Finding a rental in Zimbabwe has never been easy. We decided to change that — permanently.
Who we are
For decades, tenants across Zimbabwe have driven around suburbs looking for hand-painted “To Let” signs, paid agents fees as high as one full month’s rent, and been burned by fake listings and double deposits on WhatsApp. Landlords have been held hostage by agents who charge extortionate commissions and deliver little in return.
We thought that was wrong. So we built something better.
Find My Place is Zimbabwe’s first verified digital rental marketplace. We connect tenants with real, verified landlords across Harare and Zimbabwe — no agents, no fake listings, no wasted weekends. We are not a listings directory. We are not another WhatsApp group. We are a platform built specifically for the realities of the Zimbabwean rental market — mobile-first, EcoCash-compatible, fraud-resistant, and designed to work for everyone.
On a $500/month property, that’s up to $500 in agent fees — paid upfront, whether you get a tenant or not. Find My Place charges 5%. Only when your tenant signs. You save up to $475 every single time.
Find My Place
Our story
Find My Place was founded in Harare by someone who saw the problem firsthand. After watching friends and family waste weekends driving across the city chasing unreliable listings, paying agents who offered nothing more than a phone call, and losing deposits to landlords who never existed — we decided enough was enough.
We partnered with Bad Real Estate, one of Harare’s established property valuation and management companies, to build a platform with real credibility and real supply from day one. Every listing on Find My Place goes through a verification process. Every landlord is confirmed. Every property is real.
We launched with one belief: the rental market in Zimbabwe does not need to change in spite of technology — it needs technology built specifically for it.
What we believe
Every Zimbabwean deserves to find a home without being scammed.
Fraud is endemic in Zimbabwe’s informal rental market. Verification is not optional for us — it is the foundation of everything we build.
Landlords should only pay when they actually get a tenant.
03
The 35–100% agent commission is not just expensive — it is unjust.
We are not competing with agents. We are replacing a broken system with one that works fairly for everyone — landlords, tenants, and the broader rental economy.
04
We understand EcoCash, USD-denominated rentals, mobile-first users, and the trust challenges specific to Zimbabwe. That understanding is built into every decision we make.
Our vision
“
— Find My Place, founded Harare, 2026
We are not just building a platform. We are building the infrastructure for a fairer, more transparent rental economy — one that works for the tenant in Mbare, the landlord in Borrowdale, and everyone in between. Harare is just the beginning.
