A single digital platform for buying and financing a home. Huspy connects buyers, real estate agents and 25+ banks - and now moves $7 billion in property a year across the Middle East and Europe.
In most cities, buying a home means juggling three worlds that rarely talk to each other: the property listing, the real estate agent, and the bank that writes the mortgage. Huspy's founders looked at that gap in Dubai and built a company to close it. Founded in 2020 by Jad Antoun and Khalid Ashmawy, the company runs a single digital platform where a buyer can search properties, compare mortgage products from more than 25 banks, and get pre-approved - without the paperwork marathon that usually comes with home financing.
The approach has scaled fast. Huspy now facilitates over $7 billion in annual real estate transactions across the UAE and Spain, has helped more than 25,000 people buy homes, and processes over a quarter of all residential home financing in Dubai. It does all of this without owning a single property or operating a traditional branch brokerage - a detail that says a lot about how the company thinks.

Huspy is a B2B2C platform - it serves everyone in the home-buying chain at once. The logic is simple: help the agent and the banker do their jobs better, and the buyer's experience improves as a result.
Search properties, compare mortgage products across dozens of banks, and get pre-approved online with dedicated mortgage consultants guiding each step.
A digital portal that connects mortgage brokers to more than 25 banks, streamlining comparison, application and approval in one workflow.
Mobile-first CRM tools, property leads and transaction support for independent real estate professionals - more than 8,000 now use it.
AI-powered features, including a mortgage chatbot and workflow automation, to speed up quotes, applications and client management.
The problem Huspy set out to solve is friction. Home financing in the region has historically meant slow, opaque, paper-heavy processes where buyers rarely see every option available to them. Huspy's answer is transparency: put every rate and product in one place, and automate the steps in between.
What sets it apart from a traditional brokerage is the model. Huspy runs an asset-light, network-based marketplace. Independent agents source leads from marketplaces like Property Finder and Idealista while running their business on Huspy's technology. The company earns commissions and success fees from agents and banks when deals close - it does not carry property inventory or the overhead of branch offices.

The team now numbers around 750 people spanning more than 40 nationalities, working from tech hubs in the UAE and Spain. The company frames its purpose plainly: make buying a home feel like a celebration rather than a source of stress.
Huspy sits at the crossroads of proptech and fintech. On one side are property marketplaces such as Property Finder, Bayut and Idealista, which list homes but stop short of financing. On the other are banks and traditional mortgage brokers, which handle loans but not the search. Huspy stitches the two together, and in doing so competes with both - as well as with newer regional proptech players like Egypt's Nawy.
A repeatable city-launch playbook, an asset-light network of independent agents, and an early lead in AI tooling for brokers - the combination Balderton cited when it re-invested.
Operating in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Madrid, Valencia, Alicante and Malaga today, Huspy plans to reach 10+ cities and enter Saudi Arabia, targeting most major European and Middle Eastern cities within four years.
