The problem

A massive rental market still run on paper.

Across Tanzania, landlords manage portfolios of 5, 50, or 500 units with paper ledgers, M-Pesa screenshots, and WhatsApp threads. Rent collection drifts. Lease renewals get missed. Maintenance requests live in a notebook on someone's desk.

For tenants it's no better, chasing receipts, querying balances by phone, and wondering whether last month's rent was even recorded. There has never been a purpose-built system for the way East African property actually trades.
