VCs exit Propertybase to Boston Logic
A consortium of German VC firms have sold their stakes in real estate sales software platform Propertybase for an undisclosed sum.
Neuhaus Partners, High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), Bayern Kapital and Bayerische Beteiligungsgesellschaft all reported a successful exit.
Acquirer Boston Logic provides estate agents with marketing and design services, and software. Markus Kreßmann of HTGF explained in a statement that the acquisition would give rise to significant synergies due to this overlap.
Previous funding
HTGF led a funding round for Propertybase in May 2010. Bayern Kapital and Neuhaus Partners also participated in the round. Bayern Kapital is thought to have introduced HTGF to the round, which in turn suggested Neuhaus.

It has developed a front-and-back-office sales, marketing and service application for real estate brokers and developers, using the force.com cloud-computing platform by Salesforce.
