Frog Capital leads Series B for McMakler, Germany’s leading hybrid Estate Agent

• McMakler raises €16 million from existing investors

• Fastest growing hybrid Estate Agent in Germany

Frog Capital has led the €16 million funding round  for McMakler, the fastest growing Estate Agent in Germany. Since closing the Series A in the middle of last year, McMakler has firmly established itself as the largest hybrid Estate Agent in Germany. McMakler has transacted €50m worth of properties over the past twelve months, with a combination of industry-leading software and high quality personal advice from its network of property brokers.

The company will use the freshly raised capital to expand its national network of brokers, the capabilities of its software and the brand awareness of McMakler. The company already has a broker network spanning 50 cities across Germany with 100 brokers.

“The market has really taken to our model over the past couple of years, as our strong growth and full order book demonstrate”, said Hanno Heintzenberg, who founded McMakler together with Lukas Pieczonka two years ago. “As a hybrid Estate Agent we are combining the best of both worlds: the personalised service of a traditional broker and the latest technology as well as the most efficient processes. We are delighted to have the firm backing of Frog Capital as they understand this scale-up phase in the Proptech market.”

Frog’s Partner Jens Düing said: “McMakler is now the standout hybrid internet leader in this €10bn property market. They are the biggest player and have the most momentum, because their customer offering is resonating and their execution is excellent. Hanno, Lukas and their team are a very impressive unit, outperforming what we expected. We are delighted to lead this Series B round.”
