EstateChain - Next-Gen Real Estate Platform 🏠

EstateChain is a cutting-edge decentralized real estate platform built on Ethereum blockchain. It revolutionizes property transactions through smart contracts, NFTs, and advanced features for a seamless real estate experience. This is just a basic generic idea I wanted to create, it isn't fully perfect yet but I wanted to implement it anyway
