Problem Reality 🏚️ **Agent extortion:** Local agents charge illegal fees of 15–20% annual rent — cash only, no receipts, no accountability, no recourse for tenants. ⏳ **Exhausting search:** Tenants spend weeks or months visiting fake, misrepresented, or already-taken properties before finding anything real. 💸 **Hidden costs:** Agreement, caution, and agent fees only appear at signing — when the tenant is already emotionally invested and pressured to proceed. ♿ **Inaccessibility:** No Nigerian rental platform collects accessibility data.
