In the heart of Lagos and Nairobi, where rapid urbanisation is creating serious housing challenges, Citiliving is stepping in with bold, tech-driven solutions. Led by Era Iyayi, Founder and CEO, Citiliving is a PropTech company transforming the way people rent, manage, and invest in housing in some of Africa’s most congested cities.
With a vision to simplify and humanise the rental experience, Citiliving offers a seamless all-in-one platform connecting tenants, landlords, developers, investors, and agents. The company tackles pain points such as a lack of trust, poor tenant experiences, and inefficient property management — challenges all too common in developing cities. Its modern properties, like Aura Apartments for young professionals and Aura Residences for families, are purpose-built to match the evolving needs of today’s urban dwellers.
Citliving is one of the proud exhibitors at Lagos Startup Expo 2.0 by Techpoint Africa, and as a lead-up to the event, we had a brief chat with the team.
“We’re solving the frustrating and inefficient rental process by merging real estate expertise with intuitive technology and community-first thinking,” says Iyayi. “Our goal is to make city living simpler, smarter, and more sustainable.”
Why Citiliving is exhibiting at Lagos Startup Expo 2.0
Citiliving sees Lagos Startup Expo 2.0 as a powerful launchpad for visibility and collaboration within Africa’s fast-growing tech ecosystem. As more tech professionals and remote workers move into Lagos, the demand for high-quality, reliable, and well-managed rental spaces continues to grow.
By exhibiting at the Expo, Citiliving aims to introduce their platform to founders, developers, tech talent, and investors; build brand awareness among the innovation community; showcase their newest property developments in Ikeja and Maryland; explore partnerships with PropTech startups and housing-focused investors; and connect with renters by inviting them to experience their platform and current Aura Residence locations.
