Closing with crypto
RealOpen fits seamlessly between the blockchain and the existing real estate infrastructure. You fund by sending a crypto transfer, but for sellers, agents, and escrow companies: you're a cash buyer. No crypto clauses, no contract mods, no seller headaches.
You send crypto and escrow receives a wire.
The RealOpen closing flow
Crypto to fiat en route to escrow
Once your purchase offer is accepted and it's time to fund the purchase:
- You send us the purchase contract + escrow wiring instructions
- We provide you with a crypto deposit address + required crypto amount
- You send crypto (BTC, ETH, USDT, etc.)
- We convert to fiat via prime OTC trade
- We wire to escrow on your behalf
- Escrow closes as a typical cash transaction
No ambiguity, no exchange withdrawal limits, and no bank headaches. The process is simple and secure.
You're in control
No fighting with a crypto exchange about withdrawal limits
You decide how and when to fund:
- Send all funds in one transfer, or break it into chunks
- Fund on closing day, or take advantage of favorable trading days during escrow
- Pay your earnest money deposit via RealOpen or handle it in cash
Send your crypto from any wallet type: hosted, self-custody, multisig, cold storage.
What escrow sees
A typical cash transaction.
Escrow receives a standard incoming domestic wire with reference details. They never touch any crypto, so nothing is different from their perspective. Upon request, we're happy to provide escrow with a Third-party Funding letter that confirms we are sending your money per your direction.
What the seller sees
A typical cash sale.
RealOpen was created to eliminate friction. The seller sees:
- A verified buyer with crypto-backed Proof of Funds
- A traditional contract (no crypto language required)
- Escrow funded in fiat
No friction.
Speed, security, and convenience
Take the crypto off-ramp express lane.
We work exclusively with top-tier OTC desks and compliance partners:
- Realtime compliance checks
- Institutional-grade prime pricing
- Support for large transaction amounts
- Conversion + wire typically processed in a half day
We make closing with crypto simple, fast, and painless — for everyone involved.
Whether you're holding BTC, ETH, or stablecoins — RealOpen turns your crypto into real estate without the friction. Create your account, verify your identity, and become a verified cash buyer in minutes.
