Great question, and understanding this distinction is key to how ProperFi works.
ProperFi operates on a dual-token model, which separates platform participation from direct property investment.
- $PROPER Token
This is our native utility and governance token, available during our Initial Coin Offering (ICO). Holding $PROPER unlocks a range of benefits:
- Priority access to upcoming property offerings
- Platform fee discounts
- Staking rewards
- Governance voting (e.g., which markets or features we launch next)
Think of $PROPER as your membership and influence in the ProperFi ecosystem.
- Property Tokens
These are asset-backed tokens that represent fractional ownership in specific real estate deals. When you invest in a property, you receive tokens tied directly to that asset, and those tokens entitle you to:
- Monthly rental income
- A share of future appreciation
- Liquidity (ability to sell or trade on the secondary market)
Property tokens are legally tied to the LLC that owns each property, and they are completely separate from $PROPER.
In short:
- $PROPER = platform benefits & ecosystem participation
- Property Tokens = direct investment in real estate assets
This structure keeps your investments secure and compliant, while giving you more flexibility and power as an investor.
