The story of an EstateGuru borrower – Alo Arumäe
In the years since the beginning of EstateGuru, we have faciliated loans in 5 different countries, with Finland and Spain recently added. In that time, over 200 borrowers have seeked financing from us and we have funded more than 300 loans with the help of our investors. One might ask, what makes the borrower prefer EstateGuru over other financing options? To find the answer to this question, we asked Alo Arumäe, the developer of the Jõe 2b (3 stages, €321 000, project repaid) and Pärna 33a projects (5 stages, €900 000), what made him choose EstateGuru and how have his projects gone so far.

EstateGuru entered the Spanish market
As the economies of the European Union’s countries are on a rising trend, one cannot underestimate the growth of the Spanish market. According to CBRE, the Spanish economy has an expected growth of 2.5% compared to the European average 1.6%. From EstateGuru’s perspective, we are glad to identify the growing number of Spanish investors along with the rising interest in the Spanish real estate. Investing in alternative real estate assets in Spain is picking up a gear, providing opportunities that are pushing investors to take up positions in different sectors.
To enable our investors to benefit from the growing trend, EstateGuru has placed its focus on the Spanish market. In the following article you will find an overview of the reasons why Spanish and Marbella’s real estate is a solid investment opportunity that every real estate investor should aim to have in their portfolio.
