Nigeria's first fully transparent real estate marketplace.Inspect first. Pay through escrow. Sign digitally. Move in.

For Renters

Find your next home in 6 simple steps

1

Search & Discover

Browse thousands of verified listings across all 36 Nigerian states. Filter by price, location, type, and amenities. Save favourites to compare side-by-side.

2

Virtual Tour First

View detailed photo galleries and video walkthroughs before you visit in person. No inspection fee just to see what's inside — that ends here.

3

Book Inspection

Request a physical or virtual inspection. Schedule directly in-app, no calls or back-and-forth WhatsApp. Confirmed within 24 hours.

4

Make Payment (Escrow Protected)

Landlord accepts your offer. You have 24 hours to pay. Funds are held securely by Paystack — never released until you confirm move-in.

5

Sign Digitally

Your tenancy agreement is pre-filled and ready to e-sign. Both parties sign in-app. A signed PDF is sent to both — legally binding, instantly.

6

Move In

Keys handed over. You're home. Your tenant portal opens automatically with rent reminders, maintenance requests, and document storage.

Built-in safety

Trust isn't a feature — it's the foundation.

Every transaction passes through four layers of protection. No shortcuts. No exceptions.

Escrow Protection

Paystack holds funds. We never touch your money. Released only on dual confirmation.

Identity Verified

NIN and BVN verification for every party. No anonymous transactions. Ever.

Digital Agreements

In-app e-signatures, legally binding under Nigerian Evidence Act 2011. Archived forever.

Fraud Detection

Scam reports auto-suspend listings while we investigate. Bad actors are banned for life.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Real concerns from real Nigerians. Real answers from our team.

Your funds remain in escrow with Paystack. They are never released to the landlord until you personally confirm move-in. We step in to mediate, and if the issue cannot be resolved, you receive a full refund — no questions asked.

Absolutely. Inspection comes first, payment comes after. Book a free in-app inspection (or a paid virtual tour for properties outside your city). You only commit to paying after you've seen the property and agreed terms with the landlord.

All payments go through Paystack escrow. LandlordConnect never holds your money — Paystack does. Funds release only on double confirmation (you AND the landlord). If anything goes wrong, you have a documented audit trail and a refund pathway.

You need a valid government-issued ID (NIN, driver's license, or international passport) and a working phone number for SMS verification. That's it. We handle every other document — tenancy agreement, receipts, KYC — directly inside the app.

Yes. You can cancel up to 24 hours before the scheduled inspection for a full refund (if any fee was charged). After that, virtual tour fees become non-refundable, but in-person inspections remain free.

Yes. Every offer comes with a 24-hour acceptance window. You can accept, counter, or decline. If you decline or let the window expire, the listing returns to active and the tenant is automatically notified — no awkward conversations.
