Tl;dr
Use cadence or threshold bands to maintain targets while minimizing costs and taxes.
Set a fixed cadence (e.g., quarterly) or threshold bands. Focus on risk alignment and costs rather than frequent changes.

FAQs
Is tokenized real estate safer than crypto?
It may have lower volatility and clearer fundamentals; always read offering docs and diversify.
How do fees and net yield work?
Fees are disclosed in offering docs; measure net yield after all costs.
Can I invest from my country?
Eligibility depends on jurisdiction and product; complete KYC/AML and check local rules.
