Local context

Property management in Kisumu.

Kisumu is Kenya's third-largest city and the main commercial hub for western Kenya. The city sits on the shores of Lake Victoria and has seen rapid growth in recent years — new estates, expanding university areas, and an active residential rental market across suburbs like Milimani, Mamboleo, Kondele, Nyalenda, and Riat Hills.

Most Kisumu landlords manage their properties independently. Tenants pay via M-Pesa — Paybill, Pochi la Biashara, or direct phone number — and landlords track payments through WhatsApp and spreadsheets. The challenge is the same in Kisumu as anywhere in Kenya: M-Pesa makes receiving money easy, but tracking it across 10 or 20 tenants every month is time-consuming without a proper system.

KodiBase works the same way in Kisumu as it does in Nairobi. Tenants continue paying your M-Pesa number directly. Each tenant gets a portal link they open in any browser — no app download required — to submit their confirmation code, check their balance, download receipts, and report maintenance issues.

For Kisumu landlords with smaller portfolios, the Starter plan at KES 5,500/month covers up to 15 units. For larger blocks and bedsitter compounds near Kisumu CBD or Maseno University, the Pro plan at KES 8,000/month adds automated reminders, broadcast messaging, and expense tracking.
