Waltz, a startup that helps people from other countries invest in U.S. homes, has raised $25 million in debt funding. The company plans to use the money to grow its business in Latin America.
Waltz got the $25 million in funding from companies connected to Setpoint Capital. This money will help Waltz move closer to its big goal—offering up to $1 billion in mortgage loans to people from other countries who want to buy homes in the U.S.
Since starting in July 2024, Waltz has already received over $300 million in loan applications from investors in four continents. This shows that people around the world are still very interested in buying U.S. real estate, even with the ups and downs in the market.
Israeli entrepreneur Yuval Golan started Waltz. The company helps people from other countries buy homes in the U.S. by making the whole process easier and more transparent.
Waltz’s online platform lets international buyers set up U.S. companies, open bank accounts, exchange money, get loans, and complete their home purchases—all in one simple place.
The startup’s next step is to fully launch its services across Latin America, especially in Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and Argentina. These countries are some of the biggest sources of people buying homes in the U.S., and interest in this region has grown a lot recently.
“The demand from Latin America was immediate, and that’s not surprising,” said Golan. “U.S. real estate is a blue-chip investment for foreign nationals. When paired with digital tools, it’s clear why a platform like Waltz resonates with today’s investors.”
The new $25 million will help Waltz handle the growing number of loan requests and add new features for currency exchange and international payments, starting with customers in Mexico and Brazil.
