Field notes
The homepage lays out a three-step workflow: registry cross-check, local site visit with parcel geo-tagging, and payment release after transfer documents are confirmed. Its build log separates active work from unfinished infrastructure, marking title verification and the Mombasa pilot live while escrow through M-PESA and bank transfer remains in build. Sample records cover Kilifi North, Athi River, and Nyali, with site visits and escrow setup shown at different stages.
