Property24 Kenya Data Parser & API

Property24 Kenya is a major Kenyan property portal with 30,000+ listings — resale, rental and land inventory backed by Naspers / Prosus — and PropAPIS extracts its listings, agent and location data through a single REST API. It shares the Property24 stack with the dominant South African portal, so one parser family spans both Sub-Saharan markets.

Platform Overview

Market Position

• Major Kenyan portal with 30,000+ listings, backed by Naspers / Prosus (Own It Kenya — best listing sites 2025)
• Shares the Property24 stack with South Africa’s dominant portal (~13M monthly visits) — one parser family covers both markets (per the MENA & Africa research report)
• Competes with BuyRentKenya (#1, ROAM / Ringier-backed) in the Kenyan market
• Low / light anti-bot protection — strong effort-to-coverage in Sub-Saharan Africa
