I've been hearing more and more about Habi, especially amongst founders building in emerging markets. Interesting model; not easy (real estate) but could be incredibly lucrative with a strong moat at-scale:

Habi, a Colombian proptech startup founded in 2019, uses an iBuyer model like U.S.-based Opendoor $OPEN, buying used homes directly with algorithmic pricing (~10 days), renovating, and reselling them (45-60 days) for middle-class buyers in LATAM’s fragmented markets. It also offers brokerage and financing services. 

Operating in 15+ cities in Colombia (e.g., Bogotá) and Mexico (e.g., Mexico City), it reached unicorn status in 2022 ($200M Series C, >$1B valuation) with additional debt funding ($30M in 2024, $6M in 2025).

As of 2025, Habi employs ~1,000, serves 30,000+ families, and plans fintech and regional expansion.
