The vacation and short-term rental platform will use the funding to continue its growth throughout Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Naya Homes, LATAM’s newest PropTech company specializing in vacation and short-term rental management, has raised a $5-million seed round that will fuel its growth throughout Mexico. With its core focus on creating value for real estate investors and homeowners, the company leverages its robust technology stack to help owners maximize the profitability of their properties, minimize their operational stress and provide them with greater visibility into real-time financial performance.
The round was led by Flybridge Capital Partners with participation from Primary Venture Partners, Clocktower Technology Ventures, K50 Ventures, Carao Ventures, Trip Ventures, Colibrí Equity Ventures, Derive Ventures, in addition to several former executives from Uber’s Latin America team. This funding follows a $600-thousand pre-seed led by Primary Venture Partners in March 2022.
“We believe Naya can deliver incredible value to numerous stakeholders across the residential real estate value chain at scale,” says Jeff Bussgang, Partner at Flybridge Capital Partners. “Naya’s founding team is incredibly well-positioned, having on-the-ground experience managing operationally intensive businesses in LATAM, ranging from Uber to Sonder.”

Relative to LatAm incumbents who execute master leases on larger buildings, Naya Homes is an asset-light operator leveraging its funding to maximize profitability for all types of properties— from individual apartments to vacation villas — through innovative technology solutions.
“At Naya Homes, we’re focused on maximizing returns for real estate investors and homeowners. By removing operating complexity and providing enhanced visibility into financial performance, we will drive tremendous value to owners in destinations across Latin America. Long term, we will leverage our data to unleash the potential of this asset class in the region with other products and services that will enrich the owner experience,” states Humberto Pacheco, Naya Homes Co-founder and CEO.
Naya Homes began operations in Puerto Vallarta in August and will launch in Mexico City with a 15-unit building in Polanco in September.
