ZipMatch, a Bonifacio Global City, Metro Manila, Philippines-based real estate marketplace, closed a $2.5m Series A round.
The round was led by Singapore-based venture capital firm Monk’s Hill Ventures with participation from existing investors 500 Startups.
The company intends to use the funds to recruit staff and experts in real estate, computer programming, content creation, product development, and customer service, develop tools to improve the homebuying experience and expand across the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
Led by John Dang (Chief Executive Officer), Kyle Wiltshire (Chief Technology Officer) and Chow Paredes (Chief Revenue Officer), ZipMatch operates a marketplace that aims to lead prospective homebuyers into making decisions when buying their homes.
It collects and curates information about a property, which is accessible by homebuyers in a single, interactive page including overviews, available listings and photos, virtual 360° tours, property scout and user reviews, and other details and provides a feature that allows users to virtually scan through every condo building in a city.
ZipMatch concierge assesses buyers’ budget, the type of home they want, and other details to match them with brokers and home financing options that suit their lifestyle.
The company also offers tools and programs for brokers and real estate developers to find more prospective homebuyers and serve them more efficiently, such as real estate specific CRM software, and dedicated sales trainings about serving online customers effectively.
