African Land manages short-lets, rentals and commercial property across Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria — listings and guests, tenants and rent, maintenance and compliance — and pays you your net income with a clear monthly statement. Over 100 units under management since 2019.
Short-let, long-let or commercial — we run it end to end and account to you every month. Pick the service that fits; the fee is simple and comes out of what the property earns.
We run your short-let end to end — listing and pricing across Airbnb and booking platforms, guest communication and check-in, cleaning and turnovers, restocking and maintenance, and monthly owner statements.
Hands-off long-let management for houses and apartments — we find and vet the tenant, collect rent, handle repairs and inspections, and account to you every month.
Facility and estate management for offices, retail and commercial buildings — service charges, maintenance contractors, security and cleaning, and tenant liaison, kept running and accounted for.
Just need a tenant? We market the property, vet applicants and handle the paperwork up to move-in — you take over the management yourself.
No retainers and no hidden charges — we are paid from what your property earns, so our incentive is your income.
