About Me
Real Estate investors, stop losing money!
I have 30+ years experience in 15 African markets with my own capital on the line.
I help real estate investors, developers, and Proptech founders across Africa build and buy profitable, scalable projects.
These range from affordable housing to large-scale institutional developments & tech solutions.
My edge sits at the intersection of:
✅ Real Estate Execution (I’ve built it)
✅ Technology Enablement (I’ve scaled it)
✅ African Market Realities (I’ve navigated the risks)
The Track Record:
• Delivered multi-million-dollar real estate projects using my own money.
• Scaled Big Tech solutions across 15 African markets by building the distribution channels.
• Advised local & institutional investors on real estate including risk management strategies needed in Africa.
I don’t just advise from the sidelines; I’ve invested and navigated the real risks on the ground with actual skin in the game.
If you’re buying, developing, investing, or building technology in African real estate and want to avoid costly mistakes while scaling faster, let’s talk.
