OneDome is a London-based proptech company founded in 2016 that builds a digital platform to streamline the homebuying and selling process in the UK real estate market.[1][2][3] It offers an integrated service including property search, mortgage advice, conveyancing, HomeBuyer Protection Insurance, rental pricing tools, and mobile apps—all for a fixed price—serving individual homebuyers/sellers, estate agents, and housebuilders to reduce transaction failures (which affect nearly 30% of deals, costing £2,700 on average).[1][2][3] The platform has raised $10.36M in funding (latest Series A-II round of $6.36M about 5 years ago), employs around 34 people, and generates approximately $12.4M in revenue, with steady growth indicated by a Mosaic Score up +52 points recently.[1][2]
OneDome was founded in 2016 by Babek Ismayil after his personal ordeal trying to buy his first home in London: after months of viewings and a 4-month process, he lost the property on exchange day to another buyer, costing him thousands and delaying his plans by four years.[3] Researching further, Ismayil discovered this was common—over 400,000 UK homebuyers face failed transactions annually—and decided to create a unified platform to fix the fragmented, outdated process unchanged for decades despite government modernization efforts.[1][3] Early traction came via family offices, angels like Lord Jacob Rothschild and Reuben Brothers Capital, and a £5M Series A led by figures including OneDome chairman Sir Nigel Knowles, fueling platform development.[2]
OneDome rides the proptech wave transforming real estate's archaic processes amid rising UK housing demand, digital adoption post-COVID, and government pushes for transaction modernization.[1][3] Timing aligns with market forces like high failure rates (30% of deals) and average £2,700 losses per fallout, where digital platforms like OneDome cut friction versus competitors (e.g., Blox in India or IFCA's management software).[1] It influences the ecosystem by empowering estate agents/housebuilders with streamlined tools, fostering efficiency in a £250B+ UK property market, and setting a model for consumer-first integration that could scale amid proptech consolidation.[1][2]
OneDome's integrated model positions it to capture share in a digitizing UK real estate market, with potential for new funding or partnerships to accelerate growth beyond its 2020 Series A lull.[1][2] Trends like AI-driven valuations, blockchain for conveyancing, and regulatory tailwinds will shape its path, possibly expanding to renting or Europe. Its influence could grow by halving transaction failures, tying back to Ismayil's vision of stress-free home moves as proptech matures.[3]
ONEDOME has raised $40.2M across 2 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $34.2M Series C in February 2026.
