For owners & appointed representatives
List Your Property. Owners & Appointed Representatives Welcome.
Whether you are the owner or the person they have appointed to manage the property, we send verified tenants, corporates, UN and embassy staff, relocating families and returning diaspora directly to you. No exclusivity, no management contract, and no interference in how you run your property.
Tenants who are ready
Everyone who reaches you has told us their budget, dates and requirements first. You are not fielding tyre-kickers.
You keep control
You set the rent, you show the unit, you sign the lease, you take the money. We are out of the transaction entirely.
Verified badge
Passing the 7-point check gives your listing a verification badge, which measurably shortens the conversation with cautious tenants.
How we compare for landlords

What we need from you
A copy of your national ID or company registration, proof of ownership (title deed, allotment letter, or a head lease allowing sublet), or, if you are an appointed representative, a signed management agreement or letter of authority from the owner, the unit's details, type, size, furnishing level, amenities, minimum stay, and your asking rent with a clear statement of what the service charge covers. We then inspect the unit, check the price against the published band for your neighbourhood, and publish.
Verification usually takes two to four working days. We re-verify every 90 days, and we will ask you to confirm availability before we introduce anyone.

List my apartmentOwner & representative FAQs
Are you a property manager or representative?
Yes, you can list properties you are legally mandated to manage. We will require a signed management agreement or letter of authority during verification.
What if I manage the property but don't own it?
You are welcome to list it. During our 7-point verification, simply provide your signed property management agreement, letter of authority, or power of attorney, along with a copy of the actual owner's ID or company registration. We verify the chain of authority so tenants can trust you.
What does it cost to list?
Listing and verification are free. Our commercial arrangement is agreed with you only when we successfully introduce a tenant who takes the unit, and it is never added to the tenant's rent.
Do I have to give you exclusivity?
No. Keep marketing the unit however you like. We only ask that you tell us promptly when it is let so we stop sending people.
Will you manage the property or hold deposits?
No. We are a matching service, not an estate agent or a management company. We never hold rent or deposits, and we never sign on your behalf.
What if my asking price is above the market band?
We will tell you, with the numbers. You are free to keep your price, we will simply be honest with tenants about where it sits relative to the neighbourhood range.
How do you handle my personal documents?
Ownership and ID documents are used solely for verification, stored securely, and never published or shared with tenants, in line with Kenya's Data Protection Act 2019.
