Welcome to Blockchain Housing Cooperative Management! This project aims to leverage blockchain technology to provide an efficient, transparent, and secure platform for managing housing cooperatives.
Traditionally, housing cooperatives have faced challenges in areas such as record keeping, transparency, property ownership transfer, and fund management. Our project addresses these challenges by harnessing the power of blockchain technology. We are creating a decentralized application (DApp) that will maintain a record of all houses owned by the cooperative, track the owners of each house, and handle transactions related to these properties, all in a secure and transparent manner.
This platform will use smart contracts - self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement directly written into code. For our project, we'll be using Solidity for Ethereum blockchain and PyTeal for Algorand blockchain. These smart contracts will handle tasks such as adding new houses to the cooperative, changing ownership, and managing funds for house purchases.
Our project will offer benefits like improved transparency, as every transaction will be recorded on the blockchain and can be audited. It will also increase efficiency, as transactions and changes of ownership can be handled within the blockchain without the need for a middleman. Lastly, it ensures higher security and trust as the blockchain ledger is immutable and every transaction can be traced and verified.
The end goal of this project is to revolutionize how housing cooperatives are managed, by bringing them into the digital age and making them more secure, efficient, and transparent. Whether you are part of a housing cooperative, interested in the potential of blockchain technology, or just curious to see how decentralized applications can be used in new and exciting ways, we invite you to join us on this journey of innovation.

This program stores a house as a Local state (associated with the sender's address) and the creator (the contract creator) as a Global state. Only the creator can set the owner of the house or add a house to the ledger.

This is an open-source project by the Block Foundation.
The Block Foundation mission is enabling architects to take back initiative and contribute in solving the mismatch in housing through blockchain technology. Therefore the Block Foundation seeks to unschackle the traditional constraints and construct middle ground between rent and the rigidity of traditional mortgages.
