Your success on Properti Nigeria hinges on mastering the Request-Offer ecosystem. Unlike passive listing, this is an active, competitive marketplace where you pitch your properties directly to qualified seekers.

The Mindset Shift

Move from waiting for inquiries to proactively seeking demand. The “Requests” page is a live feed of what buyers and tenants want right now. Your job is to match your inventory to these needs faster and better than competitors.

The Winning Process

1. Monitor Requests Diligently: Regularly check the Requests page. Use the filters (location, property type, budget) to find requests that align with your “Area of Coverage” and specialization. This is your pipeline of warm leads.

2. Select the RIGHT Property: Don’t just offer any property. Carefully read the request details. From your “Available” listings, choose the one that matches the seeker’s criteria most closely. Consider location, size, features, and budget.

3. Send a High-Match Offer: When you click “Send Offer,” our algorithm instantly calculates a Match Percentage. This score is your biggest advantage. A 95% match offer will be sorted above an 85% match offer in the seeker’s view. Accuracy in your listing details is paramount—if your listed property has 3 bathrooms but the request asks for 2, your match score suffers.

4. Quality Over Quantity: You have a limited number of offer responses per month based on your subscription plan. Focus on sending fewer, highly-targeted offers rather than blasting every request. A high acceptance rate improves your standing.

Why Match % Matters

It provides objectivity in a subjective process. For a seeker overwhelmed with 15 offers, the match percentage is the primary sorting tool. A high percentage gets you noticed, increases the chance of your offer being accepted, and leads to a booked inspection—your ultimate goal. Ensure your listings are meticulously detailed so the system can accurately calculate this critical number, giving you the competitive edge to win more business.
