    What happened: PREH launches tokenised fund with institutional backing

    US-based Patel Real Estate Holdings (PREH) has launched a $100 million tokenised property fund using the Chintai blockchain platform. The PREH Multifamily Fund will invest in vintage Class A multifamily housing across the top 20 growth markets in the United States, including cities such as Austin, Nashville, and Raleigh. Of the total allocation, $25 million will be initially tokenised, available exclusively to accredited investors through a secure digital interface.

    PREH described the fund as “digital-native” from the outset. That includes compliant onboarding, real-time reporting, automated capital calls and possible secondary market transfers through blockchain-enabled systems. It marks one of the most comprehensive attempts to integrate blockchain across the full investment lifecycle, enhancing transparency, efficiency, and investor control.

    This fund forms part of a larger $750 million investment vehicle. PREH is co-developing it with institutional giants including Carlyle, DRA Advisors, Walton Street Capital, RPM, and KKR. The firm says tokenisation improves access while retaining high regulatory standards, offering both flexibility and compliance to institutional and accredited participants.

    Why it is important

    Tokenisation is emerging as a transformative trend in real estate investment. By converting real-world assets into blockchain tokens, firms can reduce entry barriers and improve liquidity. Traditionally, private property deals involve long holding periods and limited exit options for investors.

    PREH believes that blockchain-based structures will address key challenges in private markets. Through Chintai, a regulated layer-1 blockchain, PREH ensures investor protection without sacrificing operational efficiency. Chintai also powers ESG-focused platforms like the R3 Sustainability Fund, underscoring its institutional credibility.

    The move comes as tokenised real estate gains traction globally. Firms like DigiShares and Blocksquare have launched marketplaces for fractional ownership of high-value assets. Meanwhile, Deloitte projects that tokenised real estate could surpass $4 trillion by 2035.

    This growth is driven by the potential to eliminate the “illiquidity discount” long associated with real estate. With the rise of secondary trading platforms, investors may soon treat property more like liquid equities. That shift could open up real estate to a wider class of investors while preserving institutional-grade quality.
