“We’re taking a number of tools, previously only available to the largest institutional investors, and making them accessible to millions of Americans. To exchange a house for shares in Flock, we’re using a mechanism called the 721 Exchange, which typically takes an army of accountants, lawyers and advisers. We’ve built sophisticated systems to bring best-in-class operating efficiencies to our owners and best-in-class service to our residents.” — Flock Homes founder Ari Rubin
