We see the benefits: the stable passive income from rent, the appreciation over time, the leverage effect of a mortgage and the diversification of your investment portfolio.
But we struggled: not enough funds for the down payment, a long and complex process, no time to manage it all and definitely no access to premium opportunities. We weren’t just going to accept that the Real Estate is not for us, so we started BRXS!
There is a huge shortage of affordable housing options and it is nearly impossible these days for anyone wanting to buy their first property. This is why we make an active commitment to not compete with the regular housing market and we only focus on the existing investment rental segment! As a landlord, it is our responsibility that we provide a fair rent for a well maintained home. This is why it takes time to source and select properties we offer, but this is worth it to us.
We are just getting started, it is our long term vision for the future that excites us and motivates us everyday. Real estate is and should be for everyone, imagine a world where you can in one click open your portfolio and see all the places where you have your investments and at the same time, together with us, you can actively contribute to the future of living and providing sustainable housing opportunities.
Amrita and Filip have started BRXS in 2021 and since then built a strong founding team of like-minded people with diverse backgrounds and experiences, coming from companies like Square, Klarna, Bunq, Peaks, Revolut, and IKEA; a team that wants to transform the future of real estate and strongly believes in building a platform where everyone feels represented and welcome.
Amrita has turned many complex regulatory hurdles into practical solutions to help companies thrive and grow to the next level. In the last few years she created compliant models, with the business growth needs in mind, in highly regulated sectors: ridesharing, micro mobility and autonomous driving space. At Brxs she applies her skills and experience and she works on bringing the company's strategy, long term vision and growth needs to life while still finding the right solutions to meet external requirements. What she loves most about building BRXS, housing should be for everyone from investment opportunities to having a safe place to live and with each step we grow we can not only make it accessible but we can also actively help shape cities to meet the needs of the world around us.
CloseFilip has been building businesses and teams from the ground up and scaling them fast across Europe for the last 10+ years. After starting his career in management consulting, he joined a small start-up “at-the-time” Uber to lead their business in Belgium. In 2016, he became part of the founding team of UberEATS, leading and growing the Western Europe region with over 200 people across 7 markets. In 2019, he joined Vay, an autonomous driving start-up in Berlin, to build their operations and go-to-market strategy. Today, Filip is excited about opening up real estate investing to everyone because he is convinced it is both a great way to build wealth and it determines how we will live in the future.
CloseBRXS is applying for a full AFM license in 2023 as it extends its activities.
