Propy, the leading blockchain-powered real estate platform has partnered with Proof, a trusted identity authorization network, to eliminate in-person notary bottlenecks and fully digitize secure home buying experience. By integrating Proof’s nationwide network of notaries directly into Propy’s platform, buyers and sellers can now securely identify themselves online, avoiding fraud and unnecessary delays.
Integrating Proof’s notary services advances Propy’s mission to digitize real estate transactions by streamlining KYC, identity fraud prevention, and document authentication within the Propy smart contract platform. Buyers no longer need to coordinate notary services separately; instead, they can schedule online or in-person notary services, track real-time updates, and securely verify their identity—all in one place.
“Buying a home should be as seamless as buying anything else online,” said Natalia Karayaneva, CEO of Propy. “By integrating Proof’s notary services, we’re adding the final oracle data point for a self-driving transaction via smart contracts. Proof has been a pioneer and a solid leader in the online notary space innovation”.
With the FBI reporting that real estate fraud is on the rise, ensuring secure property transactions is critical. Proof’s advanced authentication technology ensures that buyers, sellers, and agents are verified quickly and securely, reducing fraud risk while keeping deals moving forward. Through the integration, buyers can instantly schedule notarization without back-and-forth coordination, and choose between online or in-person notary services based on preference and location. Automatic notifications ensure users stay informed throughout the process.
“Consumers and organizations are more vulnerable than ever to fraud,” said Pat Kinsel, founder and CEO of Proof. “AI-driven deepfakes are becoming increasingly sophisticated, resulting in billions of dollars in losses. Combining Proof’s identity authorization solutions with Propy’s blockchain-powered platform will significantly reduce fraud risk while ensuring a seamless user experience.”
