What Morada Uno does

We screen, collect and insure residential leases; allowing brokers and landlords to close more deals with less work, and solving the biggest pain point for tenants- needing a guarantor with a property to co-sign the lease.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform that screens tenants, collects lease payments, and provides insurance on residential rentals. Our service eliminates the need for tenants to find a guarantor with property, which is the biggest barrier in Latin America. Brokers and landlords use our tool to close more deals faster with less risk and paperwork.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Mexico City, and after YC the company will remain based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Mexico City is where the rental market pain points we solve exist. Our team and early clients are all based here, so we need to stay close to the market and the regulatory environment we operate in.
