Blockchain and Smart Contract Overview
Blockchain
A blockchain is a digitized, decentralized, public or private ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions. Originally developed as the accounting method for the virtual currency Bitcoin, blockchains – which uses what's known as distributed ledger technology (DLT) – are appearing in a variety of commercial applications today. A block is the ‘current’ part of a blockchain, which records some or all of the recent transactions. Once completed, a block goes into the blockchain as a permanent database. The blockchain was designed so these transactions are immutable, meaning they cannot be deleted. The blocks are added through cryptography, ensuring that they remain meddle-proof: The data can be distributed, but not copied.

Smart contracts
A smart contract, also known as a crypto-contract, is a computer program that directly controls the transfer of digital currencies or assets between parties under certain conditions. Smart contracts are complex and their potential goes beyond the simple transfer of assets: being able to execute transactions in a wide range of fields, from legal processes to insurance premiums to crowdfunding agreements to financial derivatives. Smart contracts have the potential to disintermediate the legal and financial fields; in particular, simplifying and automating routine and repetitive processes for which people currently pay lawyers and banks sizable fees to perform.

BASE Token 
Our platform is based on 2 values of unit
BASE token, which can be kept in any Ethereum based smart/cold wallet, is an ERC20 based blockchain token with vesting functions. BASE token are created on token sale backed by a smart contract and will be on a fixed volume basis, which are stored in any Ethereum ERC20 base wallet. Equitybase platform does not restrain investors on minimum investment or holding period.

BASE Token growth strategy
To provide an escalated growth to the platform, the company will introduce the reserved BASE tokens 6 months after the lock period is passed, we will implement a well-executed strategy in order to maintain a stable token price.

Equitybase's Hybrid Market platform will offer simple, transparent and direct property investments. That removes the uncertainties usually encountered by individual investors and enabling virtually anybody to build a real estate investment portfolio that delivers predictable and consistent returns without a lock-in period. Project sponsors and developer around the world would also be able to utilize our platform with identical functionality.

Equity Invest  
Equity Invest will be based on Etherum smart contract that represents the property acquisition (We call this REAL Estate Offering or REO). All calculation of returns is based on suggested hold period on each specific deal.
  • REO ID and type of offering 
  • Funding Amount 
  • Suggest Hold Period 
  • Target annual cash rate, target IRR, target equity multiple 
Real Estate Offering or REO will represent the shares on each property. Each investor will be able to exchange or liquidate their holdings for the property’s participations through our equity exchange platform. REO will also be tradable inside equity exchange platform. So, any investor will be able to transfer and sell their investment to gain liquidity. The REO holders will automatically receive the principal investment plus the ETHER corresponding to the profits of the sale of the property.






Equity Exchange
Equity Exchange enables fractional trading of real estate asset or real estate fund similar to stock market without a lock-in period. 

Equity Reserve 
Equity Reserve will enact as a secondary reserve operator which provides an additional layer of liquidity to the Equity Exchange platform, it will be utilize as a reserve pool to continuous enable platform users to liquidate their holdings with guarantee buyback on the exchange.

Equitybase APP 
Equitybase app connect users to the blockchain by utilizing smart contracts, users will be able to access their assets and investment information, which values are recorded in the ledger of the blockchain.

Investment Stack

The capital investment types outline the relationship between the equity and the debt. The lower down on the stack the lower the risk to that capital, and vice versa as you move higher up.
The capital stack represents all the different types of capital invested into a real estate asset and the relationship between each category.





Capital investment 
Equity: Represents an ownership interest in the asset. 
Debt: Loan given to the equity ownership and typically collateralized by the asset itself or other assets of the equity owner.

Debt
Debt is always lower down on the capital stack and therefore senior to the equity, meaning that it is first to be paid back. Most real estate debt is provided by traditional lenders, such as banks, that take the senior secured position.

Common Equity
Equity investors, unlike debt, participate in the success of the investment, meaning that their upside or potential returns are not capped but can increase or decrease depending upon the performance of the investment.

Preferred Equity
As a hybrid structure, this type of investment is senior to traditional equity investment but subordinate to the debt. Often the return structure is also a hybrid between true equity and debt, where mezzanine/preferred equity investors receive a fixed annual payback over a specific investment term but potentially can participate in the upside or continued success of the investment.

Equity Fund 
Equity Fund mission will be acquisition, development and management of commercial real estate assets through: careful selection, curation, value investing and impeccable portfolio management. Equitybase will mainly focus on midsize assets between $5-100 Million USD.

We utilize a value-added investment strategy; value-added investing has tended to producing higher returns over the long term to property value along with passive income.By carefully selecting the real estate portfolio, Equity funds intend for long-term value and revenue generation. Equity Fund seeks to attain competitive purchase prices, and offers tailor-made leases and repositioning of asset.

Focus:
  • The implementation of a diversified portfolio of top quality commercial properties which create high return rate for residual income and capital gains. 
  • Identifying of value-added investment opportunities and projects to generate fixed income on the interim while higher rate of return once renovation completed.
  • An investment analysis aimed at generating higher value through focusing on quality assets in prime locations with the potential to generate steady and sustainable cash flows.
  • Redevelop urbanize property into a viable mixed-use or commercial project to generate substantial returns for its participants.  
We will mainly focus on Value-Added and Ground-Up development within the targeted cities.
