The members of the press raised a number of questions which mirrored the concerns of would-be users of the PropertyPro site. One of the questions asked related to how the company protects property buyers and other clients on the site. The company stated that although its business model is based on connecting real estate players, it recognizes the importance of user protection and has taken extra steps to ensure the quality of listings, agents and clients on the site through its verification process. This process includes the collection of valid credentials of individuals and companies to help verify the identities of those who post on the site and ensuring the prices of properties correspond with the location and type of property posted. Another method of quality control on the website is the agent review which is done by clients who have worked with the agents in the past. The company also clarified a common misconception relating to offline transactions and stated that it does not handle offline transactions – it, however, stated that it has provided guidelines on the site to help users make the right decisions during transactions.
Another question which was asked at the conference was why PropertyPro.ng should be preferred by users to other digital real estate brands. Fikayo Ogundipe, The Chief Executive Officer, noted that the company is a pioneer that has honed its service skills over the years through constant refining. It stated that it had built a trusted brand by ensuring that the quality of agents, property, and leads is top-notch and stressed its continuous efforts to maintain the same.
