- Real Estate Tube currently has 16,000 video listings and registrations for the app are growing.
- The company has already closed a seed funding round of $1 million and is now preparing to raise a further $2.5 million of Series A funding.
“The reason we’ve begun with this market is to target young millennials – the early adopters of technology. If we can get them to use it, they can socially proof our platform and get our name out there,” he says. “Then we’ll start adding other categories like ‘houses for sale’,’ businesses for sale’, et cetera.”
