SAN FRANCISCO—Of the $50 million in funding that Kasa Living Inc. has raised, $30 million in new Series B funding was led by Ribbit Capital and $20 million in Series A funding was led by FirstMark Capital less than a year ago. Participating investors also include RET Ventures, Zigg Capital, Allegion Ventures and BoxGroup.

Kasa's technology transforms vacant and underutilized real estate into flexible traveler accommodations. As of late, the company has entered into management agreements with multifamily and hotel property owners in 35 markets across 15 states, enabling its partners to unlock new streams of income and realize full property potential.

"We see a generational opportunity to innovate in a beleaguered travel sector. Kasa aspires to build a global accommodations brand beloved by guests, indispensable to property partners and desired by neighbors," said Roman Pedan, founder and CEO of Kasa. "This raise allows us to grow our technology team significantly to power a flexible and distributed hospitality offering that delivers on our mission."
