Why?
IARC exists
Africa's Housing Gap
Africa faces a shortfall of 51 million housing units, with demand growing faster than supply across every region of the continent.
A $1.4 Trillion Finance Gap
Capital exists on the continent but is not yet fully connected to viable real estate opportunities. Bridging that gap is the work.
Disconnected Markets
African real estate markets operate in silos. Realtors, developers, and investors rarely share intelligence or collaborate across borders.
The Need for Coordination
The continent needs more than isolated conversations, it needs a platform where market actors meet, compare realities, and build practical responses.
Growing Economies, Ready Markets
African economies grew at 4.4% in 2025. The opportunity is real, but real estate businesses must become better structured and investment-ready to capture it.
