About QuintoAndar:

QuintoAndar was born to do something very rewarding: open doors. We opened doors for technology to be part of living. And, through it, we simplify and reduce the bureaucracy of the experience of those looking for a new home. Thus, we became the most valuable proptech in Latin America, leading the real estate market in around six countries and more than 75 cities around the globe.

The first steps in the international market have been taken since we acquired Grupo Navent, which is ranked number 1 in Mexico (Inmuebles24), Argentina (Zonaprop), Peru (Adondevivir & Urbania) and Ecuador (Plusvalia) - among others. And most recently, we launched Benvi, our international brand in Mexico, which comes with our residential rental product and service.

We offer an end-to-end ecosystem to make life easier for those looking to rent or buy a home, sell a property and unlock a transaction. Think of zero paper or bureaucracy: everything happens on a single platform, with transparency and speed alongside incredible human support.

We are currently valued at over $5.1 billion (August 2021) and continue to grow 4x year over year, breaking records.

To make all this happen, we have more than 4,000 talented people, working with cutting-edge technology and best design practices to ensure a seamless experience throughout the sales and rental process, combined with smart financial products. Here you will work with the best professionals in the market, in an environment that breathes innovation, collaboration and high performance.
