Houzr: What you need to know
Led by Joost van de Zon (CEO), Houzr is a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform that allows stakeholders in residential real estate projects to determine the economic and social effects of a project, enabling all parties to make informed decisions about the best course of action.
With a broadened proposition, Houzr aims to support all stakeholders in the Dutch project development sector in their decision-making process, including area and project developers, construction companies, housing associations, planners, municipal advisors, and real estate agents.
In a short period, the Dutch scale-ip has gathered a regular customer base of over 50 leading customers, who jointly account for approximately 15 per cent of Dutch housing production.
They rely on Houzr to find the optimal balance between quality of life, market demand, sustainability, risk, and return.
According to the Dutch SaaS firm, it provides accurate and up-to-date information for decisions related to purchasing land, participating in a tender procedure, or implementing a plan.
Ron van Bijsterveld, managing partner of CCS, adds, “ By presenting the economic and social effects of new construction projects and facilitating the dialogue between all stakeholders, Houzr makes a unique contribution to the new construction ambition. We look forward to supporting the team in its next phase of growth.”
