Wrapped Hotels NFT: Pioneering the fractional real-estate scene of the Metaverse

Wrapped Hotels

Wrapped Hotels is an NFT project announcing its upcoming Genesis Launch of 999 hotel rooms on the 28 of April. The multifold growth of metaverse over the past few years has been intriguing. And rest assured that this growth isn’t slowing down any time soon. By 2026, 25% of the people shall spend at least one hour daily in the metaverse, reports Gartner. This brings an opportunity for all to make money in the virtual wave. Individuals, as well as businesses, shall improve their income by building metaverse products. Moreover, about 30% of the businesses shall have metaverse products and services ready by 2026. Therefore, investing and earning in the metaverse is an exciting opportunity, especially if you are up for a long-term game. One of the key investment opportunities in the metaverse is real estate. As per a report, the metaverse real estate was valued at $0.5 billion which is expected to double i.e., $1 billion in 2022. Currently, 4 players are ruling the metaverse real estate market namely The Sandbox, Decentraland, Cryptovoxels and Somnium. The Sandbox rules the market with 62% market share followed by Decentraland with 34%. The Cryptovoxels and Somnium have a combined market share of 4%. Another report predicts, that for the next six years the metaverse real estate to grow at a CAGR of 31%. How Wrapped Hotels Will Change the Metaverse Real Estate? At present, the metaverse real estate has options for buying land, homes and workplaces. After hanging out in one place for a long time you may feel monotony. Moreover, if you want to earn income from it, you’ll have to find a person who wishes to buy or rent your place. Here come Wrapped Hotels to your rescue. If you want to know how? Let me elaborate. Wrapped Hotels is a digital hotel with each room having unique features. The project has a supply of 10,000 rooms. Further, each room has three categories for use. One of the categories is rooms, accounting for 95% of the total supply. The remaining 5% supply comprises lounges and reception desks. The project uses ‘The Sandbox’ metaverse for its’ virtual chain of Hotels. The project allots to each of its NFT holders to a deed of ownership for a room located in The Sandbox metaverse. Similar to a real-world hotel, users can rent their rooms and generate a passive income. Coming to the ambience of the rooms that are out of this world (pun intended). The project team has worked hard on the aesthetics of the room by providing over 200 jaw-dropping furniture models (traits). Also, the furniture well caters to the utility of the room. The other aspect is that no two rooms are alike and hence an element of surprise for the people renting a new room every time. How Do I Earn from Wrapped Hotels? This is a question worth asking once you have seen the mind-boggling design of the rooms. Consider, Wrapped Hotels a commercial real estate. To explain further, real-world commercial properties like hotels, malls, shops etc. attract people & businesses and in return generate income. The same is the case with this digital hotel. Initially, the project aims to crowdfund The Sandbox plot. The people crowdfunding the plot will get project NFT in return which will signify ownership of the room. As there will be 10,000 rooms, therefore each NFT will correspond to the 1/10,000 th part of the plots. Each owner shall have the liberty to monetise their part by organising events, showcasing an NFT collection, a virtual party etc. Other than this, the room owners will get additional 8% redistribution of secondary market sales royalties. This yield comes from the staking of rooms, and gets a multiplier in the form of a colour attribute; the colour of the walls represents the tower your room lies in. So, if you own multiple rooms in the same tower, you will get a higher return on investment. The ROI calculation doubles further if the rooms are on the same floor of a tower. Project Roadmap The Q1 of 2022 marks the start of the project. The Q1 shall commence with the community growth and exclusive raffles with NFT airdrops and prizes for whitelisted members. Upon reaching a sales milestone the room owners will get benefits. At 5% sales, 2 whitelisted members will get free NFTs room airdrops. The same giveaways will be conducted at 25%, 75% and 100% sales milestones. During the sale, the Wrapped Hotel team will launch a Merch store, organise giveaways, conduct paid promotions, and funds transfer to the community wallet. The Opensea royalties redistribution among the room owners will commence upon achieving 100% sales. The Q2 of 2022 will bring up the heat with land selection for hotel development in The Sandbox metaverse with the vote from room owners. This will be done by the mean of a community vote regarding the choice of lands where the Wrapped Hotels will be located on. Upon acquisition of the land, the French VoxEdit design team will import the rooms and buildings to give you an awesome experience. Upon full integration of the hotels, they will be ready for the grand opening featuring famous artists (think SnoopDog or Deadmau5 ) and brands ( Gucci and Carrefour ) already metaverse based. In the third quarter of 2022, the room owners will be able to lend or rent their rooms via the Wrapped Bookings app. The lounge and reception area owners get a fee upon getting a booking in the hotel. The excitement and elements of surprise won’t stop here but will continue with the development of the Wrapped ecosystem. You will get to know about them through the Wrapped Hotel website and our loyal community on Discord. Genesis Sale: An Opportunity for Earning Greater Returns Wrapped Hotel is giving us an opportunity to participate in the Genesis pre-sale. There are 999 rooms available for sale. 10% of the Genesis room holders will further get lucky with a free NFT Airdrop during the public sale. Increased chances of minting rare NFTs i.e., lounge and Reception Desk. Increased redistribution rate as the overall room point allocation is higher on the Genesis Presale. Thus, a higher drop rate of rare rooms also means an higher passive income redistribution compared to the Public Sale one.

