See the platform before you read the numbers.
Owning property in Africa is common. Managing it from abroad is a gamble.
Millions of Africans abroad own land and homes back home, then depend on relatives and informal caretakers to supervise builds, tenants and repairs, with no visibility, no records and frequent losses.
No visibility
Owners abroad rely on caretakers with no reports, photos or proof of what was done.
Fragmented services
Repairs, security, power, water and cleaning are separate, unvetted, cash-based relationships.
Leakage and fraud
Inflated quotes, abandoned builds and title fraud cost owners heavily.
No recourse
When work fails there is no guarantee, no paper trail and no one accountable.
One accountable team on the ground. One app in your pocket.
Proptiva runs an owner's whole property operation, with vetted vendors, inspected work, verified photos and every invoice in one place. The expensive, risky work of building the platform is done.
iOS & Android
Commission work from London. Watch it happen in Lagos.
Owners approve and pay in the app, then see every report, photo and video in their Update bank, with vendor photos shown only after Proptiva has verified the work.
A vetted vendor network that stands behind its work.
Vetting, bidding, inspection and retention. Vendors hold back part of every early job until it passes inspection, so quality is built into the economics.

Current status — Pre-revenue
A large, informal market waiting for trust.
Nigeria alone receives an estimated US$20B+ a year from its diaspora, much of it tied to building, maintaining and protecting property back home. Property services across Africa remain overwhelmingly informal and offline.
Market sizes are internal, illustrative estimates for context, to be validated with a bottom-up model in diligence. The US$20B+ figure is a widely reported estimate of annual inflows to Nigeria, not company revenue.
Go-to-market
- Diaspora communities and associations in the UK, US and Canada
- Referral partners such as lawyers, estate agents, banks and developers, with 2 early conversations under way
- Case studies proving delivery with real before-and-after photos
- Lagos first, then Abuja and Accra, then pan-African roll-out
Why we win
- Verification built in, so vendor photos appear only after inspection
- A written Workmanship Guarantee competitors don't offer
- The full stack is live, so build risk is behind us
- Recurring plans that compound with every property onboarded
A bottom-up path to US$10M net revenue by year five.
Illustrative projections, bottom-up from the 20% coordination fee on an average project of about US$20,000, plus care plans, rentals, shortlets and vendor margin.
| Year | Projects | Project GMV | Coordination fees | Recurring & other | Net revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 · Lagos & Accra | 60 | US$1.08M | US$216K | US$24K | US$240K |
| Year 2 · multi-market | 200 | US$4.0M | US$800K | US$150K | US$950K |
| Year 3 · pan-Africa | 500 | US$11.0M | US$2.2M | US$550K | US$2.75M |
Five-year outlook, net revenue in US$
Use of funds
This round is step one on the road to Africa's property operating system.
Managing tens of thousands of properties across Africa and its diaspora corridors, with recurring care, rental and project revenue, a platform of this kind can reach US$80–120M in annual revenue, the level that supports a valuation of around US$1B. It is a multi-round, 7–10 year journey, and additional capital compresses the timeline.
Prove Lagos, targeting US$240K net revenue.
Net revenue from 1,800 projects a year.
Annual revenue supporting a valuation near US$1B.
Years 1 to 3 are from the investment memorandum, and years 4 and 5 extend the same method. Illustrative, to be validated in diligence, not a forecast or guarantee. Historical management accounts are available in the data room on request.
Drag the slider. See your stake.
Every investor in this round comes in at the same fixed valuation, so your stake is simply your investment divided by the post-money valuation.
Where your money goes
Illustrative, not an offer of securities. Final share numbers are set by the Share Subscription Agreement and depend on the company's issued share capital. Early-stage investments are risky and can lose value.
