Our take
Renting is a frustrating experience for many; most companies are trying to replace letting agents, however, there are a number of startups in the space trying to improve the experience.
Goodlord is not trying to disrupt traditional letting agents, but its product aims to make the letting journey smoother for property owners, letting agents, and tenants. Its cloud-based platform means the entire process of letting a home – from referencing to contract generation – can be managed through a single interface.
It has grown rapidly, with revenues recently more than doubling year-on-year. Its software and services have supported more than 1 million landlords and tenants throughout the UK, and its proprietary platform processes over £1 billion in payments annually.
Goodlord previously acquired referencing platform Vouch and bought the bill-splitting app Acasa, whilst in 2023, the company acquired Halo as another attempt to diversify its offerings. Following series B funding, It is expanding its reach throughout the UK, through organic growth and more strategic acquisitions.
