What Anjuke does

Anjuke (安居客) is a Shanghai-headquartered online real estate marketplace founded in 2007 that serves as one of China's longest-running property listing platforms. The company operates a web-based portal with city-specific subdomains covering hundreds of Chinese municipalities (from tier-1 cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen down to county-level markets), complemented by native mobile applications for iOS and Android (including a dedicated iPad HD experience) and a mobile working platform for licensed agents (移动经纪人). Anjuke aggregates listings across new homes, secondary (used) homes, rentals, commercial properties (shops and offices), and decoration services, and extends its offering with a suite of financial decision tools (commercial loan, provident fund, combined loan, early repayment, and home purchase qualification calculators), a city-organized Property Q&A community, a residential Community Directory, an AI-tagged Property Research Institute (ai.anjuke.com), and a Home Selling Service. The platform is part of the broader 58.com classifieds ecosystem, which provides cross-vertical reach.

Anjuke monetizes through three primary streams: listing fees paid by real estate agents and developers to post properties (new developments, used homes, rentals), advertising and promotional placements (featured listings, banners) for agents and developers seeking visibility, and subscription/recurring agent services for profiles, rankings, and visibility tools. Its distribution is digital-first — SEO-optimized city portals, self-serve mobile apps, and a direct sales motion for enterprise agent accounts. Customers are hybrid: individual home buyers, sellers, and renters on the demand side, and licensed agents/brokers and property developers on the supply side. The platform is privately held with no public ticker; reported funding history totals approximately $72 million across rounds from 2007-2020, with investors including Matrix Partners China, Baidu, and General Atlantic.

Direct peers

• Beike (贝壳找房 / KE Holdings): China's dominant real estate transaction platform integrating Lianjia's captive agent network with cross-agent listings. Directly competes with Anjuke for agent mindshare, listing share, and developer marketing budgets in the same Chinese consumer marketplace category.
• Lianjia (链家): China's largest traditional residential brokerage with its own branded agent stores across China. Operates directly in property listings and buyer/seller representation — the same core functions that Anjuke digitally enables for third-party agents.
• Fang.com / SouFun (搜房): Long-established Chinese real estate portal offering new home, used home, rental, and commercial listings, plus agent and developer advertising. Operates in the same listing/advertising model as Anjuke and historically competes for the same agent and developer spend.
• Anjike (安居客) / alternative portals (Fangtianxia 房天下): Fangtianxia (also branded Fang.com) is a direct online real estate portal competitor in China offering property listings, agent directories, and developer marketing — overlap is direct with Anjuke's listing and advertising business.
• Ganji.com (赶集网): Chinese classifieds platform historically merged with 58.com that also hosted a real estate vertical with listings for homes, rentals, and agents. Comparable as a listing platform model that drove prior consolidation creating the 58.com/Anjuke real-estate ecosystem.
• Zillow Group: Largest US online residential real estate marketplace connecting buyers, sellers, renters, and agents via listings, agent advertising, and integrated mortgage tools. Functionally analogous to Anjuke at the digital real estate marketplace layer.
• Realtor.com (Move Inc.): US residential real estate portal owned by News Corp that aggregates MLS listings, connects consumers to agents, and sells agent/developer advertising. Directly analogous platform model to Anjuke in a different geography.
• Rightmove: UK's largest online residential property portal offering listings, agent subscriptions, and value-added tools. Closest international comparable to Anjuke's listing and agent-subscription monetization model.
• PropertyGuru Group: Leading Southeast Asia property marketplace operating in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia with listings, agent subscriptions, and mortgage integrations. Comparable business model (marketplace + agent ads + financing tools) at smaller regional scale.

Broad incumbents

• 58.com (58同城): Anjuke's parent company and broader Chinese classifieds platform covering real estate, jobs, automotive, and local services. Comparable because the 58.com platform itself hosts a real estate vertical and is the primary traffic/cross-promo channel for Anjuke.
