Resida, a property technology startup focused on modernising the rental experience, has officially launched its all-in-one housing platform designed to simplify how Nigerians find homes, pay rent and manage property-related services.
The platform enters the market at a time when renters across major Nigerian cities continue to face challenges such as fake property listings, fragmented rental processes, poor record keeping and difficulty accessing reliable maintenance services.
Resida brings these services together within a single ecosystem, allowing users to search verified and inspected properties, apply for shortlet or long-term rentals, make secure rent payments and access trusted artisans for repairs and maintenance.
According to the company, the platform was built to address long-standing inefficiencies in Nigeria’s rental market by providing a more transparent and structured experience for tenants, landlords and property managers.
“Renting in Lagos has never had the infrastructure it deserves. For too long, the rental experience has been stressful, fragmented and built on trust gaps,” said Mr Ilemobayo Kings Ayejuni, Founder of Resida.
“We built Resida because tenants, agents and landlords deserve a process that is transparent, secure and simple, from the first property search to rent payment and ongoing maintenance,” he said.
Beyond helping renters find homes, the platform offers landlords and property managers tools to streamline operations, including tenant verification, automated rent collection, financial reporting and maintenance request tracking.
The company says it is currently active in more than 15 locations across Lagos, with a growing inventory of verified properties available to renters across the city.
The launch reflects growing innovation within Nigeria’s property technology sector, where startups are increasingly using digital solutions to address challenges in housing access and rental management.
Available on Android, iOS and the web, the Resida app enables users to discover verified properties, apply for rentals, manage rent payments, keep track of tenancy records and connect with trusted artisans for maintenance needs, all from a single platform designed to make renting simpler and more reliable.
