About Us

About Us

Estating is on a mission. A mission to democratise real estate. We believe that everyone should have access to real estate investments, independent of their place of origin or be they investing $1 or $1m+.

Investing in the property of your choice has to be as easy as investing into the company of your choice. Just buy the quantity of securities you want via your bank or broker and hold them in your securities account. We make investing in the property of your choice inclusive for everybody, protected inside the regulated financial system, easy and fast with a high user experience.

Our work opens the door to:

  • A win for Investors – a new way of accessing real estate as an asset class they have been excluded from
  • A win for Developers – connecting them to a globe of untapped demand
  • A win for Financial Advisors – a new product to help improve their client’s portfolios

Our mission is to create a win for society – the opportunity for wealth creation opened for all. To offer the same opportunity for those with little as those with more money. To offer a range of investments from the luxurious and individual to the funding of projects with direct social impact.
