About

We built the platform we wish existed when our own families were being scammed.

Over 17 million Nigerians live abroad. They send home more than $20 billion in remittances every year — much of it intended for property. And every year, a heartbreaking share of that money disappears into fake land sales, phantom developers, and "trusted" middlemen who vanish once the wire clears.

DiasporaKeys started in 2024 when our founding team — a Nigerian property lawyer in Lagos and a fintech operator in London — kept getting the same panicked WhatsApp message: "Please, can you check this land for my uncle before he pays?"

We built a company around that message. Every property we list has been walked, video-recorded, legally cleared, and priced by us. Every payment moves through licensed Nigerian escrow. Every buyer has a real human concierge on WhatsApp.

We don't want to be Nigeria's biggest property marketplace. We want to be the one Nigerians in the diaspora recommend to their family without hesitation.
