POOLING LIQUIDITY TOGETHER

When Community Owns Supply

What happens when all of a sudden, a group of people whose interests are more than aligned, starts collecting, storing, and efficiently managing property supply?

Swix believes that giving control over property supply availability and management to the most interest-aligned communities would unlock a never-seen-before level of efficiency within the industry.

Swix will become the main bridge for real world business profit tokenisation, giving SWIX community members and investors access to healthy yields generated by one of the currently most sought after real world investment sectors, short-stay.

Why Lease Agreements and not direct ownership?

1. Capital efficiency: Since the objective of Swix DAO is to offer its community members a wide selection of curated, quality standard respecting properties, it is inevitable that a larger number of properties can be offered through lease ownership rather than full ownership, given the difference in costs.

2. Data-driven decisions: It has become clear that civilisations organise around single city centres and shift their economic centres over time. Each country and city which attracts an increasingly greater number of people who wish to benefit from their temporary, vibrant economic status, will be subject to internal forces which shape the flow of movement within them. Examples are clear when Olympics are programmed and specific city areas are selected to host accommodation and events. Those areas become a target.

3. Hedging political instability and market trends: Markets follow trends and trends are volatile and change continuously. Purchasing property brings less flexibility versus leasing one; as we have seen with recent events (Covid), being stuck with properties in countries where travel is at floor levels is highly un-productive. Lease agreements offer the benefit of cancellation in case of unpredictable natural events, as well as in other specific cases. Property ownership, on the other hand, forces owners to keep paying taxes and maintenance costs also when it is not generating revenues.
