About DirectLandlords

DirectLandlords was founded in 2026 with one simple goal — to make renting a home in Port Harcourt fair, transparent, and stress-free for everyone involved.

For too long, finding a rental property in Port Harcourt meant dealing with agents who charge viewing fees just to see a property, and agency fees on top of that before you could even move in. Landlords weren't getting the direct connection they needed either. We built DirectLandlords to fix exactly that.

Our platform allows landlords to list their properties directly — upload photos, set their price, and start receiving genuine enquiries from tenants without any middleman involved. Tenants can browse listings, message landlords, and book viewings completely free of charge. No viewing fees. No agent fees. Just a direct connection between the person who owns the property and the person who wants to rent it.

To further build trust on the platform, our small but dedicated team works around the clock to verify listings at the landlord's request. When a landlord requests verification, we physically visit the property to confirm that the person who posted the listing is the actual property owner. Verified listings display a badge on the platform so tenants can browse with confidence.

Beyond verification, we also offer professional photography and 360° virtual tour services for landlords who want to showcase their properties in the best possible light. These premium services help listings stand out and give tenants a genuine feel for a property before they even visit — all at the landlord's request.

We are currently serving Port Harcourt and plan to expand to other cities across Nigeria as we grow. Wherever we go, our commitment remains the same — to make renting fair, transparent, and direct for every Nigerian.

No agents fee. No commission. No Viewing fee. Just DirectLandlords.
