When Rahmon Ogunkunle launched 99Crib, his goal was simple: to remove the stress and uncertainty that comes with house-hunting across Africa. The way homebuyers and renters search for properties in Nigeria today is often confusing, time-consuming, and unreliable. 99Crib was built to change that.
Since then, the platform has grown into more than just a place to find properties. It has become a full ecosystem that helps not only home seekers and investors, but also gives real estate agents the tools they need to work better.
“Property transactions should be accessible and stress-free for everyone involved. We wanted to create a platform where transparency and efficiency are at the heart of every deal,” Rahmon said in a recent interview.
Powered by technology, 99Crib brings buyers, sellers, renters, and agents together in one seamless digital space.
The platform is designed to simplify every step of the property search journey, offering features such as updated listings, property reels, virtual tours for remote inspections, in-app messaging with agents, and the ability to schedule physical tours with agents.
With 99Crib’s 3D Virtual Tour feature, users can now inspect properties remotely from anywhere, experiencing every space as if they’re physically there. This eliminates wasted visits and second-guessing.
While 99Crib enhances transparency and convenience, it does not support payments directly on the app. This ensures that users maintain full control over how and when they finalize transactions.
“Our goal is to make property transactions as easy as possible. With 99Crib, users can access a wide range of listings from the comfort of their homes while staying confident in the process,” Rahmon added.
Today, 99Crib is quickly becoming a top choice for both Nigerians and diaspora investors looking for a smarter way to navigate housing in Africa. But it’s not just built for convenience. It’s also helping realtors grow their business.
“Our platform isn’t just for buyers and sellers. We want to empower agents with the right tools to do their jobs better, whether it’s managing their listings or closing deals faster. It’s all about creating an ecosystem that works for everyone,” he explained.
The company has already partnered with Smile ID to verify realtors and with Realsee to introduce virtual inspections. In just its first three months, 99Crib attracted over 500 organic signups, a strong sign that the platform is solving a real problem.
Now, the team is focused on expanding. Plans include onboarding more verified agents, running awareness campaigns, and launching new programs like a Realtor Accelerator and a nationwide outreach initiative.
“We’re not just building a platform. We’re building a community that brings house-hunting into the future. There’s a lot more to come,” Rahmon concluded.
With a growing user base and new features in the pipeline, 99Crib is positioning itself as one of Africa’s leading PropTech solutions. The platform is helping people buy, sell, and rent homes with confidence.
