Welcome to our proptech startup! With our founders' 17 years of international background in real estate, buyer advisory, luxury experience and digital services, we're here to bring a fresh perspective to the vacation home market. Our focus is on shifting the balance towards the buyer's experience. We're determined to create a future where the European and Global vacation home market is integrated, transparent, and trustworthy. Our aim is to make the research, selection, and buying process as simple as any other modern-day experience. More precisely, we offer blue-chip properties and objective insights for vacation home buyers and investors. Our unrivaled combination of experts, 200+ local partners and data-driven research steers clients toward confident decisions and comfortable buying experience. Currently, our portfolio features curated properties in prime locations, including: - Costa del Sol - Lisbon & Algarve - Dubai While historically Costa del Sol was recognised as a prime destination for foreign vacation homes, the economic and geo-political turbulences made South-West Europe and Costa del Sol in particular very attractive for foreign investment, which increased with 65% in 2022. This led to a sustained capital growth in the region of 12.5%/Year and 3.2% only during Q2 2023. On top, Costa del Sol offers 320 days of sun per year and mild climate to enjoy the West Mediterenean Sea views. We have exciting plans for the future, as we look mid-term to a funding round to expand into new and desirable vacation home areas like Alps Winter Resorts and Cote d'Azur. Join us as an early investor, customer or colleague. We’re on an exciting journey as we introduce new positioned research and advisory services, and work towards making vacation home buying more seamless and enjoyable.
