Can we build more houses than we've ever built, every year, for a generation? Loved being in a room full of #proptech entrepreneurs today, speaking on whether proptech can help solve the housing crisis? Here's my recap 👉 🏠 Australia is the most unafforadable housing market in the world, as a ratio of wages to property prices (@demographia) 🏠 Property prices have doubled in a decade, while wage growth only increased 1.4% 👉 Making home ownership accessible requires new thinking and new models. Mondus Capital's shared equity model makes it possible for home buyers to get into homes without saving for a deposit. As for #proptech? Technology is a core accelerator for how we assess credit and risk for the home owner, the property and the home, and it can help us mitigate risk by assessing different factors that go beyond traditional banking processes. Tech is never silver bullet but in this case can help move much faster, and get steps towards housing ownership. Always energised to be in a room full of #proptech entrepreneurs.

"No real estate experience" should be a warning sign. So many tech real estate investment vehicles with little to no real estate experience at the helm. Let's hope Landa can turn this ship around. #cre #commercialrealestate #experience #creprofessionals #investmentproperty #investmentproperties #incomeproperty #incomeproperties #investmentrealestate #hnw #hnwi #hnwis

At Canapi Ventures we've spent a LOT of time over the past 18 months digging into the wealth space (as some of you are probably sick of hearing about by now 😉), but we think it's justified: with $80T+ set to transfer between generations, the need for smarter, scalable solutions in wealth management has never been greater. But in order to leverage those new technologies and capture value from wealth clients, you first need to actually win clients, which is often easier said than done. Luckily for all the advisors out there, Farbod Nowzad and Eshan Govil are on the case! Cashmere is redefining prospecting with AI-powered lead generation and prospect engagement, saving wealth management firms time by surfacing the right prospect, to the right advisor, at the right time. We couldn't be more excited to partner with Farbod, Eshan and the rest of the Cashmere team as they build the future of advisor-client engagement and help wealth teams of all shapes and sizes navigate the the Great Wealth Transfer. See below for more on why we're thrilled to be leading Cashmere's Seed financing round, with participation from Benchstrength, Plug and Play Tech Center, The House Fund and Courtyard Ventures https://lnkd.in/eVmgM9QD #wealthmanagement #futureofwealth #GreatWealthTransfer #AdvisorTech CC: Jeffrey Reitman

What investors should look Out For When Investing In Real Estate Investing in real estate comes with a unique set of risks and rewards that every investor should carefully consider. Here are key factors to ponder before taking the plunge: * The location of a property is crucial as it determines its desirability, which in turn influences demand and pricing. Opt for neighborhoods with local amenities and quick property turnover to ensure a good investment. * Understanding the valuation of a property is essential to gauge its worth and potential for appreciation or depreciation. Valuation impacts financing options, insurance costs, taxes, and overall investment viability. Conduct thorough research to avoid over or undervalued properties. Make informed decisions and conduct due diligence to navigate the dynamic real estate market effectively.

Another brilliant #branding example of what happens if you have a free market economy with no GLCs, a great idea, hire the right people, develop a clear strategy and stick to it (their only real problems were when they deviated from the plan) have a few lucky breaks and invest in your #brand. In the mid 2000s, the property portal market was was worth US$1 - 2 billion dollars and profit margins up to 70%. Those margins have adjusted slightly but they are still huge. Less than 20 years after starting in an expats backroom in #Singapore, 2 years after going public, Property Guru has been sold for US$1.1 billion. #branding #entrepreneurship #Malaysia Marcus Osborne https://lnkd.in/gS3ZEt6T

How much data guides decision-making throughout a founder's or company's journey? As companies grow, investment decisions evolve from intuition to being highly data-driven. Challenges amplify during the growth and pre-exit stages, where optimising cap tables and providing win-win exits for investors and founders become critical. At planD, we simplify secondary market access and ensure compliance with standards like consumer duty, helping founders navigate these complex stages efficiently. This was one of the valuable lessons shared at "From Angels to Exits – How Entrepreneurs and Investors Should Think About Funding Stages," hosted by Entrepreneurship and Private Capital at London Business School a few weeks ago. Here’s a summary on how the role of data evolves across funding stages: 1️⃣ Early Stage (10% Data-Driven): At the beginning, data takes a back seat to vision and qualitative factors. Founders navigate market sizing, execution risks, and competitive landscapes with limited metrics to guide them. 2️⃣ Product-Market Fit (50% Data-Driven): With traction building, metrics like CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost), LTV (Lifetime Value), and financial projections become essential. These insights enable scaling and resource optimisation. 3️⃣ Growth (75% Data-Driven): Scaling demands data-backed decisions around capital requirements, exit scenarios, and secondaries for early investors. Founders must balance growth ambition with detailed, metric-driven strategies. 4️⃣ Pre-Exit (95% Data-Driven): At this stage, nearly every decision relies on data. Exit scenarios, market dynamics, and capital market conditions take centre stage as teams prepare for smooth transitions into post-exit phases. 💡 Navigating these stages? planD is here to support you with smart exit alternatives and diversification, especially when things don't go according to plan!
