How Proptech and fintech is coming together for a smarter future - FinExtra
The fusion of Proptech and fintech is revolutionizing real estate and finance by streamlining planning, sales, lending, and property management.
Fintech, already mature, leverages AI, blockchain, and cloud tools to power digital banking and investment. Proptech, a newer field, uses similar technologies to digitize the entire property lifecycle—planning, leasing, sales, energy use, and maintenance.
Together, they’re making real estate more accessible and efficient.
Key benefits include:
Improved access to real estate investing through smarter valuation tools.
Fractional ownership enabled by blockchain, making it easier to invest with minimal capital.
Streamlined transactions like mortgages and title transfers via AI and smart contracts.
Simplified property management, improving rent collection and tenant communication.
Better sustainability through IoT-based systems that cut energy use and costs.
However, data access remains a major hurdle. Without high-quality, shareable data, innovation stalls. To unlock full potential, the industry needs open data platforms—similar to fintech’s Open Banking—ideally government or nonprofit led.
