How Makao works
Three steps from searching to keys in hand.
-
Step 1
Search listings
Filter by area, type and budget across long-term homes and short stays.
-
Step 2
Request a viewing or book instantly
Long-term homes get a scheduled viewing. Furnished stays can be booked on the spot.
-
Step 3
Move in or check in
Agree terms in the app, pay securely and collect your keys.
Recently added
A mix of long-term homes and furnished stays.
No fake listings, no phantom viewing fees.
Every listing you see is managed by a real property owner through Makao's own management platform - vacancy is live, not a stale post from three months ago.
Browse homes-
Real photos
Photos are uploaded by the property owner managing the actual unit - no stock images.
-
Live availability
A unit disappears from search the moment it's no longer vacant.
-
Honest pricing
Rent, deposit and short-stay rates come straight from the property owner's own records.
Own a place? List and manage it from right here.
There's no separate system to juggle - the same dashboard you use to list a vacancy also collects rent, messages tenants and tracks every unit, on the very platform renters are searching right now.
List your property-
List once, reach renters instantly
A vacant unit you add shows up in search the moment it's published - no separate listing site to maintain.
-
One dashboard for everything
Rent collection, tenant messaging, maintenance and move-outs, alongside the listing itself - not a separate tool.
-
Get paid via M-Pesa or Pesapal
Tenants pay in-app, straight to the method you set up for your business.
Your next place is a search away.
Start with a long-term home, or book a furnished apartment for the night.
