True OTC Pricing
We work directly with major institutional trading desks to get you real-time ETH-to-USD execution. No middlemen, no slippage, no token routing.
Whether you're holding native ETH, stETH, or ETH from an NFT sale, our desk pricing reflects actual market liquidity, not DEX speculation. Your quote is the price. Period.
- Institutional OTC desk pricing & support
- Real-time pricing — not some bot-fed oracle
- No slippage, no hidden conversion fees
- ETH converted directly to fiat
- Same-day execution — wire hits escrow in hours
Proof of Funds Without Selling First
To offer as a cash buyer (so you don't need an ETH-friendly seller), you'll need to show Proof of Funds without nuking your ETH position.
RealOpen verifies your wallet on-chain and issues instant Proof of Funds — no liquidation, no taxable event, no surprises.
How to Buy Real Estate with Ethereum
1. Get Proof of Funds
We verify your ETH wallet on-chain and issue an official Proof of Funds based on your current holdings — no liquidation required.
- Secure, on-chain wallet verification
- No need to sell your ETH to show purchasing power
- Institutional-grade PDF accepted by agents, sellers, and title companies
2. Lock Your Rate
When you're ready to fund, we quote your ETH → USD conversion rate and lock it for 10 minutes — giving you price certainty while you prepare your transfer.
- Real-time ETH → USD quote based on your final cash-to-close
- 10-minute rate lock eliminates volatility risk
- Guarantees exact fiat amount needed for escrow
3. Send the ETH
We provide transfer instructions, then you send from your wallet.
- Send from any self-custodied wallet (Ledger, MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, etc.)
- Choose your gas fee — standard or priority recommended
- Trade is executed after 1 on-chain confirmation
- Full support for EIP-1559 and dynamic fee wallets
4. RealOpen Wires Fiat to Escrow
Once your ETH is confirmed and converted, funds are wired directly to escrow — just like any other real estate transaction.
- Exact USD amount wired to escrow or title company
- No crypto exposure for sellers or agents
- You get full fiat transparency, they get a clean wire
Why Not Just Dump ETH on an Exchange?
Sure, you could sell your ETH on a retail exchange...
But when it's time to close on a home, speed and precision matter. Public exchanges don't offer rate locks, have unpredictable spreads and gas fees, and impose withdrawal limits that can wreck your escrow timeline.
RealOpen gives ETH holders a direct OTC path to real estate — without the friction.
