Housfy has become one of proptech's greatest hits. The proptech startup, which continues to receive millions of euros in the financing, has achieved a millionaire turnover in just its first year of life.

A milestone in the Proptech market

The startup Housfy is still a solid company in the real estate market. Their proposal is simple, they do not charge you any commission to sell your house. Albert Bosch, Miquel A. Mora, and Carlos Blanco joined together to erase the fearsome transaction fees from the sector. Not surprisingly, they have already sold more than 2,000 homes and have about five daily sales. The final savings for each client is around 15,000 euros.

They themselves estimate that seven visits of an approximate duration are necessary to sell a home. That the seller pays about 20,000 euros for seven hours of work is still abuse. For this reason, they only charge 3,999 euros for the entire management. Their agreements with different banks have allowed them to become a platform where it is possible to find everything you need to buy a home and pay much less.

Also in the reform sector

The company continues to increase its services. They have just launched a vertical reform to remodel those properties that need it. That is, by contracting their services you will have the option of selling your property in perfect condition and paying a single invoice. You just have to tell them what kind of reform is necessary, wait for the visit of two professionals who take the measures and approve the start of work. During the reform process, you will have the support of an advisor so that you observe that your property is as you wish.

The company also operates in Italy and will soon do so in Portugal and France. Based on their philosophy that not everyone can open a real estate and start selling apartments, they have achieved financing of six million euros for their immediate future. Previously, they had achieved eight million euros.

Torch Capital, DN Capital, and Seaya Ventures are investment funds that are clear that the model works and that the idea can be exported to any country in the world. Making a comparison with other digital real estate agencies is still more than symptomatic. The average period of sale of a house in Housfy is 60 days. A record that has allowed the company to become the best example that any start-up can succeed whenever it comes to revolutionize any niche market.

Housefy's example is always positive for all types of entrepreneurs who want to try their luck putting into practice some of their ideas. As long as they are original and help save your potential customers, only some financing and much effort is needed to achieve the best results.
