A message from our founder

Welcome

To our investors, developers, and partners,

Africa is building. Homes, estates, and infrastructure are rising across the continent, and with them comes one of the greatest wealth-creation opportunities of our generation. Yet too many people have watched that opportunity turn into loss.

I have seen investors commit their savings to projects that never broke ground. I have seen honest developers lose funding because the market cannot tell them apart from those who cut corners. A few unscrupulous actors have made trust expensive for everyone, and the whole industry pays the price.

BuildTrack was founded to change that. We are building the infrastructure of trust for African real estate: independent verification of developers and projects, risk scoring that reflects reality, and escrow that releases funds only when work is done. When the process is transparent, fraud has nowhere to hide and good builders finally get the credit they deserve.

Let me be plain about what drives us. We are committed to this cause above the rewards it may bring. Those rewards matter, and we intend to build a strong and lasting company. But we will never let growth come at the cost of the people we exist to protect. That conviction is written into our values and into how our platform works.

I believe building in Africa should be safe, simple, and worthy of trust. I believe we can make that true, and that in doing so we will help make the world a better place, one verified project at a time.

I invite you to build it with us.

With conviction and gratitude,
Williams Salami
Founder/CEO, BuildTrack Africa

Company values

Four values that guide how we operate.

Everything we do — from tracking to reporting to how we work with developers and investors — comes down to four values that guide how we operate.

Trust

At BuildTrack, trust drives everything we do. By replacing uncertainty with transparency — in progress tracking, reporting, and ROI insights — we help developers and investors build confidence, together, project by project.

Innovation

Solving real construction challenges with smart technology — turning complexity into clarity, uncertainty into insight, and outdated processes into tools that help Africa build faster, smarter, and stronger.

Quality

Quality means precision and consistency — accurate tracking, reliable data, disciplined execution. Just as strong buildings demand high standards, we hold our platform to the same, because only excellence earns lasting trust.

Integrity

Honest data, transparent reporting, and accountability to every developer and investor who trusts us with their project’s true progress.

The problem we exist to solve

Too many Nigerian projects stall after the money moves.

Buyers pay deposits for homes that are delivered late or not at all. Diaspora families send money home for buildings they cannot see. Good developers struggle to prove they are different, and lenders lack reliable data to finance them.

The root cause is simple. Money is released on trust, before progress is proven. BuildTrack reverses that order.

Our approach

Neutral infrastructure, not another middleman.

BuildTrack does not hold your money. Funds sit with a licensed bank acting as escrow agent. Our role is the verification rail: we underwrite developers and projects, set the milestone standard, coordinate independent inspections, and tell the bank when a stage has been earned.

Our platform, Escropro, puts every stakeholder on the same record, so a release in Abuja is visible to an investor in Houston within minutes.

Mission

Make every money invested in property traceable to verified progress.

Vision

The trusted infrastructure layer for real estate development across Africa.

What we stand for

Four principles behind every release.

Evidence first

No payment moves without documented, inspected progress.

Neutrality

We serve the transaction, not one side of it. Banks hold funds; monitors verify.

Transparency

Investors, developers and partners see the same data at the same time.

Accountability

Clear standards and records that regulators and lenders can audit.
