Propy enters partnership with Escrow Agent Japan to create blockchain platform

With this partnership, the two companies will create a blockchain-enabled real estate service for Japan

Propy, a blockchain-based real estate platform, has announced a partnership with one of the leading escrow providers in Japan. In collaboration with Escrow Agent Japan, Propy will launch a blockchain-based real estate transaction platform to record sales with Japan’s Legal Affairs Bureau. This will remove the existing time lag for registration, fulfilling Propy’s promise of “24-hour, 365 days closing.”

The companies will also cooperate on business development in Japan through EAJ’s H’OURS Operation Cloud, a digital platform for settling real estate deals that removes the need for face-to-face meetings. Finally, EAJ will provide Japanese localization support to Propy’s platform.

Natalia Karayaneva, CEO at Propy, sees a lot of potential in the Japanese market. “This year in April, we introduced our technology to the Japanese market for the first time by successfully completing two blockchain-based real estate deals which validated the flexibility of the platform for its future global expansion,” she noted. “By partnering with Escrow Agent Japan Co., we expect to get scaling in Japan. While we’ve been focusing on the US market, the Japanese market, being historically innovative, is a natural choice for the first step in global expansion.” 

Propy is a blockchain-based PropTech platform which uses DLT in several key applications to streamline real estate purchases. In addition to providing functionality for standard real estate listings, Propy also supports several cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH, XRP, and its own PRO token.
