Morada Uno

Morada Uno is a Mexican proptech company founded in 2020 that provides rental insurance, tenant screening, and digital tools for real estate brokers and professionals in Mexico's residential rental market. The company addresses fragmentation in Mexico's rental market, where approximately 97% of landlords are individual property owners rather than institutional investors. Morada Uno works primarily with real estate brokers by screening and underwriting potential tenants through comprehensive background checks using over 30 national and international data sources including credit bureaus, legal backgrounds, IMSS records, and international lists. The company's core offering is rental payment protection, guaranteeing landlords receive rent payments for up to 12 months even if tenants default, while also providing unlimited legal advisory services until property recovery. Additional services include digital contract generation, tenant investigation reports delivered within 24 hours, alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, and home insurance products. The company developed the MoradaUno App, available on iOS and Android platforms, which reduces rental operation time from two weeks to 24 hours. As of November 2024, Morada Uno has worked with over 4,500 real estate brokers, facilitated more than 20,000 rental transactions, and processes approximately 1,000 leases monthly. The company raised a $5.6 million Series A round in 2024 and is backed by Y Combinator, Flourish Ventures, and several local and international venture capital firms. Currently operating in four Mexican cities including Mexico City, Morada Uno plans to expand to six additional cities and is exploring fintech services such as advanced rent payments and AI-powered broker tools. The company is headquartered in Roma Norte, Cuauhtémoc, Mexico City.
