Buy, sell and invest in Kigali property with a team you can trust from anywhere in the world
Kigali Yacu Property is a Kigali-based real estate agency serving local buyers, land investors, sellers, tenants and the Rwandan diaspora — with verified titles, dual-currency pricing and a process built for buyers who can't always be in the room.
A real estate agency built around one problem: buying property when you can't inspect it in person
Most of our enquiries come from two kinds of buyer — Rwandans living in the UK, the US, Canada, Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia, Kenya and the UAE who are buying a home or investment from thousands of kilometres away, and local Kigali families or investors who want a straightforward, well-documented transaction. Both need the same thing: a partner who verifies what they're buying before money changes hands.
We work across houses, apartments, villas, land and commercial property, in Gasabo, Kicukiro and Nyarugenge districts and select investment locations beyond the city. Every listing carries a dual price in Rwandan Francs and an indicative US Dollar figure, and every sale goes through the same due diligence process regardless of whether the buyer is standing in the compound or watching a video call from abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy property in Rwanda if I live abroad?
Yes. Foreigners and diaspora Rwandans can both buy property in Rwanda. We handle remote purchases regularly through virtual viewings, notarised power of attorney and escrow-friendly payment structures — see our buying from abroad guide for the full process.
How do I know a property's title is genuine?
We verify the registered owner and UPI (Unique Parcel Identification) number with Rwanda's Land Management and Use Authority, check for disputes or encumbrances, and arrange a physical boundary check before any deposit is paid. Full detail is in our title verification guide.
Do you show prices in US Dollars as well as Rwandan Francs?
Yes, every listing shows RWF as the primary price with an indicative USD equivalent beneath it. RWF is the currency of the actual transaction; the USD figure is for guidance only and can move with the exchange rate.
What areas of Kigali do you cover?
We list and sell property across all three Kigali districts — Gasabo, Kicukiro and Nyarugenge — plus select investment locations outside the city such as Lake Muhazi. See our investment locations pages for neighbourhood-level detail.
How long does a typical purchase take?
A straightforward cash purchase with a verified title can complete in a few weeks once documentation is confirmed. Land parcels or off-plan development purchases can take longer. We give you a realistic timeline once we know the specific property.
Can you help me sell my property instead of buying?
Yes — we offer valuation, marketing and negotiation support for sellers. Start with a free property valuation or go straight to listing your property with us.
