Proptech start-up The Urban Collective aims to capitalise on the appetite for investment in the sector by crowdfunding £250,000 ($355,000) to develop an artificial intelligence Mayank Mathur system that will complement its tenant concierge service of the same name. The Urban Collective, launched last year, claims its UrbanCo app, can reduce the process of finding a rental home to around 10 hours. More than $3bn was invested in proptech in 2017, a 36% year-on-year increase, according to CEO Sherpa.
