From Architecture to PropTech: How Ishaq Willson is Simplifying House Hunting with MyKreeb
Description
In this episode of Made in Africa, host Samuel Kemeshi sits down with Ishaq Willson, co-founder and CEO of MyKreeb, a fast-rising PropTech startup on a mission to transform how Nigerians find and rent apartments.
Ishaq takes us back to his roots growing up in Northern Nigeria, sharing the childhood experiences and values, especially his faith that shaped his worldview. After relocating to Lagos to pursue a career in architecture, Ishaq founded his first startup, which eventually failed. But it was his frustrating personal experience searching for an apartment in Lagos that sparked the idea for MyKreeb.
Now, Ishaq is leading the charge to make house hunting easier, smarter, and more transparent with features like virtual property tours, made possible through MyKreeb’s strategic partnership with a VR technology company.
Whether you’re a founder, real estate enthusiast, or someone navigating the Lagos housing market, this episode is packed with lessons on resilience, innovation, and how to turn everyday problems into game-changing solutions.
