The property portal Lamudi, a Rocket Internet venture, today launched its iOS app in 12 additional countries across Asia, Africa and Latin America, as the startup seeks to capture the growing smartphone market in these regions. The launch of Lamudi’s iOS app follows the successful roll out of the startup’s Android app last month. The Lamudi app is now available on iOS devices in 16 countries worldwide, with the Android app being available to users in 28 countries.
The Lamudi app puts thousands of global property listings in your pocket. It provides the platform for house hunters to rent, buy or sell properties on the go. A key feature of the Lamudi app is its customised search function, which allows users to easily filter results by country. It also provides match alerts, with users receiving a notification as soon as a property that suits their needs hits the market. House-hunters can also bookmark their favourite properties to access at any time and on any device.
All listings on the app feature high-quality photo galleries, detailed property information, maps, and multiple contact details for property owners or agents. Users can also share their favourite properties with family and friends via Facebook, Twitter or email.
Lamudi was founded in 2013 by the Berlin based company builder Rocket Internet. Earlier this year, the startup closed a $7 million funding round. Check out the video below to see how Lamudi works:
