What Latio does

Latio is a full-service real estate agency headquartered in Riga, Latvia, founded in 1991. Operating as SIA "LATIO," the company provides brokerage, valuation, market analysis, auction management, and surveying coordination services across residential, commercial, forest, and agricultural property categories. It serves both private individuals and business clients, with 150+ employees distributed across 12 offices in major Latvian cities including Riga (headquarters plus four branches), Jūrmala, Daugavpils, Ogre, Sigulda, Jelgava, Tukums, Talsi, Liepaja, Jēkabpils, and Valmiera.

The company's product portfolio spans residential and commercial brokerage, certified property valuation, real estate market research, auction services (notably the exclusive PNB Banka distressed-asset platform), forest and agricultural land services via the Latio Meži sub-brand, international property referrals to Portugal, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, and the UAE, rental property supervision, and digital tools including a rent-vs-buy calculator and new-developments portal. Latio partners with Metrum for land surveying and uses Latvian State Land Service address data. No proprietary technology, AI/ML systems, or algorithmic platforms are described — the offering is fundamentally a people-intensive, transaction-driven service business.

Latio's revenue model is overwhelmingly transaction-fee-based: commissions on residential and commercial sales/rentals, professional-services fees on valuation reports, and commissions on auctions and forest/agricultural land transactions. First consultations with transaction managers and certified valuers are provided free of charge, with fees levied only upon successful transaction completion. The company is privately held, has no disclosed external funding or parent company, and operates as a horizontally segmented full-service agency with dedicated vertical sub-brands.
