  • The third platform, HomeNxt (B2C) — currently in the beta stage — is a digital mortgage platform that uses technology for mortgages underwriting and delivery by leveraging India’s technology stack. The company is building the entire software stack for the digital mortgage journey.

Madhusudan Sharma, Co-founder, Homeville, said, “We pioneered India’s first down payment assistance programme to accelerate housing for first-time home buyers. With our digital mortgage product and co-lending platform for affordable home finance, we are deepening our commitment to home buyers and India’s housing finance ecosystem.”

“Homeville’s various platforms address the challenges faced by millennial home buyers and the real estate market. The company aims to help accelerate the $100 billion housing industry, poised to reach approximately $500 billion by 2025.

This company is focused on helping people buy their first home, facilitate the flow of credit to affordable housing, and share lending infrastructure among the housing finance companies,” added Jaxay Shah, MD of Savvy Group, Investor – JITO Angel Network, and Ex-National President, CREDAI.
