01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

A lot of times,getting accommodation in institutions off-campus can be a challenge . There isn't enough capacity to house all students on-camp,therefore the ones who ddnt meet the requirements to stay on camp are often excluded and left to make plans for themselves. This leads to many being taken advantage off by scammers who claim to be Landlords,who then take their money and disappear. Its often the most challenging for 1st year students and those from unfavorable backgrounds because finding affordable accommodation that is near is also a challenge. Being stressed while trying to focus on their books is often discouraging and sometimes others aren't able to cope with this much stress and end up deregistering later on due to the stress build up. Which prevents them from acquiring Good education.

Room king, RE/MAX , Malan properties, They all focus on standard accomodation for the working class. None of them focus on students and even if they were to, the opportunity of being a student gives me an advantage.

We cater for students specifically, meaning our main target market are Landlords in the local areas and townships and students . We also offer differentiated services because none of the competitors offer Transportation for moving and storage facilities.
