June Homes

eCommerce & Marketplaces · New York City, United States · Founded 2017

June Homes operates within the property technology sector, aiming to modernize the apartment rental process for both tenants and smaller-scale landlords. The company was established in 2017 by founder and CEO Daniel Mishin, who experienced firsthand the difficulties of renting an apartment in New York City after moving from London. The firm's business model centers on partnering with small, independent landlords, often referred to as 'mom-and-pop' owners, who typically possess fewer than 100 units. June Homes takes on the responsibility of finding and vetting tenants, managing the properties, and guaranteeing rent payments for these owners. This approach is designed to provide landlords with a stable income stream and reduce the operational burdens of property management. For tenants, June Homes offers a flexible and streamlined rental experience. The platform provides options for furnished or unfurnished apartments with shorter-term leases, which can be extended on a month-to-month basis. The entire application and leasing process is handled digitally, from virtual tours to online document signing and payment. This system is designed to eliminate the need for large security deposits and broker fees, which are common barriers in traditional rental markets. The company's revenue is primarily generated from the difference between the rent collected from tenants and the amount guaranteed to the property owners. By using an algorithm to identify and renovate undervalued properties, June Homes seeks to improve the quality of its housing stock and then lease the units at market rates. The company has focused its operations in major U.S. cities, including New York City, Washington, D.C., Boston, and Chicago.
