(source: job posting) ## Products & Services - **Digital Mortgage Platform (B2C)**: Consumers could simulate, prequalify, and apply for mortgage credit online, comparing offers from 12+ banks. No cost to the user; revenue came from bank commissions. - **White‑label / API (B2B)**: Offered a co‑branded mortgage experience for real estate partners, enabling them to embed financing into their own sales processes. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Total funding – Pre‑Seed round (April 2023) led by 1517 Fund, with participation from 9 investors; accepted into Y Combinator W23 batch. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: 1517 Fund, Y Combinator; worked with 12 financial institutions in Mexico. - **Growth Signals**: The company shut down operations in July 2025 after failing to achieve sustainable growth. The CEO cited difficulty in forecasting and maintaining month‑over‑month growth in a high‑emotion transaction business. Headcount declined to 1 employee at closure. ## Competitive Advantages - **Bank‑agnostic marketplace**: Aggregated offers from multiple lenders, saving consumers time and effort. - **YC pedigree**: Backing from the world’s top accelerator and a strong network of investors. - **Full‑service support**: Handled the entire mortgage process from application to notary coordination, reducing friction for buyers. ## Strategic Focus - Prior to shutdown, the company attempted three go‑to‑market channels (B2C direct, real estate agents, property marketplace integration) but could not find repeatable, predictable growth. - After closure, the founding team (led by Eric Yáñez) shifted to a new stealth project targeting the U.S. market, explicitly seeking “outstanding engineers” for a founding team role. ## Why Work Here - **⚠️ Not currently operational**: Holacasa ceased operations in July 2025. No open positions exist at the company. - **Related opportunity**: The founder is recruiting for a new stealth U.S.‑based startup and is looking for founding engineers. That may be of interest to job seekers. - **Culture (historical)**: The company valued agility, customer empathy, and a hands‑on, action‑oriented approach. The team was small (1–10 people), offering broad ownership and direct impact. Office‑first in Mexico City, with flexible remote support. ## Sources 1. [holacasa.mx](https://www.holacasa.mx/) 2.
