Could we examine the significant role of technology in Nigeria’s real estate market and how it is driving efficiency and transparency?
1. Online Property Listings
Gone are the days of relying solely on print media and word-of-mouth for property searches. Online property listings have revolutionised how buyers and sellers connect. Platforms such as manroestates.com, PropertyPro.ng, and Nigeria Property Centre allow users to browse listings, compare prices, and even view properties remotely.
Benefits

Time-saving for both buyers and real estate agents.
