists in one place and lets you subdivide tasks and add notes to each. It syncs easily between calendars on your phone and computer, making it the ultimate digital planner.8. IFTTTI'm not certain exactly how you say this acronym, but it helps to know that it stands for "If This, Then That," and it's a very clever program that helps streamline all sorts of productivity functions. IFTTT combs through your basic daily computer movements and detects patterns, and then it automates those patterns for you. It's great for optimizing social media, but it can cook up any number of "recipes" for your daily technology use, making it super helpful in shaving off precious seconds of work time.9. Rescue TimeRescue Time is a great app for helping you figure out where you need to cut out distractions in your life. This app tracks the programs and sites you spend the most time on and includes some pretty great analytics, such as most productive hours of the day and best days of the week for you to do work. If you can tell you're being distracted from your work but can't pinpoint where the distraction is coming from, then Rescue Time is the app for you.
