Blockchain Home Registry (BHR): A web3 real estate platform to claim the NFT of your home

Hey Product Hunters! My name's Zach. I'm the co-founder of Torii Homes, a proptech startup on a mission to reinvent the real estate industry from first principles. We’ve spent five years building a profitable web2 product, I’m so proud of what our team has achieved so far. However during this time we’ve also come to appreciate how deeply broken and inefficient the real estate industry is, at a fundamental level. As a collaborative standard for organizing data, information, and transactions, web3 offers us the opportunity to redesign the real estate industry from the ground up. Today, we’re so excited to be making our Product Hunt and web3 debut now with Blockchain Home Registry (BHR). BHR is a platform that allows you to claim a verified NFT of a property you own, giving you access to a permanent, transferrable historical record of your home. New and rich data (ownership history, maintenance and renovation records, solar potential, etc.) is added to every property on BHR by integrating organizations across the real estate ecosystem, so you continue to learn more about your home over time. We believe that if you own your home, you should own its data too. There's an immense wealth of data related to your home that you must pay for and much of this data is completely inaccessible to homeowners. The real estate industry has always been highly fragmented and notoriously protectionist, often at homeowners’ expense. This needs to change and that’s why we’re building BHR. Homeowners on BHR will have total control over what data, if any, they want to share. If you want 100% of your data to be private, you can do that. Alternatively, you can choose to share and monetize your data with integrating organizations as well. Your BHR account and information is more secure than most banks. We've built a verification process to prove that you own your home, as well as crypto wallet and email verification - all of which are required in order to access your home’s records. Imagine a world where all of your home documents (deed, permits, building plans, title, mortgage info, etc) are easily accessible and useful. A world where all of the fixes and improvements that you invested in your home are accurately documented. A world where a solar company discounts your rooftop solar panel install or your lender refinances your mortgage automatically if rates drop. A world where appraisals happen instantaneously. A world where you can sell your home with the click of a button: you get offers with no contingencies because potential buyers can see everything about your home. That world is Blockchain Home Registry. We've been really interested in Web3 for quite some time and have loved seeing the space grow and mature in the last few years. Our belief is that BHR will bring immense utility to both homeowners and organizations within the real estate industry, providing a collaborative standard for all stakeholders, while ensuring that homeowners are kept at the center of it all. If you’re a homeowner, claim your home now (make sure to use the promo code 'PH25' for $25 off). If you don’t own a home or you’re outside of the US, we’d love your support by referring a friend, or leaving us product feedback/questions in the comments - anything is appreciated. Looking forward to sharing more!
