What is genuinely hard.
We would rather you heard this from us at the start than discovered it halfway through.
Most companies in this market lead with what goes well. We think you are better served by knowing where the friction is, because these are the points where remote purchases actually fail.
Land title needs verifying
Title fraud is a real hazard in the Malawi property market. Verification takes time, and occasionally our advice will be that a plot is not safe to buy.
Transfers cost money and time
International transfers carry fees and an exchange rate. We show you the rate applied to your funds rather than folding it into a single figure.
Some documents need wet ink
Not every document can be signed electronically. Where the law requires an original signature or notarisation, a physical step is unavoidable.
Construction schedules move
Weather, materials and labour all shift timelines. We report delays as they happen.
Distance requires trust
You are asking someone far away to spend your money well. We try to earn that with documentation rather than promises.
None of this is a reason not to proceed.
It is a reason to have someone on the ground who will tell you when something is wrong. Ask us about your situation.
