Streamline your property sales with Veya Uncover opportunities Speed up sales progression Reduce fall throughs Be more compliant Veya was founded by Jason Howarth in 2019 to help estate agents streamline their property transactions. Through Jason’s own frustrations as an estate agent, he felt there was an urgent need for clear, fast, and transparent information on property title deeds from the get-go. This inspired the idea for Veya, an innovative tool deriving property data from the Land Registry and various other sources to offer a comprehensive check of any property in seconds. Testing it out on his own agency, he found that he was able to speed up sales progressions, reduce fall-throughs and win more instructions. What was originally designed by Jason as a tool to help within his own agency, he quickly realised that this could be of huge benefit to every estate agent in England and Wales. He managed to secure initial investment from angel investors and was accepted onto the reputable accelerator programme with Geovation. Since then, we developed the estate agent software that went to market at the end of 2020 and the response from the early adopters of Veya was phenomenal. Agent feedback stated that the tool helped to speed up property sales by as much as four times and that it was intrinsic in helping them win more instructions. Veya secured further investment mid-2021 to enable us to move the platform to the next stage. To support Veya’s journey, John McAuley joined as CEO following his initial investment in the product, alongside CFO Ben Blackman, previous Purplebricks UK Finance Director. Further to the team expansion, CTO Trevor Richards joined in the summer of 2021 to drive product innovation. This has helped us to integrate with several key technology partners, further expanding our benefits for clients. This includes automated identity verification, AML compliance and source of funds checks.
