To make homeownership easier for its clients as well as Nigerians, the real estate and property subsidiary of Interswitch Group, Quickteller Homes, has integrated flexible payment options into its packages.
This initiative that allows payment in instalments was designed to drive a paradigm shift in the country’s real estate market by making homeownership and property rental more accessible.
Quickteller Homes offers a comprehensive ecosystem that bridges the gap between tenants, landlords, and agents. The platform provides seamless access to a variety of properties, catering to nearly every need—whether short-let apartments or properties intended for long-term tenure.
Announcing the new development at the recent SmallSmall Fair 2024 in Lagos, the Divisional Head of Growth Marketing, Merchants and Ecosystem at Quickteller Homes, Mr Olawale Akanbi, said, “Our mission is to ensure that every Nigerian, regardless of their financial standing, has the opportunity to own or rent a property without overwhelming financial stress.”
“Through instalment payments, we provide a flexible, manageable way for people to attain their housing dreams,” he added.
The real estate company said it believes the new initiative will tackle the prevalent issues in the housing sector in Nigeria and ease the financial burden for many Nigerians aspiring to secure accommodation or a foothold on the property ladder.
Beyond connecting users, Quickteller Homes offers essential services, including financing options, utility connections, payment solutions, and a suite of home services, all facilitated through a user-friendly digital platform.
Business Post reports that the SmallSmall Fair, sponsored by Quickteller Homes, is the first of its kind in-person event where companies offering instalment payment options connect directly with thousands of customers, all under one roof.
The 2024 edition, being the inaugural event, delivered exceptional experiences and value to all participants.
A key highlight at the SmallSmall Fair 2024 was the announcement by Quickteller Homes as it aligns with the fair’s broader theme of financial inclusiveness, contributing to a significant movement toward economic empowerment and affordability.
“In a society like ours, credit is one of the infrastructures needed for its middle-class citizens to survive.
“The SmallSmall Fair is designed to help develop the credit system in Nigeria by bringing companies that offer instalment payments together with customers. This initiative aims to increase customer base and revenue,” the chief executive of SmallSmall, Mr Tunde Balogun, said.
