Rental services for tenants and landlords in Kampala, Wakiso and Hoima
Verified before we list
Every property is visited, photographed and priced honestly. No bait-and-switch, no fake pictures, no landlord who cannot show a title.
UGX or USD, your choice
Pay in the currency you earn in. We list rentals in both, so a shifting shilling does not move your rent under you.
Real photos and video tours
Every listing has photos taken this month. Ask for a video walkthrough on WhatsApp when you cannot visit in person.
Rent from abroad, before you fly
Reserve a home from London, Toronto or Dubai. We host video viewings for you, negotiate on your behalf and hold the property until you arrive.
Areas that match how you live
Studios in Naalya, family homes in Ntinda, diplomatic residences in Kololo. We match the neighbourhood to the household, not the other way around.
Deposit held on a written agreement
Your deposit sits in a documented contract, not a landlord's pocket. When you leave, you get it back minus documented deductions only.

Questions people ask
Is there a broker fee?
Yes, one month rent for a long lease, prorated for shorter stays. It is disclosed upfront and included in the total you pay before you move in, not asked for later.
Can I pay rent in USD if I earn USD?
Yes, many of our listings quote in USD, especially furnished apartments and expat family homes. You choose the currency at the point of signing the lease.
Do I have to pay a whole year upfront?
No, most of our landlords accept six months or three months at signing, and quarterly renewals after that. A few insist on twelve, and we tell you which before you view.
What happens if the landlord will not return my deposit?
We keep the deposit paperwork on file. If a dispute happens after you leave, we mediate and can escalate to small claims with documented deductions only.
Can I rent from abroad before I fly back?
Yes. We host video viewings on WhatsApp, negotiate terms for you, and hold the property until you arrive. Diaspora clients are a large share of what we do.
Which areas suit families with children?
Ntinda, Naalya, Kira and Muyenga are among the popular family areas, with schools, quiet streets and secure compounds. We narrow it further once we know your school district.
If you own a property to rent out from abroad, our property management team handles the landlord side: rent collection, statements and repairs.
