€500k · Other round · Proptech · Barcelona, Spain
Barcelona-based Hausum has closed €500,000 in equity financing to expand its home-inspection business, grow the team and improve its inspection technology. La Vanguardia reports that DIROCA, the investment vehicle backed by Dídac Lee, Roque Velasco and Carlos Trenchs, and finance-media brand Spicy4Tuna joined the round alongside close contacts and existing investors.
Founded in 2023 by Aleix del Campo and Omar Lamarca, Hausum gives prospective homebuyers an independent technical assessment before they complete a purchase. A registered architect inspects the property, records defects and photographs through Hausum's own app, and returns a report that includes estimated repair costs. The company says its software guides inspectors through the property and uses data from thousands of inspections to support those cost estimates.
The company currently completes about 4,000 inspections a year, mainly in Barcelona and Madrid, using a network of freelance architects, according to La Vanguardia. It has eight employees and expects 2026 revenue to finish slightly above €1m, as much as five times the previous year's figure; founder Aleix del Campo also told the publication that Hausum expects to reach profitability this year. These are company forecasts rather than audited outcomes.
Turning a local inspection service into a national network
Hausum is selling information at a point when a buyer has limited time and a large financial exposure. The inspection converts hidden defects into a documented repair estimate that can change a purchase decision or support a price negotiation. That mechanism keeps the service focused on the buyer rather than the estate agent, reducing the conflict that can arise when the party arranging a sale also controls the technical assessment.
The funding is intended to add staff, improve the inspection app and support nationwide growth. Hausum's official contact page says its network already covers more than 50 Spanish provinces. The operational challenge is therefore less about opening offices than about making inspection quality consistent across independent architects: the app, guided methodology and report turnaround are the pieces that can turn a distributed professional network into a repeatable service.
La Vanguardia also reports that Hausum plans to expand into document review before purchase and post-sale claims support. That extends the relationship from physical inspection into buyer-side due diligence, but it also raises the execution bar: legal-document workflows and claims require different expertise from identifying building defects. After the financing, the founders are expected to hold about 70% of the company, with DIROCA and Spicy4Tuna each holding about 10% and the remaining 10% held by close contacts and earlier investors.
