The Opportunity

Africa’s real estate is growing. The infrastructure isn’t.

A $300B+ market with structural gaps at every level — from developer financing to investor access. Potrise closes them all in one platform.

$650B

Unfunded developer pipeline annually

Most African developers are confined to local banks and informal networks. They can't access the global institutional capital sitting on the sidelines.

40%

Of global HNWIs interested in African RE

International investors want African real estate exposure, but there's no reliable, curated channel to find and evaluate opportunities.

54

Countries with no unified investment layer

Currency, compliance, escrow, and legal friction make cross-border transactions 10× harder than they need to be. No platform has solved this at scale.

$4T

In institutional capital seeking EM exposure

REITs, DFIs, and family offices seeking African exposure rely on expensive intermediaries and opaque deal flow with no digital infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common investor questions.

Can't find what you're looking for? Schedule a call with our investor relations team.

We have a fully operational platform including marketplace, payment rails, and developer verification. We've completed 50+ developer partnerships across 8 countries and have $2.4B in project pipeline listed. We're now focused on scaling investor acquisition and revenue.

We are raising a $5M seed extension to accelerate growth across platform infrastructure, developer partnerships, and investor marketing. Full term sheet and data room are available to qualified investors on request.

Four revenue streams: (1) Capital origination fees of 1–2% on all capital raised through the platform; (2) Referral fees of 0.5–1% on successful investor introductions; (3) Marketplace SaaS for premium developer listings; (4) Asset management fees of 0.5–1.5% AUM on structured vehicles.

Potrise is the only platform with (1) institutional-grade developer verification at scale, (2) multi-currency cross-border payment rails built natively, (3) both supply and demand sides active, and (4) deep regulatory relationships across African markets. First-mover advantage in infrastructure is substantial and difficult to replicate.

Our 8-point verification covers: company registration and ownership, development track record, land ownership and title, planning permits and approvals, contractor qualification and oversight, financial readiness and capital structure, regulatory compliance, and quality standards. This process typically takes 2–3 weeks.

Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and Egypt are our launch markets — representing over 60% of sub-Saharan Africa's formal real estate market by value. We have active partnerships in all four, with Morocco, Côte d'Ivoire, and South Africa as 2025 expansion targets.

40% product and engineering (infrastructure scale, mobile app, API ecosystem); 30% developer partnerships and geographic expansion; 20% investor acquisition and marketing; 10% operations, compliance, and legal infrastructure.
