The product

Every part of being a landlord, finally in one place.

From the first SMS invite to the year-end tax return, Safoa handles it. Here's how each piece works.

What Safoa does

Ten modules. One platform.

Everything you need to run a modern property-management business in one place — no bouncing between spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and three different payment apps.

MODULE 01

Property & Unit Management

Structure your portfolio the way it actually works — buildings, blocks, units, and the relationships between them.

MODULE 02

Tenant Management

A complete view of every tenant: lease terms, payment history, contacts, documents and notes. Onboard in minutes.

MODULE 03

Multi-Channel Payments

Collect rent the way tenants pay — mobile money built in, with automatic reconciliation to the right unit.

MODULE 04

AI Tenant Conversations

Conversational AI handles rent reminders, lease queries and routine questions so your inbox stays clean.

Explore
MODULE 05

Tenant Portal & Apps

Give tenants their own login and Android app — lease documents, receipts, maintenance and announcements on any phone.

Explore
MODULE 06

Maintenance Requests

Tenants log issues; you assign and track them through to resolution. No more lost messages or he-said disputes.

MODULE 07

Rent Advance Management

Advance rent is how African rentals work. Track every advance against every unit, with balances and renewals.

MODULE 08

Security Deposit Management

Hold, track and account for deposits with full transparency — and clean handover statements at move-out.

MODULE 09

Document Generation

Generate tenancy agreements, demand notices, receipts and statements in seconds, ready to send.

Explore
MODULE 10

SMS Broadcast Messaging

Reach every tenant at once — broadcast rent notices, announcements and reminders by SMS straight from Safoa.

Rent collection

Get paid the way Africa actually pays.

Tenants pay to your mobile-money number with a Safoa reference. We match the payment to the right invoice, post the receipt, and mark the unit paid — all in seconds. Bank transfers and cash receipts are supported too.

  • Auto-matching for M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, Orange Money and every major local network
  • Partial payments handled — we show what's left
  • SMS receipts in English go out immediately
  • End-of-month reconciliation against your bank statement
  • Mobile-money charges tracked separately so you know who absorbed them

WhatsApp AI Assistant

Your tenants stop calling you at 9pm.

Connect your WhatsApp Business number. Our AI answers tenant questions from their lease — balance owing, when rent is due, how to pay, what their deposit covers. If it can't answer, it tags you with full context.

  • Replies in English with cultural fluency across African contexts
  • Knows each tenant's lease, balance, and history
  • Logs maintenance requests with the photos tenants send
  • Escalates anything sensitive (rent disputes, evictions) to you
  • You can review every conversation from the portal

Boss please my AC for Apt 2A is not cooling at all paaa 😩
Ama, sorry about that 🙏 I've logged a medium-priority maintenance request and notified your landlord. Expect a technician within 24 hours.
Request #MNT-2026-0411
Also how much I owe for May?
May rent for Apt 2A is $235, due 1 May. You have an outstanding balance of $120 from April. Total: $355.
Maintenance

Repairs that don't disappear into a WhatsApp group.

Tenants log issues with a photo. You see urgency, history, and which unit. Dispatch your plumber or electrician with one tap, attach the receipt when it's fixed, and keep a permanent record per unit.

  • Photo-first reporting from the tenant app
  • Urgency triage — high / medium / low
  • Vendor directory with your trusted artisans
  • Cost tracking per repair, per unit, per property
  • Generator service, fumigation, and routine tasks on a recurring schedule

Lease management

Built around the way Africa writes leases.

One-year, two-year, rent-control-compliant, 6-month advance, 1-year advance, escalating rent — we support all of it. Renewals are flagged 60 days out so they never sneak up.

  • Track 6-month, 1-year and 2-year advances against monthly accrual
  • Rent-control registration numbers stored per property (Ghana, Kenya, and other rent-controlled markets)
  • Escalation clauses applied automatically
  • Renewal reminders 60, 30, and 14 days before expiry
  • Lease PDFs generated from your template, signed digitally

Team & permissions

Bring in your managers, caretakers, and accountants.

Granular roles per property — built for individual landlords through full property management companies. Your accountant sees numbers but can't edit them. Your caretaker can log maintenance but not view rent. You stay in charge.

  • Owner, Co-owner, Manager, Caretaker, Accountant, Viewer
  • Per-property scoping — assign one block to one manager
  • Full audit log of who changed what, when
  • SMS or email approvals for sensitive actions (refunds, evictions)
  • Two-factor authentication for owners by default
