OVERVIEW Banks and lenders make profits on mortgage interest rates from 56% of United States residents. Homeowners do not usually see any of this profit. In the US, the average 30-year fixed interest rate is 3.71% 1 An arising issue exists with the status quo. Most cryptocurrencies are fiat; they aren t backed up by anything. Blockchain technology can create a transparent record of transactions between merchants, effectively eliminating the third party s role in peer-to-peer transactions. Villa Token (VTO) holders will benefit from our ownership of real estate. Monthly rent payments will be converted into Bitcoin/Ethereum and distributed back to our token holders.
BACKGROUND Cryptocurrency is becoming increasingly popular as people begin to realize the vast potential that digital currency and blockchain technology have. Just as you would research a company and its stock before you would choose to invest, we encourage people to gain knowledge before investing in us. We aim to provide as much information is necessary for people to understand our business model and how our company-wide decisions will affect those who choose to participate. Villa Token is an ERC223 token hosted on the Ethereum blockhain. This platform has allowed our company to create its own digital currency and develop business-model specific parameters to it as well. In creating Villa Token, we asked ourselves: Why are there not more tokens that are backed up by something that apprecaites over time, and provides dividends to its token holders? And furthermore: Why are mostly all cryptocurrencies designed as fiat coins? We are confident that we have a solution. A key concept we will use to keep track of the tokens you purchase is called locking them in. Locking in your tokens grants you access to monthly paybacks. Once you purchase Villa Tokens and make the choice to lock them in, you will be asked to send them to our Villa Lock Wallet. We proide 100% transparency of this wallet. This is how we monitor your token while you are reciving monthly paybacks. For the protection of your assets, we use a thirdparty wallet that is secure. The process of purchasing Villa Tokens (VTO), locking them in, and unlocking them if you someday wish to trade them, can be seen below.

We want to reduce the role that banks play in the housing market. We will put the power of real estate ownership back into the hands of the people.

MEMBERSHIP BREAKDOWN For monthly payouts, the tokenholder will need to lock their tokens in. Monthly payouts will be given to token holders in the form of Ethereum, Bitcoin, or Litecoin. The membership breakdown structure can be seen below. If you own and then lock in 6,500 tokens, you are in the Bronze Membership Group. The same logic applies to be in the Silver and Gold Membership Groups. If you would like to unlock your tokens, you are choosing to forfeit your last monthly payout and you will receive your VTO back into your Ethereum Wallet immediately after the following payout.
