About Us

About makaug

Property in Uganda should be easier to find, easier to list, and safer to trust.

makaug is building a Uganda-first property platform for renters, buyers, students, land seekers, property owners, brokers, and businesses.

Uganda-first

Built around local places, local language needs, WhatsApp habits, and real listing workflows.

Free listing

Owners and brokers can list property without a listing fee while paid advertising stays separate.

Web + WhatsApp

Designed for mobile web discovery, WhatsApp contact, dashboard follow-up, and safer decisions.

Who we are

makaug is a Uganda-first property platform for public website search, mobile web, WhatsApp-first contact, multilingual support, and guided free listings. We are built around the practical realities of Uganda’s property market: scattered information, incomplete listings, heavy WhatsApp use, and the need for trust before people view or pay.

Our mission

Our mission is to make property easier to discover, reduce confusion, improve listing quality, help people move from search to viewing to decision, and support Uganda’s property market with better information.

Why makaug exists

Property search in Uganda can be scattered across WhatsApp, brokers, social posts, word of mouth, and incomplete listing pages. Fraud risk exists, students and land seekers need clearer information, and many owners need a guided way to list properly. makaug brings structure, search, safety, and communication together.

Property search engine

How makaug finds property information

makaug is becoming a search engine for Uganda property. We combine direct owner and broker listings with reviewed public or authorised online sources, then route every candidate through King review before it can appear as a trusted live listing.

Source visibility

Found-online listings show when makaug first found them, where the source came from, and whether the source is an agent channel, website, marketplace, or social feed.

Human review

Source data is not posted blindly. The King dashboard checks location, photos, contact details, duplicates, ownership signals, and agent permission before approval.

Claim or remove

Owners and agents can claim, update, replace photos, correct details, or request removal. makaug keeps attribution and a review trail so listings stay accountable.
