Huspy Appoints Brett Hartley-Wilson as Chief Operating Officer

July 5, 2023

Digital mortgage brokerage Huspy has appointed Brett Hartley-Wilson as the company's next COO, reporting to CEO and co-founder Jad Antoun.

It's a bit of a coup for Huspy—Hartley-Wilson is an industry veteran with a strong resume including eight years at Chinese market leader Ke Holdings (Beike) across operations and strategy, and roles at real estate platform Juwai and Vietnamese O2O brokerage Rever.

Hartley-Wilson said:

"I am thrilled to join Huspy and work alongside a talented team that is revolutionizing real estate and mortgages," said Hartley-Wilson. Huspy's commitment to leveraging technology to simplify the home buying and financing experience aligns perfectly with my own vision. I look forward to contributing to the company's growth and helping shape its future."

Huspy launched in the UAE in March 2020 and raised a Series A investment round worth €38.1M in June 2022 to launch operations in Spain, with 230 properties on its portal at the time of writing.

Huspy has acquired three mortgage brokerages in the past three years (Home Matters, Just Mortgage and Finance Lab), and has in excess of 300 employees.

We spoke to David Chamás, Country Manager for Spain at Huspy last year: here's what he had to say.
