Launch Engineer, Wander

Wander provides a tech-first approach to letting short stays that might be familiar to anyone using AirBnB or another competitor, but the comparisons stop there. Wander directly owns and controls the properties on its portfolio, allowing it to ensure a high standard of quality and excellent customer service for its guests. Having booked over 2,000 nights of accomodation and with a 95% satisfaction rating over 2022, it seems to have found a strong market niche to grow into.

After raising an impressive amount of capital in 2022, Wander has secured a significant credit facility from Credit Suisse. It will use this to increase its property portfolio across the United States with an aim to put a property within 3 hours drive of 80% of the population. It is also rolling out a facility to allow guests to purchase part ownership of the homes they stay in, allowing them to diversify their own financial portfolios. Wander is in a strong position to capture a large segment of the luxury market.
