Landis, A Stanford Real Estate Startup, Raises $15M To Put Americans On The Path To Homeownership

Homeownership is considered a core part of achieving the American Dream. However, that achievement is slipping out of reach of many Americans these days. U.S. homeownership has been at record lows throughout this decade. More Americans are renting as a response while managing with stagnant wage growth. The path to homeownership in today’s America has never looked this dismal. Cyril Berdugo, 29, and Tom Petit, 31, have built Landis to create a new road for Americans to own a home. Landis is a social impact-driven real estate technology company aimed at providing a path for prospective homeowners to purchase their own and obtain a slice of the American Dream. The New York City-based startup has recently raised $15M to fund its property acquisition strategy.
