Revela – a leading property management solution – recently announced that it has raised a $9 million Series A funding round to expand its product suite and meet the evolving needs of the real estate and property management industry. FirstMark Capital led the funding round, with additional participation from Detroit Venture Partners, MetaProp, and Assurant Ventures.
This funding round marks Revela’s inaugural fundraising initiative since its founding. And as a fully bootstrapped company, Revela has doubled its revenue each year for the past three years and maintained profitability despite market challenges.
The funding round validates Revela’s differentiated and proprietary solution that fills a clear gap in the market for owners and property managers. And Revela offers the only comprehensive software solution in the space with a comprehensive API system, making the platform uniquely positioned to handle the complex and essential needs of the industry.
The funding round will be used to strengthen existing operations and establish a unique banking-as-a-service platform and other financial products, making Revela the first and only property management software to offer lending capabilities embedded directly in the platform.
