Clooper is a property management platform. The company argues that 86% of private landlords in the UK manage their properties themselves, with many finding it time-consuming and stressful. Clooper seeks to solve this problem with a property management platform that connects landlords, tenants, trade services, and homeowners to facilitate easy transactions between them. It aims to be a significant contender in the £11 billion property management platform. The company points out that Paul Rothwell of Empire, a large residential landlord in England, has pledged £200,000 of investment to the company. Clooper aims to make move-ins quicker, repairs faster, and payments easier in the wake of Covid-19 which is fuelling the adoption of online services in the UK. The company will use the investment to hire key recruits, operationalise mobile apps, boost marketing, and enhance sales and operations.
