Our Story

Our origin story is pretty simple.

At one point in the past, our founder tried to engage in real estate investment in East Africa but found the process challenging. From the legalese that serves as knowledge barrier to acquiring property, to the bureaucratic hurdles that are costly and difficult to navigate, put simply, buying property in East Africa is burdensome and challenging process. Having encountered these challenges, our founder thought that a better way to navigate real estate acquisition is deeply needed. A year later, Saro Consultancy was born: to facilitate the process of real estate acquisition and disposition in East Africa.

We grew out of a confluence of different factors:

  • The existing and almost insurmountable legal and industry language that makes understanding the process of buying property difficult and also fosters a culture of gate keeping;

  • The gate keeping in the industry that makes the process costly such that one inevitably requires a middle man to engage in the process of real estate acquisition;

  • The absence of a platform to identify opportunities for investment. As it stands, one requires access to a realtor or a law association to engage in the process;

  • And lastly, the limited online presence of real estate firms, which makes real estate acquisition dependent on informal networks.

Out of these factors, Saro Consultancy was born. We are the only online platform and app to find and invest in real estate in East Africa. With our proprietary verification system that validates buyers and sellers, coupled with our resource hub that demystifies while democratizing the real estate acquisition process in East Africa, as well as our cloud-based integrated platform that connects buyers to sellers, Saro Consultancy is the only and most trusted platform for real estate acquisition and disposition in East Africa.

Our goal is to make the process of real estate acquisition seamless and easy.
