This unlocks full platform access — contacting owners, making offers, listing properties. Takes about 3 minutes.
Your 11-digit National Identity Number. Used for manual verification by our team — never shared publicly.
Our team manually compares your selfie to your ID photo. Accepted: National ID, Driver's Licence, Voter's Card, International Passport.
A verified, escrow-backed, lawyer-reviewed, police-linked real estate platform. Here's every layer of protection we've built.
Every property owner and every renter/buyer must verify their identity before any transaction begins. Verification is a 3-step manual process: upload a government-issued photo ID (National ID, Driver's Licence, Voter's Card, or International Passport), submit a live selfie for face comparison, and confirm your phone number via OTP. A next-of-kin declaration adds a third layer of accountability. Our internal team reviews every submission within 24 hours. NIMC API integration is planned for a future phase and will add automated verification without changing anything users see.
Before a listing goes live, our internal team — supported by a panel of NBA-registered lawyers — verifies the property's title documents against state land registry records. We check for encumbrances, government acquisition zones, ownership disputes, and document authenticity. Only properties that pass this review appear on the platform.
All buy transactions and commercial leases include a review by a GeoEstate-panel lawyer registered with the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA). The lawyer reviews title documents, drafts or reviews the transaction agreement, and certifies the deal before funds are released from escrow. Legal fees are charged separately from the platform fee.
Phase 1 (Current): All payments are made by bank transfer to GeoEstate's designated account. Our dedicated CBN-compliant escrow account is currently being processed and will be integrated in Phase 2. Funds are held by GeoEstate and released only when both parties confirm handover on the platform. 90% goes to the property owner; 10% is GeoEstate's platform fee (plus a 5% service fee from the buyer/renter). If a listing is found fraudulent after payment, the full amount is refunded within 5 business days.
Phase 2 (Coming Soon): Full Paystack-powered escrow — automated, ring-fenced, and CBN-compliant.
GeoEstate NIG Limited maintains a formal MOU with the Nigeria Police Force Criminal Investigation Department (CID). When a fraud complaint is raised, the platform automatically generates a case file containing the verified identities of both parties, the property records, and the full transaction trail — and submits it to the NPF liaison. Victims no longer need to "prove" fraud from scratch.
Every property is pinned to a precise GPS coordinate. Listing photos must be geo-tagged and taken at the property location — we validate EXIF coordinates against the declared address (within 200m). The interactive map lets you search by state, LGA, or draw a custom area. Future layers will add proximity intelligence: schools, hospitals, police stations, and infrastructure.
We built GeoEstate because we've seen what property fraud does to families. Every member of this team is committed to making Nigerian real estate safe, transparent, and traceable.
Aminah Co-Founded GeoEstate after witnessing firsthand how illegal agent fees and fraudulent property listings destroy the financial futures of ordinary Nigerians. Her vision is a real estate market where every transaction is traceable, every owner is verified, and no victim has to fight alone.
We're building Nigeria's most trusted property platform. If you share that mission, we'd love to hear from you.
Whether you have a question about a listing, need help with verification, or want to report a problem — we're here and we respond fast.
If you have been defrauded, extorted, or encountered an illegal fee demand — report it here. Every complaint is reviewed by our team within 2 hours and escalated to the Nigeria Police Force CID where required. Your verified identity protects you.

Effective date: 7 June 2026 · GeoEstate NIG Limited · These terms govern your use of the GeoEstate platform.
By registering on or using the GeoEstate platform (the "Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform. These terms apply to all users — property owners, renters, buyers, and lessees.
GeoEstate is a technology platform that facilitates connections between verified property owners and verified renters/buyers in Nigeria. GeoEstate is not a real estate agent, broker, or property manager. We do not own any property listed on the Platform. We provide the technology, verification infrastructure, and transaction coordination — the contract is between the owner and the renter/buyer.
You must be at least 18 years old to use the Platform. You must provide accurate, complete, and truthful information during registration and verification. You must be a Nigerian resident or have a valid Nigerian address to list or transact on the Platform.
All users must complete identity verification before listing a property or initiating a transaction. Verification requires submission of a government-issued photo ID, a live selfie, and a next-of-kin declaration. Submitting false, forged, or misleading documents is a criminal offence under Nigerian law and will result in immediate account suspension, reporting to the Nigeria Police Force CID, and potential prosecution.
Property owners warrant that: (a) they are the lawful owner of the listed property or have legal authority to list it; (b) all submitted title documents are genuine and unencumbered; (c) all property information, photographs, and pricing are accurate. GeoEstate reserves the right to remove any listing that fails verification or is found to be misleading, fraudulent, or in breach of these terms.
GeoEstate charges a 10% platform fee on every successfully completed transaction. This fee is deducted from the total transaction amount before the property owner receives their 90% share. The platform fee is non-negotiable and non-refundable once a transaction is completed. The fee covers verification, transaction coordination, document management, lawyer panel access, and NPF liaison services.
The following are strictly prohibited on the Platform:
Violation of any prohibition may result in immediate account suspension, forfeiture of any funds in escrow, reporting to the Nigeria Police Force CID, and civil or criminal legal action.
All payments must be made through the GeoEstate platform. During Phase 1, payments are made by bank transfer to the GeoEstate designated account. The account details will be provided by the GeoEstate sales team before any transaction is finalised — do not transfer to any account unless confirmed by GeoEstate staff. A unique reference code is required in the transfer narration. Funds are released to property owners only after handover is confirmed by both parties on the Platform. GeoEstate's dedicated CBN-compliant escrow account is currently being processed and will be integrated in Phase 2 (Paystack integration). If a listing is found to be fraudulent after payment but before handover, the full amount is refunded to the renter/buyer within 5 business days. Disputes are handled per Section 10.
GeoEstate maintains a panel of NBA-registered lawyers who are assigned to high-value transactions (buy transactions and commercial leases above ₦5,000,000). Lawyer fees are charged separately from the platform fee and are disclosed before assignment. GeoEstate is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Lawyers on the panel are independent professionals.
If a dispute arises between a property owner and a renter/buyer, either party may file a complaint through the GeoEstate dispute form. GeoEstate will review the complaint within 2 hours and attempt to mediate. If fraud is confirmed, GeoEstate will submit a case file to the NPF CID containing the verified identities of both parties and the full transaction trail. For civil disputes, GeoEstate may refer the matter to a panel lawyer for arbitration. GeoEstate's decision on dispute resolution is final for the purposes of escrow fund release.
GeoEstate is a technology platform and is not liable for: (a) the condition or quality of any property listed; (b) the conduct of any user after identity verification; (c) losses arising from transactions conducted outside the Platform; (d) delays in verification or fund release caused by circumstances beyond our control. GeoEstate's total liability to any user for any claim arising from use of the Platform shall not exceed the platform fee paid in respect of the relevant transaction.
These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Any dispute arising from these terms that cannot be resolved through the Platform's dispute resolution process shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Lagos State, Nigeria.
GeoEstate may update these Terms of Service from time to time. We will notify registered users of material changes at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
