My guest in this episode is serial tech entrepreneur Mike Bird, CEO of Urban, Australia's largest online marketplace dedicated to brand new property.
Since July 2018, Urban has grown from 360k annual users to 3M, with home buyers collectively viewing a new property development every 10 seconds in 2020.
On the industry side, more than 2700 off the plan developments are being marketed and managed via Urban’s back end platform and it is now being used by developers such as Lendlease, Stockland, Mirvac & Frasers.
In 2020 Mike led the successful acquisition and merger with Property Observer - founded by well known property journalist Jonathan Chancellor -, one of Australia’s leading real estate news websites delivering an archive of 35,000 property articles while tripling the size of our content and editorial insights team.
