A new online real estate marketplace is allowing buyers to purchase real estate everywhere from anywhere. Homebourse brings a true online store experience to buying real estate online through a simple, streamlined process. Homebourse lets buyers experience the entire buying process online, from browsing listings to closing deals.
With Homebourse, buyers can browse properties, view high-quality photos and videos, and request live video tours and inspections, so it's like they were there. They can then make an offer or make an instant purchase. Buyers pay a 1% refundable deposit and have an eight-day cancellation period to change their mind or visit the property. After the eight-day cancellation period, actions become legally binding. The transactions are completed online and usually 100% paperless, supported by Homebourse's admin staff and local law firms.
Homebourse allows real estate buyers to buy, sell, make offers, and counter-offers from virtually anywhere. No more bidding wars with a "first click, first served" policy.
The platform is launching in Florida, with plans to expand to other major markets in the coming months, including New York City, Los Angeles, Marbella, Dubai, and Cote d'Azur. The Miami-founded PropTech company is a first of its kind, bringing the convenience of online shopping to the world of property acquisition, and currently has over 20,000 listings with hundreds of thousands on the way.
"Our goal is to create the culture of online real estate trading through an end-to-end platform that transforms real estate into products, enabling anyone to buy and sell completely online," said Istvan Fehervari, CEO and Founder of Homebourse. "In a hyper-connected and increasingly remote world that continues to get smaller, we are bringing the real estate buying experience to anyone from anywhere. As for our objectives, it's no secret that we aim to be the leading global platform for online property transactions and the next PropTech unicorn."
Homebourse also provides real estate agents with the ultimate real estate selling tool. The platform allows agents to expand their buyer reach to every corner of the globe, connecting agents directly with international buyers and investors.
