Its long-term target is to get into mortgage finance.<br \/>\nFund managers were told by Credit Suisse to think about a $3.4 billion addressable market across the five geographies of PropertyGuru, while considering that only a fraction of that is expected to hit the online company\u2019s top line in the coming year.<br \/>\nFor 2020, PropertyGuru is only expecting $105 million in revenue and $11.7 million in EBITDA, up from this year\u2019s forecast of $85.6 million and $6.4 million, respectively. The company is not due to be profitable within the forecast period.<br \/>\nAnd while all of PropertyGuru\u2019s businesses are offshore, the pre-IPO reports have plenty of Australian references \u2013 explaining why it seeks to list on the ASX.<br \/>\nOnline property advertising penetration, for instance, was only four percent to 36 percent across PropertyGuru\u2019s five main markets, but stood at 79 percent in Australia. Online ad spend was just 0.8 percent of an agent\u2019s commission, while 15.1 percent in Australia.<br \/>\nCredit Suisse \u2013 which along with UBS are the lead managers to PropertyGuru\u2019s proposed IPO \u2013 also told fund managers that the company managed to continue growing despite property cooling measures in its biggest market, Singapore. While analysts believe that the subdued conditions in Singapore will continue until next year, a rebound in residential conditions is expected in 2021.<br \/>\nNeed help with your home buying\/selling\/renting process?
