About The Company
Huspy is one of the leading property technology companies in EMEA.
Launched in 2020, we now operate in multiple cities across the UAE and Spain, expanding into Saudi Arabia and 3 more European markets by 2026. Today, we own the largest portion of the UAE mortgage market and are one of the fastest-growing players in every European city we've entered.
We've raised over $140 million (Series A and Series B) from the world's top investors, including Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund and Balderton Capital, to reshape the homebuying journey through powerful technology and agent-first tools.
We've built a SuperApp that empowers real estate agents and mortgage brokers, bringing cuttingedge technology to one of the world's most traditional industries. We're transforming how property transactions happen faster, smarter, and better for everyone.
We're not slowing down. The question is: will you be part of what's next
