The team has come up with a whirlwind of new ideas this week. We have decided to not only do a token, but also our own in-house-network. We have welcomed a wonderful blockchain developer and good friend to our team, welcome aboard Mike. I believe a token itself limits our abilities to revolutionize the world of real estate, and everything housing related so our own in-house-network will take care of that. Now we will spend the next few weeks thinking about which parameters are important to us in programming this.
Also welcoming onto the team: Sarah. Sarah will be a business adviser and with her extensive blockchain knowledge, will also help our developer with these important parameters.

This week we hit a huge milestone. So far my team has contacted and talked to over 15 lawyers. Real Estate, asset protection, international, tax, corporate, you name it. But we hit gold when we found Lora. She is a securities lawyer and sounded very interested in our project when we had our initial consultation. In just 15 minutes, we learned more from her about cryptocurrency and the SEC than in the months of research we've done ourselves. She will be our point person going forward in terms of filling our private placement and Form D (reg D) with the SEC. Welcome on board Lora, were' so glad we found you.
In other news, we reformatted our white paper, hired an editor to look over our web site and other formal public facing content and he has some great feedback for us. Thanks Nick.
We are now looking to beef up our blockchain developer team so if you're interested in working with us and have that type of background or passion, please contact me allison.peck@villatoken.com

Hi everyone! Allison here, your intrepid CEO, with your first look at what we have been up to.
REAL ESTATE
This week we have a lot going on. Julie went to a real estate (R.E.) conference and asked around about how R.E. agents there think blockchain tech and crypto might disrupt the R.E. world. Crickets from everyone she said. That is great for us because it means we are disrupting a market untouched by crypto.  Aside from that, she gathered a ton of useful material for us on capitalization rate. Cap rate is an important metric our team is going to use when we choose which investment properties to purchase for this project. Here is a link in case you're as curious as I am about this topic.
SWITZERLAND
Nagip has found us 2 apartment complexes that are under construction in Switzerland (no property taxes) that will be up for sale in the coming months. We have our eyes set on these properties, 22 apartments total, because they would bring in a great monthly revenue from rent that we could give back to token holders. There is a store on the bottom floor of these buildings that we could turn into an office (commercial real estate rental).
OUR ICO
I have been looking into different ICO launch service companies that provide structure for us and safety for you during the ICO process. I will be speaking with Tokensoft (American company), CoinLaunch (Canadian company), and S-Pro (Russian company). Its so great to see the entire world (minus a few) coming together to get this new tech off the ground.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned.
