The Challenge
A Dubai-based real estate group wanted to modernise their rental business with blockchain-powered smart contract deposits, eliminating disputes and building trust with international tenants.
Our Solution
Angular frontend with a custom property search engine. Python + Django backend with REST APIs. Solidity smart contracts on Polygon for escrow deposits. Three.js for interactive 3D virtual property tours. Integrated KYC/AML verification via Onfido.
Architecture Highlights
Smart contract escrow. Tenants deposit via crypto or fiat (Stripe), funds are held in a Polygon smart contract and released automatically on lease signing or returned on dispute resolution.
Virtual 3D tours. 360° property walkthroughs that reduced in-person viewings by 60% while increasing qualified applications.
Results
$2.4M in first-quarter transaction volume. 47 premium listings onboarded. 60% fewer physical viewings. Zero deposit disputes since launch. The client expanded to Abu Dhabi and Riyadh within 6 months.
