Buy Real Estate With Crypto

Use crypto to buy property through a standard cash closing. Start with proof of funds, understand the process, and fund your purchase on your timeline.

Using Crypto to Buy Real Estate

Buyers can use cryptocurrency to purchase property while sellers and escrow still receive a traditional wire transfer.

Key Points

  • verify crypto holdings
  • generate a proof of funds letter
  • understand the RealOpen process
  • fund escrow using a crypto transfer
  • explore supported assets and financing paths

Start Here

Every RealOpen purchase begins with verifying your crypto holdings and preparing documentation that sellers and agents can review.

Start by generating a proof of funds letter, then review how RealOpen works before making an offer.

Understand How Funding Works

Sellers do not need to accept crypto directly. Buyers can fund with supported assets, conversion is executed through OTC partners, and escrow receives fiat.

See the dedicated crypto funding process for conversion execution, and review the crypto closing process explainer for escrow, title, and settlement mechanics.

The crypto transfer

You receive instructions and send supported assets (BTC, ETH, USDT, and more) when your transaction is ready to fund.
