Habitacion.com, a pioneering startup aimed at revolutionizing saving and investing through room ownership as an alternative to renting, has successfully closed a pre-seed funding round, raising €400k.
The funding round was spearheaded by SeedRocket, Spain’s premier technology-focused startup accelerator, with contributions from LANAI Partners and BeCapital Seed Money. Additionally, SeedRocket’s network of business angels and key players in the Spanish entrepreneurial community have lent their support to the initiative.
The investment will fuel Habitacion.com’s growth, with fifty percent of the capital allocated to operational enhancements and infrastructure, and the remaining portion directed towards validating the business model through initial room sales.
Established in 2023 in Madrid by Oriol Valls, Anna Labarias, and José Fernández, Habitacion.com offers clients the opportunity to own a share of property in an accessible and flexible manner. The platform facilitates the sale or rental of rooms, allowing investors to recoup their investment at their discretion.
Oriol Valls, co-founder and CEO of Habitacion.com, expressed confidence in the transformative potential of the platform, stating, “We aim to revolutionize savings by enabling customers to eliminate rental costs and accumulate wealth through room ownership. This initial funding round will propel our expansion efforts and help us realize our vision.”
Following successful room sales in Terrassa, Barcelona, and validation of the business model, Habitacion.com plans to execute multiple real estate transactions, expanding its footprint to cities across Spain, including Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Granada, and Alicante. Negotiations with strategic partners are underway to diversify the available room inventory, with a projected minimum of 40 rooms to be sold by 2024.
Since its inception, the startup has prioritized client security and satisfaction. Room buyers become registered owners of the property, offering legal security, and enter into agreements that protect their interests and regulate property usage and cohabitation.
Habitacion.com’s value proposition lies in its commitment to delivering high-quality rooms and offering logistical and management support to its clients.
