Porchplus vs Jiji
Jiji and Porchplus solve completely different problems. Jiji is where you advertise an empty property. Porchplus is what you use after a tenant moves in — to collect rent, manage the lease, track maintenance, and stay compliant. Most serious Nigerian landlords use both.
End-to-end property management for Nigerian landlords. Rent collection, lease agreements, tenant onboarding, maintenance workflows, compliance, and analytics — built specifically for managing properties, not advertising them.
Nigeria's largest classified marketplace. Great for finding tenants and buyers through public listings, but it stops there: no rent collection, no lease management, no operational tools after the deal closes.
01
Who each is for
Porchplus is for
Landlords who already have tenants and need to manage them properly: collect rent, issue receipts, handle maintenance, track compliance, and build long-term tenant relationships.
Jiji is for
Landlords with a vacant property who need broad public exposure to find a tenant quickly. Once the tenant signs, Jiji's job is done.

Using Porchplus and Jiji together
These tools are complementary, not competitive. List your vacant properties on Jiji to find tenants quickly. Once a tenant is selected, bring them onto Porchplus for the lease, deposit, rent collection, maintenance, and everything else that happens during the tenancy. Many landlords run both systems — Jiji for acquisition, Porchplus for operations.
