The BusinessEdit
Plusprop allows everyone to evaluate, offer and reserve their next property in one place and with confidence.
Key Features Include:
• Verified users
• Market analytics
• Home & Tenant info
• Financial projections
• Digital messaging
• Digital offering
• Digital reservation
• Compare & Matchmaking feature
Our transparent portal speeds up sales cycles, increases a seller’s visibility and simplifies an investor's search process.
The current property portals limit the amount of information a seller can provide, only target homebuyers and don't advertise properties for investment purposes.
This results in a longer sales cycle and makes the search process either very long for an experienced investor or unnecessarily hard for a beginner.
The MarketEdit
We are targeting the 1,100,000+ properties on the market, listed PA by:
• Estate Agents, 22,953+
• Developers, 2,326+
• Private Landlords selling, 157,520

Progress/ProofEdit
Our MVP is complete, onboarding customers and ready for launch as soon as our pre-seed investment round is closed.
Below is a testimonial from the leading nationwide estate agency.
“It was very interesting to hear about Plusprop. You have a very clever concept which I believe will be a useful platform for many property investors looking for more numerical details on a property from an investment perspective, than what is currently offered on all the standard portals".
We make searching and buying an investment property simple and accessible for the mass market.
A US company with similar functionality has raised £365m+ and surpassed $3bn in transactions since 2015. Plusprop has the potential to break entry into the U.K market.

Closing StatementEdit
Why will Plusprop thrive in turbulent economic conditions?
It's common for property sales to drop and prices to reduce.
By providing sellers with access to property investors and a new type of buyer, we increase their company and property's visibility which in turn increases their chances of selling a property.
We're providing them with verified leads ready to commit and expand their portfolios.
Plusprop is not selling properties, we're selling the benefits of a specific target market and the use of our new and transparent portal.
Fun Fact:
Zoopla launched in 2008, they're now the 2nd largest property portal in the U.K.
The TeamEdit
Having worked for various boutique real estate investment firms, Sebastien soon realised multiple platforms had been created to buy and sell shares in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), yet no platform has been created to help those who want to solely build or expand their own portfolio with 100% ownership.
Sebastien has already identified his immediate hires and knows how each individual will play a crucial part in driving the business to success.
Plusprop will immediately grow with a team of industry experts as soon as the pre-seed round is closed.
