The House Agent Experience Every Nigerian Knows

Hidden fees, ghosted appointments and listings that don’t exist — the shared frustrations of dealing with house agents, and a more transparent way forward.

The House Agent Experience Every Nigerian Knows

Almost everyone who has searched for a home here has a story. The agent who pocketed an inspection fee and disappeared. The "available" flat that was never available. The fee that appeared out of nowhere on signing day.

Why trust runs low

The frustration isn't really about individuals — it's about a system with little transparency and few guarantees. When information is hidden and fees are stacked, mistrust is the natural result.

The opposite of a bad agent experience isn't a better agent — it's a system you don't have to trust on faith.

Transparency by design

RaffleProp publishes documents, independent NIESV valuations and regulatory approvals on every campaign, holds funds in escrow, and streams every draw live. Trust comes from what you can verify — not from who you happen to deal with.

A different way to reach property ownership

RaffleProp runs FCCPC-regulated promotional competitions for real property in Nigeria. Entry starts from ₦2,500, every property is independently valued by an NIESV firm, all funds sit in escrow at a named Nigerian bank, and the winner is selected in a live-streamed, independently witnessed draw.

And your entry value is always protected: if a campaign does not reach its minimum, your full participation value converts to Home Credit you can use on any future campaign. Browse live campaigns, see how it works, or join the waitlist to be first when the next property goes live.

RaffleProp is a promotional competition open to Nigerian residents aged 18 and over. Participation requires passing a skill assessment. Play responsibly.
