Real property, onchain since 2018

Land thatmoves likesoftware.

With Fabrica, an owner places real US property in its own purpose-built legal trust, and gives the trust a key: a token on Ethereum. Whoever holds the token controls the trust that holds the title. Move the token, and the land changes hands.

Parcel to token

This land has its own trust. The trust answers to one token.

The outline is the parcel's boundary in Monterey County. The blue tile above it is its token: hold it, and you hold the beneficial interest in the trust that owns the land.

Treasuries are onchain. So is gold. Land, the oldest asset there is, still moves on paper, through escrow, over weeks. Fabrica has been changing that since 2018, not by replacing property law, but by building on it, one county at a time.

The problem

Land is among the hardest property to sell quickly or borrow against, and much of the reason is the paperwork around it.

The old way
8 steps
  1. 01Find a buyer
  2. 02Open escrow
  3. 03Order a title search
  4. 04Buy title insurance
  5. 05Draft the deed
  6. 06Notarize
  7. 07Wire the funds
  8. 08Record at the county

Typically weeks, several parties, every single time.

With Fabrica
2 steps
  1. 01Accept an offer
  2. 02One transaction: token to the buyer, payment to the seller

The property went into its trust once. After that, a sale settles in one onchain transaction; bank-funded purchases settle when the payment clears. The county record stays true.

The protocol

Fabrica does not replace property law. It retrofits it. The county keeps its records, the deed stays a deed, and ownership gains something it never had: a key that moves at the speed of software.

01County record

The land

Every parcel starts where it always has: a legal description and a record at its county. Nothing about the land changes.

02Recorded deed

The trust

The owner deeds the property into its own trust, recorded at the county like any other deed. From then on, the trust holds title.

The token ID's 8 bytes in Crockford Base32. Under the standard naming convention, a county clerk and a smart contract name the same thing.

The token

The trust agreement makes whoever holds the token its beneficiary, with the power to appoint the trustee. Under the current agreement, the holder is also the trustee by default. The token points to the exact version of the agreement it lives under.

04One transaction

The transfer

Send the token and the whole beneficial interest moves with it. No new deed, no escrow. The county record stays true, because the trust still holds title.

Walk-away test

What if Fabrica disappeared tomorrow?

Nothing about your ownership changes. The trust agreement, the recorded deed and the token all work without us. Fabrica is not a party to any trust and never holds anyone's property.

Leaving is built in. The holder burns the token and the trustee deeds the property out. Any lawyer can do it; no step needs Fabrica.

So is losing your keys, under agreement v4.0 and later. The agreement sets out a recovery path through the county record: a recorded notice, a 90-day quiet period, then a deed of distribution. No court, and no permission from us.

What the token does

Real capabilities, live today. Each one runs on the same trust and the same token, so each one works with the others.

01

Add your land

Click your parcel on the map and claim it. List it the same day: sign the paperwork now, or when a buyer commits. Nothing is charged until the land is first sold or borrowed against.

Counties that do not record electronically take a paper route.

02

Sell

List it or take offers. One transaction moves the token and pays the seller. No escrow.

Bank-funded purchases settle when the payment clears.

03

Borrow

Type the amount, pick the term, and see what you receive, the APR and the date to repay before you confirm. The DeFi lending pool holds the token as collateral only, until you repay.

04

Buy from anywhere

Sign in with email and pay by bank transfer or from account funds, dollars held as a stablecoin: no crypto needed. Open to buyers outside the US, except people on sanctions lists or in sanctioned territories.

05

Hold and trade it your way

Your wallet, a Safe, a smart wallet. A standard ERC-1155, so it lists on marketplaces such as OpenSea or trades by software. Fabrica never holds it.

06

Leave when you choose

With no loan open, burn the token and the property is deeded back to you. Fabrica charges no fee to leave; the county charges for recording.

07

Recover and pass on

Trusts on agreement v4.0 or later have a lost-key path through the county record, and v4.4 adds a named Key Successor. Owners on older versions can upgrade.

08

Build on it

A public API, a hosted MCP server any AI agent can connect to, with property cards inside Claude, and signed price quotes. Land becomes something software can read.

For agents

Read

Fabrica's hosted MCP server gives any AI agent the property catalog, parcel boundaries, the lending market, borrow quotes and every token's history. In Claude, a lookup comes back as a property card with map, photos and price. No API key, nothing to install.

Check

Each token carries its trust, its agreement version, its recorded title proof and its Property checks, with a decodable numeric encoding, so an agent can retrieve the results for further research. Property checks are a starting point for your own research, not a title search or title insurance.

Act

The token is a standard ERC-1155. An agent with a wallet can hold it, list it, buy it or pledge it, and the trust agreement already has rules for smart wallets and contracts that hold a token.

On mainnet, the server tells agents to warn their humans first: this is real land, with real legal and tax consequences, and holding the token can make you the trustee.

Beneficial interest declared personal property, a sealed corpus, a Key Successor, and a plain-language summary.

Each trust stays on the version its token referenced at mint. Owners can upgrade; the contract as deployed lets only the holder change it.

Public to verify

The trust agreement is published on GitHub under CC0, with every version since 2022 and every change, and the versions tokens reference are pinned to IPFS.

Any lawyer can read exactly what a token holder owns. The rules engine and document templates that make it work in real counties are ours to operate.

What we do not claim

A lawyer will ask. Here is the honest answer, up front.

  • The structure has not been tested in court. It was designed to work within existing property and commercial law.
  • The California Tax Counsel email is an informational analysis of property-tax change in ownership, not a ruling, and not binding.
Since 2018

The hard part was never the token. It was making the legal wrapper boring enough to trust, county by county, version by version.

  1. 2018

    First property token onchain

    June 15, block 5,795,036. An ERC-721 on Ethereum, and the start of the record on this page.

    Start of timeline
  2. 2019

    A second contract

    The v2 contract launches on Ethereum. Over its life it would carry 446 property tokens.

  3. 2022

    California tax counsel weighs in

    Tax Counsel at California's State Board of Equalization analyzes a token transfer for property-tax purposes. The trust agreement goes public on GitHub.

  4. 2023

    Protocol v3 and the first loan

    ERC-1155 tokens, county e-recording, a self-serve way to bring property onchain, and the first loan on the current protocol.

  5. 2024

    Pooled lending

    Pool-based lending goes live, with land tokens as the collateral.

  6. 2025

    Contracts in the open

    The token contracts are published for anyone to read and verify.

  7. 2026

    Trust v4

    Lost-key recovery without a court, involuntary-loss handling, and v4.4 as the default for every new token. Owners add land straight from the map, AI agents connect with a URL, and the first owner-occupied home goes onchain with its mortgage in place.

Vision

If lending works, everything else follows. Land that can be borrowed against draws lenders; lenders make land worth bringing onchain; every new parcel makes the market deeper for the next one.

Now

Land

Buy, sell and borrow against raw land: the simplest property to wrap in a trust, and among the hardest to finance the old way.

Next

Land as collateral, everywhere

A standard token with a real trust and a recorded deed behind it: the real-world collateral onchain lending has been missing.

Later

Homes

The same structure, extended to residential property once land has proven it at scale. The first owner-occupied home went onchain in October 2026, with its mortgage in place; broad residential support is planned, not live.
