The exchange resolves any disputes, enforces established contracts and covenants, and facilitates exchange of interests in Real Estate Options. As a result, such exchange can increase buyer and seller confidence in the system.

IRESE developed a system and financial structure, called Real Estate Options, which is used to originate Home Equity Protection Plan and Future Equity Agreement by registered brokers. Investors can purchase these options and trade them on the exchange.

IRESE facilitates original Real Estate Options issues via registered brokers and on-going transactions between investors. The property owner continues to own the property. In addition, IRESE maintains up-to-date information about each individual property and the associated value change based on the property’s publicly available index data. When the options are exercised IRESE guarantees the payoff and distributes money according to all the parties of record.
