Habi was founded in 2019 to make buying and selling homes easier in Latin America. And honestly, that is a big job. Real estate can feel like a maze where every door asks for another document. Habi uses technology to buy properties directly, manage paperwork, guarantee payment timelines, and prepare homes for resale through renovation and improvement work. Today, the company operates in Mexico City, the State of Mexico, Guadalajara, and Monterrey. More than 18,000 families have used its platform to complete real estate transactions, supported by more than 1,200 real estate professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n In 2022, Habi grew even faster after acquiring Propiedades.com and Tu Cant\u00f3n. That helped the company strengthen its place as one of the main proptech businesses in the region. But growth did not only happen on the commercial side. New teams, systems, and ways of working had to come together without creating a giant knot. What started as a startup quickly became a company with almost 800 employees. At that size, payroll stops being a small admin task and becomes part of the engine room.<\/span><\/p>\n As Habi kept growing, payroll became more complex. Managing payroll for close to 800 employees needed more speed, more consistency, and better visibility. The company was also bringing in teams from acquisitions, which meant different groups had to be integrated under clearer and more standard processes.<\/span><\/p>\n At that scale, even small payroll mistakes can cause real problems. They can affect employee trust, create extra admin work, and take time away from finance and operations teams. Without one clear system, the workload could grow as fast as the company. And that is not the kind of growth anyone wants. Habi needed payroll to work like a solid base, not like a loose wheel on a fast car.<\/span><\/p>\n With Runa, Habi used payroll outsourcing and centralized technology to make payroll easier to manage while keeping control and visibility. Payroll and employee information now live in one place, helping Human Resources and finance teams manage a large workforce with more order. Employees can also access their payroll information and receipts directly in the platform, which reduces repeated questions and gives people more transparency. Automated payroll payments through STP cut manual work and lowered the risk of payment errors. For a company with hundreds of employees, those changes matter in every payroll cycle. Runa also helped during the integration of acquired teams.<\/span><\/p>\n By keeping payroll unified across different business units, Habi could standardize processes, align teams, and reduce friction. As Mayra Salazar explains, \u201cWith Runa\u2019s payroll outsourcing, we ensure accuracy and punctuality in every payment, while our team can easily access their information; that gives us peace of mind and efficiency.\u201d That mix of automation, access, and consistency has helped Habi keep growing without losing control of one of its most important processes.<\/span><\/p>\n Part of the decision was about continuity. Before the acquisition, Propiedades.com was already using Runa, which helped Habi avoid a messy migration and keep operations stable during integration. But that was not the only reason. Habi also needed a solution that could support a company growing quickly. Runa\u2019s payroll outsourcing, automation, and specialized support fit what the business needed at that stage.<\/span><\/p>\n Runa gave Habi the flexibility and know how to manage payroll during growth, acquisitions, and internal change. Today, Runa is more than a payroll platform for the company. It works as an operational partner that helps Habi keep efficiency, consistency, and visibility while scaling across Mexico. For a business moving this fast, payroll control is not just admin. It is part of building a strong base that can hold the next stage of growth without wobbling like a table with one short leg.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About Habi Habi was founded in 2019 to make buying and selling homes easier in Latin America.
