No More 10% Fees: How Landlords Can Use APATA to Connect Directly with Tenants

Finding or renting a property in Ghana has always come with one hidden cost — the agent’s 10% commission. For years, landlords have had to rely heavily on middlemen to market their properties, while tenants and buyers often end up paying extra fees just to secure a place. The result? Higher costs, slower deals, and in some cases, frustration with fake or unreliable listings.

But things are changing. With the APATA real estate app, landlords no longer need to depend solely on agents, and tenants can finally connect directly with property owners — saving money, time, and stress.

🚪 The Problem With Traditional Listings

Imagine this: a tenant finds a perfect two-bedroom apartment, only to be told they must pay an additional 10% fee to the agent before they can move in. Or a landlord waits weeks because their property is not being properly marketed by the middleman. These challenges are all too common in Ghana’s property market.

📲 The APATA Shortcut: Direct Access, Zero Middleman Fees

APATA changes the game by giving landlords control and offering renters transparency. Instead of depending on third parties, landlords can:

• List properties directly on the app in minutes.
• Connect with genuine tenants through real-time messaging.
• Save on commission fees, meaning more profit stays with the owner.

For tenants, it’s equally powerful:

• No 10% agent fee – pay only your rent or purchase cost.
• Verified listings ensure that the property is real and safe.
• Filters and search tools help you find your dream home faster.

💡 Real-Life Example

Ama, a landlord in East Legon, recently listed her property on APATA. Within 48 hours, she connected with two serious renters, closed the deal, and saved thousands in agent fees. On the other side, her tenant, Yaw, was relieved to pay only the agreed rent, not an inflated agent charge.
