About Housmata

I'm Qudus, co-founder of Housmata. Renting in Nigeria is a trust problem, not a supply problem. Fake listings, landlords who vanish after payment, managers nobody can hold accountable. Renters lose months and real savings to it, and landlords lose income to it. Housmata is the trust and verification layer for Nigerian real estate. Every property is verified before it goes live, payments run through the platform instead of cash in hand, and a trained property manager sits behind every property we list. We run Housmata Academy alongside it, an AI-tutored self-paced platform that trains those managers, and graduates then run their practice on Housmata. In parallel we've built an AI financial-intelligence tool that turns a tenant's rental history into decision-ready data so rent-financing providers can assess them in minutes instead of hours. We started in Ibadan, where no one else was looking. ₦52M of rental GMV processed, 50+ properties under active management, 89 Academy students across five states, all of it on about ₦11M of founder money and reinvested fees. No outside funding. What I want out of this community is the operators, property managers and financers who can pressure-test the model before we expand into Lagos and Abuja.