About Wrapped Hotels Wrapped Hotels is a collection of 10.000 unique and finely designed rooms.Holding any of these rooms will grant you access to the Wrapped ecosystem that will include an airdrop of its equivalent structure in the metaverse as well as a passive income stream from the first quarter.

PCMA Announces Continued Nationwide Expansion with the Addition of Wyoming to our Lending Footprint

PCMA

PCMA, the pioneer and leading voice in Non-Bank Private Client Lending, announces the expansion of our Private Client services to the state of Wyoming - Company NMLS ID: 237710. The expansion of Private Client Lending into Wyoming highlights the extraordinary growth of PCMA and the continued growth in the Wyoming luxury housing and ranching markets. 2021’s median sale price was $1.8MM, followed by a strong 2021 with total home sale prices just in the Jackson Hole market (the hottest realty market in the state) reaching $2.750,705,092. Jackson Hole’s leadership in million-dollar home sales is further solidified with over 853 transactions falling between $1 million and $3 million and one property selling for over $100MM. “Horseback riding, hiking at Grand Teton National Park, skiing, Yellowstone National Park, biking, wildlife viewing and a tax friendly status are some of the many reasons why the high and ultra-high net worth are buying homes and ranches in the beautiful state of Wyoming,” said John R. Lynch, CEO and Founder of PCMA. “Over 30% of all real estate sales happened without being recorded on the MLS, something that happens more often with higher end home and ranch sales. This is further proof of the need of Private Client lending services in Wyoming and throughout the US.” PCMA’s expansion into the Wyoming market comes on the heels of both internal and external growth of the company and new subsidiaries. PCMA continues to experience an unprecedented growth of high-net-worth originations at a record pace throughout the first half of 2022 even in the face of rising interest rates. Continued growth has come with the addition of PCMA Capital Advisors and the expansion of direct and indirect origination channels. “The Private Client community looks at luxury real estate as a safe and appreciating asset that's a hedge against inflation. Furthermore, our clients are interested prime properties which are few and far between in this market, creating a strong seller's market and a need for robust lending solutions that will bring these sales forward and into the credit markets,” said Lynch. “The Collective is a streamlined approach to asset-based lending without the need to collateralize or pledge vested holdings. These bespoke flexibilities were not available to the High-Net-Worth Communities of Wyoming prior to our expansion.” About PCMA PCMA is the leading Non-Bank Private Client lending organization serving the needs of their mass affluent and high net worth clientele. PCMA offers qualified individuals and institutions bespoke lending solutions across all major residential asset classes.

GENERATION INCOME PROPERTIES REFINANCES SEVEN PROPERTIES FOR $13.5 MILLION

Generation Income Properties

Generation Income Properties, Inc. (NASDAQ: GIPR) (“GIPR” or the “Company”) announced that it refinanced seven properties for approximately $13.5 million in debt. This transaction reduces the seven properties combined loan-to-value ratio to approximately fifty four percent (54%) based on recent appraisals. The refinancing was structured in the form of two term loans: one in the amount of $2.1 million for the Company’s property in Rockville IL, and one in the amount of $11.4 million for the other six properties. The refinancing resulted in loan obligations of $13.5 million in total secured by properties leased to the following companies or their affiliates: GSA (S&P: AA+) in Manteo, NC Irby Construction (NYSE; PWR, S&P: BBB) in Plant City FL La-Z-Boy (NYSE: LZB) in Rockville, IL Best Buy (NYSE: BBY, S&P: BBB-) in Grand Junction, CO Fresenius Medical Care (NYSE: FMS, S&P: BBB) in Chicago, IL Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX, S&P: BBB+) in Tampa FL Kohl’s (NYSE: KSS, S&P: BBB-) in Tucson, AZ GIPR obtained the 10-year term loans from Valley Bank (NASDAQ: VLY) with an annual fixed interest rate of 3.85% for 5 years and amortized over a 30-year term with the first 12 months allowing interest-only payments. David Sobelman, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “With our previously stated goal to reduce our overall debt, we are pleased with the refinance of seven of our properties to transition from short-term debt to long-term, fixed-rate debt through our expanded banking relationship with VLY, an approximately $6.4 billion market cap institution. Our previously announced $25 million commitment from American Momentum Bank (AMB) now has an outstanding balance of zero, which frees us to contemplate using their commitment for future acquisitions and improves our overall capital stack. Also, as we seek to protect ourselves against the rising interest rate environment, we are able to fulfill one of GIPR’s goals of reducing our overall debt exposure. We are very grateful to VLY for their confidence in our company and look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.” About Generation Income Properties Generation Income Properties, Inc., located in Tampa, Florida, is an internally managed real estate corporation formed to acquire and own, directly and jointly, real estate investments focused on retail, office and industrial net lease properties located primarily in major United States cities.
