About the company
LoftSmart is a New York City-based startup and the market-leading search and booking platform for student rentals nationally. Since launching in 2015 as a local review and listing platform for rentals near the University of Virginia, LoftSmart has made its name more broadly as the first transactional marketplace for rental real estate — empowering eager renters not just to search, but also to apply, lease, and pay digitally — even as the Company has maintained its focus on the $155 billion student housing market and gained a toehold among 18- to 22-year-old renters.

Today, LoftSmart’s industry-leading platform offers nearly 300,000 units nationally for instant booking — spanning local homeowners to national, publicly-traded REITs — and enables millions of student renters to discover and lease those apartments and homes with transparency, ease, and simplicity. 

LoftSmart recently raised $13 million in Series A investment led by Tiger Global Management — large and early investors in Airbnb, Facebook, Linkedin, Glassdoor, and Spotify, among others. This round brings total funding to date for the startup to nearly $18 million, including additional backing from new investors FJ Labs, Red Sea Ventures, and Avenir Growth Capital, as well as existing investors Tribeca Venture Partners, Corigin Ventures, and Jaffray Woodriff.
