About Us
Avarts Housing Limited was founded in 2006 on the notion of serving its customers with excellence. We recognized a gap in the real estate industry that was causing individuals searching for property to be treated informally and without professionalism. We also realized that many people would like to invest in real estate, but do not have sufficient knowledge, expertise or time for real estate management. Hence at Avarts Housing Limited, we decided to fill this gap and render the appropriate services in the real estate field.
Vision
To be the reliable real estate management services provider in Africa with global solutions.
Our Mission
To serve our customers with excellence and the highest degree of professionalism, bringing simplicity to the process of real estate management.
Values
• Customer focused • Integrity • Timeliness • Honesty • Respect
