Hotpads gets funds to stay warm

By Vivek Puri

I had discovered Hotpads only last year even though the startup has been around since late 2005. Simply put Hotpads is rental property search engine with a heavy focus on map mashup. In other words, a sophisticated Craigslist.org doing just the rental property side of things. Only part that was not clear till now was -  How is the 7 person team is managing it’s finances? Well that part is a mystery no more. According to PEHub, Hotpads has raised $2.3 million in Series A funding.

If you are looking to send in mass listings to Hotpads, try vFlyer, which can push big-feed data into the rental marketplace.
