Property management firm, Shelta, has unveiled an online rent payment platform to address issues between landlords and tenants and ease the financial burden on tenants.
The company said its system also enables flexible payment of rents, noting that a tenant could pay monthly, quarterly, bi-yearly or yearly, according to his income.
Its Chief Executive, Austin Igwe, told reporters in Abuja yesterday, that the firm is targeting 5,000 subscribers in Abuja, Lagos, Kano, and 12 other states.
“The platform is not aimed at eliminating estate agents and property managers; it is meant to address the issues of litigation between the landlord and tenant. We are targeting about 5,000 subscribers in 15 states between now and end of next year.”
On the objective of the platform, Igwe said the service was launched to help reduce the stress of tenants who find it hard to pay rents yearly, adding that it would further curb the usual litigation between the landlords and tenants.
