Homebuying platform OneDome is claiming a major step in its growth after raising $25 million in a new funding round, taking its total raised to $40 million.

The ‘Pre-Series C’ was funded largely by existing investors alongside Channel 4 Ventures, whose investment was announced late last year.

Next phase

And it will be used to support the next phase of growth, the firm says, including investment in technology, product development, and expansion of its integrated housing and financial services platform.

In October, OneDome announced a £7.5 million media-for-equity partnership with Channel 4 Ventures, marking a major step in the firm’s national expansion strategy.

Under the agreement, Channel 4 Ventures – the broadcaster’s venture investment arm – is investing £5 million, with a further £2.5 million to follow if performance milestones are met.

Brokers network

OneDome currently arranges approximately $1.4 billion of mortgage lending per month, and works with a network of over 500 mortgage brokers, making it one of the largest mortgage and property platforms in the UK.

It was ranked 4th fastest-growing fintech and 17th fastest-growing technology business in the UK by the Deloitte Fast 50 2025, based on 1,700% revenue growth between 2021 and 2024.

And this year, the company was named the 6th fastest-growing technology business by the Sunday Times Tech 100, having grown revenues by more than 4,000% between 2022 and 2025.

Stressful and disjointed

Babek Ismayil, Founder and CEO of OneDome (main picture), says: “Buying a home is still one of the most stressful and disjointed financial transactions people go through.

“We started OneDome to fix that by bringing everything under one roof and turning homebuying into a simple, transparent retail experience,” he says.

This funding allows us to scale what is already a profitable and fast-growing platform.”

“This funding allows us to scale what is already a profitable and fast-growing platform, while continuing to challenge how homes are bought and financed in the UK.”

In 2024, OneDome acquired Albany Park, a specialist mortgage advisory firm based in the UK, from Hatbox Group, as well as mortgage broking giant the Coreco Group.

Last year, an advert made by OneDome for its HomeBuyer Service, went viral, amassing huge numbers of views on YouTube.
