Investing in real estate without buying an apartment: The secret of smart investors

When we talk about real estate investment, we immediately imagine buying an apartment, endless viewings, notary fees, renovations to be planned... and of course, the dreaded tenant issue. But what would you say if I told you that in 2025, it's now possible to invest in real estate without ever signing a sales agreement ?

This is not science fiction. This is the new reality of real estate investment 3.0, driven by innovative tools such as digital SCPIs , real estate crowdfunding and real estate tokens .

Welcome to the world of smart investors.

1. SCPI: Passive real estate just a click away

SCPIs (Real Estate Investment Companies) are not new, but their digitalized version has completely changed the situation.

Today, in just a few minutes, you can become a co-owner of a diverse real estate portfolio (offices, retail, senior living, etc.) starting from just a few hundred euros. All this without rental management and with an annual return often around 4 to 6%.

The magic? You receive rent every quarter, as if you were a landlord , but without the constraints.

2. Real estate crowdfunding: Funding developers’ projects, not their problems

Real estate crowdfunding is simple: instead of buying a property, you co-finance a real estate project (construction, renovation, promotion) with other investors.

In return, you receive interest on the amount invested, generally between 8 and 10% per year over periods of 12 to 36 months.

It's a way to participate in the boom in the real estate market, without borrowing or managing a property , while diversifying your portfolio.

⚠️ Of course, this remains an investment with a moderate level of risk, so you don't put all your eggs in one program. But used well, it's a formidable tool for boosting your returns.

3. Real estate token: The blockchain revolution that divides the stone

Here is the latest addition to the game: real estate tokenization . Thanks to the blockchain, a building can be "cut" into hundreds or thousands of digital shares (tokens), accessible from €10, €50 or €100 .

These tokens entitle you to a portion of the rent and the property's valuation. The result: you can invest in international, ultra-prime, or atypical real estate (hotels, coworking spaces, etc.) with just one click, with complete transparency on property and income data.

This is real estate in Web3 mode , and it's completely redrawing the investment landscape.

Why smart investors never look back?

Because they have understood one thing: today, performance comes through flexibility , diversification and technology . They prefer to invest in several projects, via reliable platforms, with a reduced entry ticket, rather than going into debt for 20 years for a single apartment .

They are building their digital heritage, stone by stone, with more peace of mind, more profitability, and above all more freedom .
