<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ratio, a Spanish real estate promotion and investment solution, has successfully closed a €650,000 funding round. This milestone reinforces Ratio's strategic objective to expand its product capabilities and strengthen its Spanish real estate market footprint.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Public and Private Investors Back Ratio's Disruptive Model</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The funding round is structured in two parts:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>€450,000 in equity investment</strong>, led by experienced business angels from the fintech firm <strong>SeQura</strong>, the real estate agency <strong>Guinot Prunera</strong>, and the private equity firm <strong>Orion Capital Managers</strong>.</li>



<li><strong>€200,000 in a participatory loan</strong> from <strong>Empresa Nacional de Innovación (ENISA)</strong>, a public entity under Spain’s Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Tourism.</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This blend of private and public capital empowers Ratio financially and validates its innovative business model and strategic potential in a sector ripe for digital transformation.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“The trust placed in us by business angels with extensive backgrounds in fintech, e-commerce, and real estate shows how disruptive our technology is. This capital injection will allow us to accelerate development and optimize every phase of real estate promotion,” said <strong>Nicolás Araujo Müller</strong>, co-founder and CEO of Ratio.</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New Era in Real Estate Investment</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Founded to streamline and democratize real estate development, Ratio's digital platform offers developers an end-to-end solution to manage their operations and financing processes more efficiently. The technology eliminates unnecessary commissions and bureaucratic delays, allowing projects to reach profitability faster.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In its first year of operation, <strong>Ratio facilitated over €10 million in real estate investments</strong>, with a projected doubling of this figure by 2025. This would place its expected turnover at over <strong>€500,000</strong> by the end of the next fiscal year.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strong Investor Confidence in a Scalable Future</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One of Ratio's early backers, <strong>Juan Ignacio Cifre</strong> of Guinot Prunera, expressed strong support: “The real estate sector urgently needs modernization. Ratio is bringing precisely that with its powerful technology, rigorous project vetting, and an innovative solution that benefits both developers and investors.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This investor confidence reflects Ratio’s ability to deliver real value to a traditionally complex and slow-moving industry.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ENISA Loan: A Stamp of Institutional Approval</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ratio’s €200,000 participatory loan from <strong>ENISA</strong> is not just financial support—it's also a mark of institutional trust. ENISA’s stringent requirements demand demonstrable innovation, a solid financial structure, and a scalable business model.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“The ENISA process reaffirmed our high professional standards and proved that Ratio is well-prepared for long-term growth,” said Araujo.</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expansion Plans for 2025: Madrid and the Balearic Islands</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Following a successful 2024—during which <strong>six real estate projects were completed in Barcelona</strong>, involving more than <strong>170 investors from various countries</strong>—Ratio is preparing to expand to other key markets in 2025. These include <strong>Madrid</strong> and the <strong>Balearic Islands</strong>, regions where demand for streamlined, tech-driven real estate solutions is rapidly growing.</p>
