Urbanitae closed 2024 with a record €213 million funded, up 60% from 2023, totaling €480 million since 2019. It completed 66 projects, mainly in Spain, with 47% equity-based, 44% debt, and 8% rental income. Crowdfunding has boosted real estate investment, yielding a 13% IRR and €70 million returned to 28,000 investors.
The Spanish real estate crowdfunding platform Urbanitae has closed 2024 with a record funded volume of 213 million euros, which is 60% more than in 2023 and reaching 480 million accumulated since it began its activity in 2019.
The company, which also operates in Portugal, France and Italy, executed a total of 66 projects last year together with developers such as Libra Gestión de Proyectos, Fenext and Vogue Homes, it said in a statement.
47% of the projects launched on Urbanitae were equity projects, where investors become owners of the asset, and 44% were structured under the debt or crowdlending formula. The remaining 8% were income projects, where investors receive periodic dividends for the rental of a property, generally a commercial premises.
In total, Urbanitae commissioned nearly 2,500 homes in 2024, 87% of them in Spain
70% of the transactions exceeded 2 million euros and 9% had a value of 5 million euros, the maximum allowed by law.
“The real estate sector has found a breath of fresh air in crowdfunding in a context marked by credit containment. And, in turn, small and medium-sized savers have incorporated this investment formula into their portfolios, encouraged by the fact that we have successfully completed all of our projects to date,” said Urbanitae’s co-founder and CEO, Diego Bestard.
Since Urbanitae started its activity in June 2019, after receiving authorization from the CNMV, Urbanitae has accumulated a financed volume of 480 million euros through 191 operations, of which 28% have already been concluded, returning 70 million euros in capital and interest to more than 28,000 investors, with an average IRR profitability of over 13%.
