Casavo, the scale-up that operates the all-in-one property platform enabling agents to transform the way people buy and sell homes in Europe, has acquired Casando Agency, an Italian estate agency with a network of over 60 agents across major cities. <\/p>\n\n
Building on the path set out in 2023, this initiative represents a key milestone in Casavo\u2019s business plan, which is centred on a digital model of a direct network of agents.<\/p>\n\n
Founded by entrepreneurs with decades of experience in the sector, Casando Agency, through its network of over 60 staff members, operates in the top 10 Italian cities, six of which are not yet covered by the Casavo network, thereby helping to expand the group\u2019s geographical reach.<\/p>\n\n
The integration of the two companies will create value for estate agents through Casavo\u2019s technology and brand, including by leveraging its distinctive \u2018Instant Offer\u2019 service, which enables homes to be sold within 30 days.<\/p>\n\n
“We are delighted to announce this transaction, which forms part of a broader evolution aimed at building an integrated, technologically advanced ecosystem capable of helping estate agents boost productivity and business opportunities, reducing complexity and costs, and offering customers an even smoother buying and selling experience,” said Victor Ranieri, general manager and co-founder of Casavo, in a statement – “We have found a strong cultural alignment, based on a results-oriented approach and the belief that building a high-performing national network requires combining corporate stability and technological innovation with an understanding of the local area and the social fabric.”<\/p>\n\n
\u201cThis transaction enables us to accelerate our already well-established European vision, building on Casavo\u2019s presence in France and the support of its solid investor base,\u201d adds Charlie Cinolo, co-founder of Casando Agency – Casavo\u2019s positioning also stands out thanks to its \u2018Immediate Offer\u2019, a service unique on the Italian market, and proprietary technology that enables rapid innovation, alongside managerial and financial expertise that complements and enhances our operational experience in managing a direct network of agents.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
In 2026, Casavo aims to significantly accelerate its growth trajectory, with the goal of doubling its network of agents \u2013 from around 200 to over 400 across Italy and France \u2013 expanding into 20 new urban areas and maintaining its path of economic and financial sustainability.<\/p>\n\n
Casavo aims to achieve revenues of over \u20ac50 million by 2030, with a growth strategy based both on the organic expansion of its own agent network and on the integration of other estate agency networks that complement the Casavo ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n
A key role will be played by the expansion of the Immediate Offer service, which will be revamped in 2025 as an evolution of the instant buying model. Unlike in the past, this service is provided in a way that generates returns for property investors, representing a unique proposition on the market for all stakeholders. <\/p>\n\n
In support of its 2026\u20132030 business plan, Casavo has completed a capital increase of over \u20ac12 million, thereby significantly strengthening its financial position. The transaction was backed by the majority of shareholders, including Project A, Picus Capital, EVRG 18 and Salica Investments, and saw the entry of selected new investors. <\/p>\n\n
\u201cWe are convinced that the property brokerage market in Europe is heading towards a phase of consolidation, driven by a shift in the operating model from franchising to a direct network and by the impact of artificial intelligence on agents\u2019 productivity,\u201d says Giorgio Tinacci, founder and CEO of Casavo (pictured here with members of the two companies\u2019 teams). \u201cIn this landscape, Casavo is ideally placed to bring together networks of estate agents: we can rely on proprietary technology scalable to thousands of transactions, on industrial and financial expertise gained in the sector across multiple European markets over the last eight years, and on a synergistic commercial offering.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
