LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – News Direct – 19 January 2023 – Property Partner, the UK’s leading fractional property investment platform, is rebranding as London House Exchange. The rebrand follows an additional £2.4m of investment from leading US digital homeownership company, Better.
With the rebrand, London House Exchange (“LHX”) reprises its original legal name since its 2014 founding and returns the spotlight to being the world’s first and leading stock exchange for individual properties. LHX has £120m of fractionalized property assets under management and over 8,000 investors from over 80 countries. Since inception, £55m of property shares have been traded on the FCA-regulated trading exchange, the only one of its kind for individual residential properties.
The new brand gives the company a clearer and more recognisable identity, one which transcends borders.
“The name London House Exchange speaks directly to what we already do and reflects our plans for a truly international trading exchange,” said Warren Bath, CEO of London House Exchange. “Only on LHX are our clients from across the world able to instantly buy and sell shares in UK properties, delivering liquidity today to an otherwise illiquid asset class.”
“Real estate is the largest asset class in the world, worth more than shares, stocks and bonds combined, and residential property makes up approximately 75% of this total. However, unlike those other asset classes, property transactions take months rather than seconds. Our mission is to successfully make property assets liquid and tradable at global scale,” said Michael Lamont, CEO of Better UK.
Market liquidity is the driving force behind a £2.4m programme of direct investment in London House Exchange by its parent company, Better Holdco, Inc. (“Better”). Better is a leading digital homeownership company that has funded over $100 billion in mortgage loans since inception, $4.6 billion in real estate transaction volume and $38 billion in insurance coverage written. Better is revolutionising the home finance industry, helping thousands to more easily find a path to homeownership through its low-cost and transparent platform.
Better’s direct investment will increase liquidity on LHX, encouraging efficient pricing and asset valuation across the platform.
“We acquired Property Partner in 2021 on account of their unique platform which allows any property anywhere in the world to be fractionalized, turned into shares and traded on an FCA regulated exchange, the only one of its kind in the world,” said Vishal Garg, CEO & Founder of Better. “Renaming the business to London House Exchange encapsulates their reason for being: the world’s first and leading stock exchange for individual properties. Enabling the purchase of shares in property from Nottingham to New York is just the beginning, and we are thrilled to support the team with this additional investment.”

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 19 January 2023 – Oasys, a gaming-optimized blockchain for gamers and developers to build on Web3, today announces the launch of its new decentralized governance framework, which will empower project stakeholders to play a leading role in determining the future of the Oasys blockchain and drive growth of the blockchain gaming ecosystem.
The governance framework is an important first step for Oasys to realize its vision of being fully decentralized and autonomous blockchain gaming ecosystems. Decentralization is one of the core tenets of Oasys, and will enable the wider gaming community to participate in the decision-making process to determine the direction and development of the blockchain.
Oasys will implement its governance framework in a series of strategic phases, starting in 1Q 2023 and continuing until 2Q 2024. This phased approach will gradually delegate decision-making authority to Oasys tokenholders in a democratic and transparent manner. The phased approach will also allow Oasys and its partners to address security and centralisation risks, leading to better decisions that will help enhance overall industry standards.
To begin, Oasys will first appoint a “Genesis Council”, an interim decision-making entity comprised of trusted partners from both the traditional and blockchain gaming industries. The Genesis Council will oversee the strategic direction and setting of decentralization standards for Oasys.
Starting in 2023, Oasys will then launch its official decision-making Council, where members will be officially appointed by the community and assigned operational roles, alongside a growing number of tokenholders. This will be an integral, final mechanism to replace the Genesis Council and delegate voting responsibilities to the public.
Oasys enjoys strong institutional support from major gaming developers and publishers, many of whom have become core validators and backers, including SEGA, Square Enix, Bandai Namco, Ubisoft, WeMade, double jump.tokyo and Yield Guild Games. Since its inception, Oasys and its partners have been fully committed to enabling tokenholders to independently participate in making key decisions on its blockchain.
Daiki Moriyama, Director, Oasys, said: “We are unwavering in our belief in the principles of decentralization, and democratizing decision-making for the wider gaming ecosystem. Oasys is at the forefront of setting standards for the future of gaming, and with our new governance framework, we hope to bring about mass adoption of blockchain gaming.”
One of the first decisions to be deliberated by Oasys’ “Genesis Council” will be to establish NFT meta-data standardization, so as to create an optimal medium for future blockchain games and metaverses, further driving the interoperability of NFTs.
