Their core offerings encompass listings such as single-family homes, multi-family units, townhouses, and office spaces, catering to various consumer needs in the real estate sector. The platform connects property seekers—individuals and families looking for residential options—as well as businesses seeking commercial spaces—with over 40,000 properties sourced from more than 230 developers and over 2,500 registered agents. MeQasa primarily serves clients across urban centers in Ghana, including Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, and Tema, facilitating transactions that meet the growing demand for housing and commercial real estate in these areas.MeQasa generates revenue through a commission-based model that involves transactions between property owners, developers, and prospective renters or buyers. The transaction structure typically has property sellers and landlords paying fees to list their properties on the platform, while users gain access to a comprehensive database of available real estate options. Additionally, MeQasa engages in partnerships with real estate developers to feature new residential and commercial projects prominently on their site. This service is particularly valuable for clients looking to reach a wider audience in Ghana's competitive real estate market. The structure enables MeQasa to facilitate smooth and efficient property transactions while bolstering its position within the sector.Moving forward, meQasa aims to enhance its platform with new features and services designed to improve user experience. The company is looking to expand into other regions beyond its current urban centers in Ghana, although specific markets and timelines have yet to be disclosed. The recent funding of USD 0.5 million received in October 2015 is expected to support these growth initiatives by allowing the development of new products and the exploration of additional market opportunities.
