Most people, especially young people, want to buy a house but can not afford it. In UK, houses cost 8-10 times the annual salary, while loans are capped at 4.5 times.
Proportunity offers home equity loans and second mortgages to homebuyers in the UK. It uses technology to identify and select properties with the best chance of price increases in the coming years and owners with the best repayment prospects. This type of loan allows buyers to be 100% owners of the property from day one. Buyers pay only the interest and the appreciation fee and can decide when to repay the loan.
🗓️ The private opportunity will begin on Tuesday (May 24), at 10:00 AM (GMT+3), while the public launch is scheduled for May 31. Register now.

As a platform that only serves technology ventures, SeedBlink can connect the start-up with more than just money. SeedBlink investors are primarily technocrats who understand the objectives of the fundraising company and are also able to post-funding contribute with business opportunities. The minimum investment threshold, and technology focus, differentiates SeedBlink from other fundraising platforms. A perfect fit for a technology start-up seeking intelligent funding.

SeedBlink boosted our brand exposure and facilitated the financial support we were seeking. Having a campaign on the platform allowed us not only to meet a team of professionals - that guided and helped us prepare the necessary materials - but also opened doors for increasing our brand awareness and have discussions with VCs & angel investors we have never reached before. This campaign gave us the encouragement we needed to push the product further, while the record-breaking fundraising (only 2 hours from the launch of the campaign!) was a great confirmation that our product is needed in this market and that we should continue innovating.

SeedBlink has created a vital ecosystem for startups at the beginning of their journey by equipping entrepreneurs with expertise, encouraging honest and sometimes uncomfortable but necessary discussions about risks and vulnerabilities through a suite of tools, and facilitating connections with investors who share the founders' vision and can contribute to their success. I have greatly appreciated the constant support of Eric and the entire team at all stages of the campaign. Thank you so much!
