Rently raises $3m to scale Asia presence

The funding round was led by impact investor Orange Bloom.

Proptech startup Rently has announced the close of its $3.8m (US$3m) pre-series A funding round, intended to scale its presence in Asia.

The round,  led by impact investor Orange Bloom, also included participation from Hustle Fund, Woh Hup, Feedback Ventures, and existing investor 5i Ventures, which reaffirmed its support. The funding values the company at US$43m.

Key initiatives include expanding Rently Pay in existing markets, entering Hong Kong and two other Asian cities, and doubling the size of its product and data teams to support platform localization and operational scalability.

According to Rently, the long-term rental market in Asia exceeds $324b (US$250b) annually and remains dominated by traditional leasing processes. The company’s digital approach aims to streamline operations for both tenants and landlords.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
