Ukraine to Austin: A Gonzo Journey into the Future of Real Estate

Riding the AI Wave with Sofia Vyshnevska and PropertyMate.ai

In this episode of the Founders Pack Podcast, Michael speaks with Sofia Vyshnevska, co-founder of Propertymate.ai, a real estate marketplace for finding, comparing, and buying new construction homes.

Sofia, who is Ukrainian and currently based in Austin, Texas, discusses the problem that her company solves, which is the lack of a central platform for new construction homes.

She explains how her company's AI technology predicts which communities will see new waves of interest, and how they operate as a brokerage with in-house experts to help buyers through the entire process of purchasing a new home.

Sofia also shares her experience being accepted into Techstars in Austin and provides advice for other founders to keep trying. She emphasizes the importance of partnerships and communities in success and highlights her company's focus on being super efficient as they prepare for expansion into new states in 2023.

Readers can connect with Sofia on LinkedIn, Facebook or through her email, and she nominates Lyuba Golovina, founder of Our Finance, as a future guest.
