We are experiencing an amazing moment of explosive growth and success which creates for a real cultural buzz. We have the backing of the biggest names in UK property. But don't take our word for it: https://www.standard.co.uk/business/estate-agent-bosses-back-property-app-lavanda-a3589426.html

    Scaling an operation as fast as we are is a challenge. We firmly believe that industry leading technology is the right way to rise to that challenge.

    BACKGROUND

    We believe that Airbnb-style “homesharing” is fundamentally changing the way people discover, rent and buy residential property. Lavanda's customers are the world's travelers. Lavanda's clients are property owners, whether an owner-occupier, a second home owner or a buy-to-let investor, for whom Lavanda provides a trusted, flexible and hassle-free platform to provide an amazing experience and optimise rental yield. By wrapping rental property in our luxury hospitality experience and offering it as a short or mid-term rental, we boost its desirability and maximise occupancy throughout the year.

    WHY ARE WE EXCITING?

    At Lavanda our mission is to create value for property owners through luxury hospitality, technology and data. To execute on this, we’ve successfully brought together a team of proven world-class entrepreneurs - from across the hospitality, property and tech industries - to hone a brand and service that challenges a multi £billion industry. With a proven model that is backed by some of the UK’s most prestigious angel investors, we’re now well funded and growing fast.

    We invite you to join a team of like-minded entrepreneurs and play your part in helping us build a business and brand that will shape the future of the residential property market
