May silbi pa rin pala talaga ang pakikinig during classes?
Our CEO and Co-Founder talks about how foreclosure took center stage in our startup journey.
OpenSesame.PH started in a very random university day. Our CEO’s professor briefly mentioned foreclosures, with no intention at all of endorsing them for sale. Zero opened his laptop, briefly aware of the foreclosure process, and accessed one of the leading commercial banks’ inventory online.
It was as if the problem was staring back at him. That was a time when banks merely presented their assets in a tabular manner. He knew it would be difficult for prospective investors to decide smartly if only the published information in those tables were available. Without foreclosed properties being presented properly, people would avert from ever considering it, scaring away potential investors from dabbling in a new kind of property segment.
OpenSesame.PH was born out of a genuine, actionable problem, and it was launched during an immense interest in 2025. It took the co-founders more than a year to assemble its team and build the marketplace platform. Now, OpenSesame.PH is continuously building partnerships with banks to deliver diversified foreclosed properties up for grabs by the whole Philippine market. It is committed to delivering an end-to-end service—from property discovery, acquisition, to even improvements.
