  • A Structured Licensing Ecosystem for Nigeria’s Real Estate Industry

    Posted by Chris on March 15, 2025 at 8:33 pm

    Problem: Nigeria’s real estate sector lacks structure, with unregulated agents and brokers causing fraud, confusion, and poor service for renters and buyers.

    Solution: A platform and framework that introduces a tiered licensing system for agents and brokers, enforcing education and regulation to professionalize the industry and protect consumers.

    How It Works:

    • Agents complete a 70-hour pre-licensing course, pass an exam, and work under a broker.
    • Agents renew licenses biennially with 10 hours of continuing education.
    • Brokers qualify after 2 years as agents, complete a 50-hour course, and pass a broker exam to run agencies.
    • Digital hub tracks licenses, education, and connects certified pros with clients.
    • Public database lists licensed agents/brokers with ratings for transparency.

    Who It’s For: Aspiring real estate pros seeking legitimacy, renters and buyers tired of unregulated agents.

    Why It’s Cool: It could cut shady deals by 50% and elevate service quality with trained, licensed professionals.

    Execution Hint: Launch in Lagos or Abuja—ideal for Nigeria’s market, needing heavy collaboration with regulators due to licensing.
