Building a Real Estate Tech Ecosystem for Africa
The goal is to build a full-stack **real estate tech ecosystem for Africa**, solving actual market inefficiencies and laying the foundation for long-term innovation:
- A **community platform** like BiggerPockets for Africa with blogs, forums, and expert resources.
- A **listing CRM** for brokers with WhatsApp bot integration for managing leads and automating communication.
- A **BIM platform** that enables developers and engineers to collaborate on documentation and workflows.
- **Property management software** with WhatsApp-enabled resident communication.
The vision: To build Africa’s largest **real estate data lake** for consultancy, machine learning, and insights — leading the next wave of **PROPTECH in Africa**.
This is a smart pivot. You’re addressing gaps in efficiency by offering consultancy, implementation, and then stepping away — giving landlords control and reducing cost resistance.
**Why it works:**
1. Low barrier to entry for clients
2. High scalability
3. Builds a thought leader brand
**Next Steps:**
- Package your consulting offers
- Document every success
- Let your case studies speak
Let’s shape a professional ecosystem for Uganda and beyond.
