Who we help

Why trust us — the 7-point verification

Rental scams are the single biggest reason Nairobi tenants distrust online listings. This is the process every listing passes before it goes live, and repeats every 90 days.

M-Pesa secure paymentsYou pay the landlord directly — never us.

1. National ID / passport check

We confirm the landlord is a real, identifiable person or registered company before a listing goes live.

2. Proof of ownership

Title deed, allotment letter or a lease that grants the right to sublet. No document, no listing.

3. Photo verification

Photos must match the actual unit. We request date-stamped images and compare them against inspection.

4. Price validation

Rent is cross-checked against Knight Frank, HassConsult and Cytonn market ranges for that neighbourhood and type.

5. Physical inspection

A member of our team visits the property, checks water, power backup, security and finish.

6. Tenant references

Where a previous tenant exists, we ask them directly about the landlord and the unit.

7. Re-verification every 90 days

Listings that fail re-verification are removed within 24 hours. Freshness is part of the check.

We are NOT an estate agent

We are a matching service. We connect you directly with verified landlords. You deal with them, you view with them, and you pay them. We never hold your money, we never sign your lease, and we never manage or let property on anyone's behalf. We earn from landlords, not from tenants. No tenant fees. Ever.

This positioning is deliberate: under Kenya's Estate Agents Act (Cap 533), a pure introduction and matching service is not an estate agency practice. If anyone contacts you claiming to hold keys or take a deposit on our behalf, that is not us — report it to us immediately.

Founding tenants

"I sent one WhatsApp message with my budget and Gigiri as my area. Three options came back the same afternoon, and I dealt with the landlord directly. No agent, no 'viewing fee'."
Aisha N.Regional programme manager, relocated from Kampala
"We were terrified of paying a deposit to someone we'd never met. Being able to see who owned the place, and to talk to them on WhatsApp before flying, was the whole difference."
Tom & Grace W.Diaspora, returned from Manchester for six months
"Serviced one-bedroom, walking distance to the office, sorted in two days. The price they quoted matched the market ranges they publish, which is not something I expected."
Brian K.Consultant, three-month posting in Upper Hill

Frequently asked questions

How much does a furnished apartment in Nairobi cost per month?

Roughly KES 85,000–180,000 for a furnished one-bedroom in Westlands or Kilimani, KES 180,000–320,000 for a two-bedroom in those areas, and KES 250,000–450,000 for a three-bedroom in Karen. Satellite areas such as Ruaka, Syokimau and Rongai run substantially lower. Ranges are drawn from Knight Frank Kenya, HassConsult and Cytonn market reporting.

Do you charge tenants any fees?

No. We never charge tenants a matching fee, a viewing fee or a commission. We are paid by landlords who list with us. You pay rent and deposit directly to the landlord, never to us.

Are you an estate agent?

No. We are a matching and introduction service. We do not manage, lease or let property, we do not hold deposits and we do not sign leases. Under Kenya's Estate Agents Act (Cap 533) a pure introduction service is not estate agency practice.

How do I avoid a rental scam in Nairobi?

Never pay a deposit before physically viewing the unit or doing a live video walkthrough. Confirm the landlord's ID and their proof of ownership. Never send money to a third party 'holding' the property. Every listing we publish goes through our 7-point verification before going live, and is re-verified every 90 days.

Can you help if I am still abroad?

Yes. We arrange live video walkthroughs with the landlord so you can see the actual unit and ask questions in real time, then you deal with the landlord directly on terms. This is how most of our diaspora and UN relocation enquiries run.

Own a furnished apartment in Nairobi?

List free. We verify. Tenants reach you on WhatsApp. You keep 100% of the rent — we never take a cut of your lease.
