Build Your
Proptech MVP.
In Austin.
Austin Founders
Why Austin is the
Perfect Launchpad
Austin has emerged as a major tech hub, attracting companies fleeing California costs. The city combines tech credibility with lower costs and business-friendly policies.
Thriving Ecosystem
Austin speed, UK precision
- We match Austin's move-fast mentality
- No state income tax savings can fund your MVP
- Build while you focus on your Austin network
- UK engineering standards, competitive pricing
Austin is 6 hours behind London. Overlap in your morning, our afternoon. Progress happens while you network at Capital Factory.
Why Proptech MVPs Fail
And How To Avoid It
We've seen dozens of founders in proptech make these mistakes.
Building for both sides of the market
Trying to serve buyers, sellers, agents, and brokers with one product.
Our SolutionPick a side. Agent tools and consumer tools are different products. Serve one well, add the other later.
MLS integration nightmares
Trying to integrate with every MLS before launch.
Our SolutionStart with manual data entry or a single MLS. Validate the workflow, then invest in integrations when you have paying customers.
Over-building valuation models
Creating complex AVMs when you need basic price guidance.
Our SolutionZillow spent billions on their algorithm. You're not beating it with an MVP. Use existing APIs or keep it simple.
What Your MVP Actually Needs
Don't waste budget on features you don't need yet. Focus on validation.
Must Haves
- Property listing/management
- User roles (agent, buyer, seller, admin)
- Communication tools (messaging, scheduling)
- Document handling
- Basic search/filtering
Wait For Later
- AI valuation models
- Full MLS integration suite
- Virtual tour creation
- 3D floor plan generation
Built to Scale.
Not Just a Demo.
We use the same stack as billion-dollar startups. Next.js + Supabase with PostGIS for location queries. Mapbox for mapping. Cloudinary for property images.
