COMPANY: HOMEBASE

Homebase (YC W21) is a real estate technology company from Singapore that aims to solve one of the biggest socio-economic problems of our generation: Homeownership. 

Our obsession with executional excellence, asymmetric access to international capital, and relentless, world-class talents are our unfair advantages that made us the most valuable proptech in Vietnam within a mere span of just 3+ years.

We are backed by leading global investors, such as Y Combinator, VinaCapital, Goodwater Capital, Ace & Co., and Antler; and are advised by founders and senior executives from some of the world’s largest and most successful tech companies, such as Alibaba, PropertyGuru, Opendoor, and Divvy Homes.

We are currently experiencing an extremely exciting time. We’ve recently announced our $30 million fundraise from leading global investors making us one of Southeast Asia’s most valuable real estate technology startup. We’ve seen increased recognition by international press including VNExpress, Forbes, and Vietcetera of the impact that Homebase is making across millions of lives. 

Homebase’s team hails from prestigious international organizations, such as Harvard, MIT, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, University of St. Gallen, etc. We believe in hiring only top talents and historically accept only ~1% of all applicants. As a company, we are forward-looking and embrace diversity.
