Magma Partners leads pre-seed round for Plaza
We’re thrilled to lead Plaza's pre-seed round and support he entire Plaza team in their mission to empower real estate brokerages with AI assistants.
Houm is a platform for property owners to advertise their properties through an online marketplace. Potential tenants can book a virtual tour of a property through the platform, and after deciding on a place, can sign a lease without the need of a co-signer. The proptech also uses AI algorithms to recommend an optimal rent value to owners for their properties.
Houm was founded by Benjamin Labra and Nicolas Knockaert in September 2018 in Chile. Magma Partners recently participated in a round with Fen Ventures and Fondo Alerce where Houm raised $1.3M.
The startup plans to expand further into the Chilean market, hire additional staff, and improve the platform’s technology with the most recent round of funding.
