Fintech has transformed the way we invest. Not only has it made investments easy and hassle-free, it has also led to the emergence of more sophisticated investment avenues.
We take a look at SmartOwner, a start-up in the real estate space. SmartOwner was founded in 2012 at a time when the fintech revolution in India had not yet reached real estate. Headed by CEO, Vikram Chari, with previous experience running a real estate investment company in the US, SmartOwner brought together a board comprising vital cross-functional experts in technology, finance, and venture capital.
The business model
The organization is a property investment management company and marketplace. It brings together the financial expertise of a large private equity fund, the legal expertise of a law firm, and the real estate expertise of a top developer to a common platform to give real estate investors access to exclusive high-return opportunities.
