Company mission

To democratise and simplify access to second homes.

Our take

Second home ownership in France is climbing, driven by business trends in remote work. However, for many, owning a second home is out of reach. Enter Prello, a PropTech startup offering prospective buyers to co-purchase a house with friends, family or complete strangers, dividing the use of the property with an app-based calendar.

There are other startups operating in the second home market niche, with Altacasa also launching in 2021 and US-based Pacaso swiftly becoming a unicorn based off the same business model in the United States. However, Prello's advantage is in the ease of use of its service, which includes locating a property, supporting the administration around co-purchasing, managing its shared use and maintaining it.

Prello recently completed a seed funding round led by Axeleo Capital. It is using this funding to drive recruitment, expand its catalogue of properties for sale, and to enhance its property management offerings.
