Heimkapital raises 300 million euros

With the option of partially selling real estate, Heimkapital appeals in particular to people aged 60 and over.

Heimkapital has raised 300 million euros. According to the start-up, the backers are a consortium of credit institutions. Other investors in the start-up include venture capital firm Yabeo and business angels such as former Postbank CEO Frank Strauß.

Heimkapital relies on partial sales: while property owners still live in their homes, they can already sell up to 50 percent of their house to Heimkapital. The start-up then pays customers the sales amount. In return, Heimkapital becomes a silent partner and is paid a monthly rent of sorts for the portion of the house sold. Customers can also buy back or sell their properties. Upon the death of the homeowner, the heirs have a right of first refusal.

The start-up wants to use the funds it has now raised to buy more shares in real estate. This year, over 100 million euros are to be spent on this. In addition, Heimkapital wants to expand its team of currently just under 30 employees. The funding round follows a year of strong growth for the startup. "We have acquired a triple-digit number of customers this year and have a broadly diversified real estate portfolio. We want to continue to grow strongly, as the demand for partial sales continues unabated," says co-founder and CEO Julia Schabert about the 2021 financial year.
