🛡️ Verification Process

AddisRealty verification process

Exactly what the "Verified" badge means — and what it does not.

✅ What the "Verified" badge confirms

✓Agent's business / brokerage license — cross-checked against Ethiopia's Ministry of Trade
✓Agent's Kebele ID document
✓Listing photos are real and current — not stock images or photos of a different unit
✓Asking price is within reason for the neighbourhood

⚠️ What we explicitly do not verify

!Direct legal status of the property title / karta — this must be confirmed at the Woreda/Kebele office before any payment
!The seller's ultimate authority to sell on the owner's behalf
!Number of years remaining on the leasehold
!Whether the property has any outstanding mortgage or lien
!Disputes with neighbours or boundary disagreements

Always run your own due diligence at the Woreda/Kebele land registry before signing anything or transferring funds.
