What is Shores?
Real property lending, tokenized. Depositors fund short-term bridge loans secured by first liens on real property in Latin America and South Florida, and hold shUSD, a vault token built on Robinhood Chain.
Where does the yield come from?
Where does the yield come from?
From borrowers. Property owners pay 13–15% on bridge loans. After fees and the split, staked shUSD targets an 8% monthly cash yield. There is no rent and no property ownership behind it.
Is the 8% fixed?
Is the 8% fixed?
No. 8% is a target, not a promise. The actual yield depends on loan performance, how much of the vault is lent out, and fees.
Do I have to stake?
Do I have to stake?

After an initial lockup, sell shUSD on the secondary market, with liquidity from LPs as well as Shores. There are no redemptions, and the price can be below NAV. See Exit.
What happens if a borrower doesn't repay?
What happens if a borrower doesn't repay?
Each loan is secured by a first lien held for the vault. The servicer works the loan and, if needed, enforces the lien. A first-loss reserve absorbs losses first; losses beyond it reduce NAV. See Defaults and impairments.
