YES! IT'S TRUE THAT REAL ESTATE CAN BE LOST OR STOLEN (TOWAKANA!).
Someone once said that "Real estate cannot be lost or stolen, nor can it be carried away. Purchased with common sense, paid for in full, and managed with reasonable care, it is about the safest investment in the world". However, the one who said that should have known that Uganda is a different animal, and in the context of Uganda, this idealistic view often clashes with the harsh realities of the local market. Lets break down that saying into pieces and see how it clashes with the real world in Uganda. Real Estate Can Be Stolen (in Uganda).Unlike the secure image of real estate portrayed in that saying, property theft is a real issue in Uganda. Land fraud and property disputes are prevalent, often fueled by unclear land titles and fraudulent transactions. Instances of people losing their properties due to forged documents or dubious dealings are not uncommon. This undermines the sense of security that real estate should ideally provide.

THE REAL ESTATE DÁTABASE (RED) IS A TECHNOLOGY COMPANY, NOT A REAL ESTATE COMPANY.
When you hear the name "Real Estate Database (RED)," what comes to mind? If you're like most people, you probably assume it's just another real estate company. But, let's set the record straight, RED is a technology company that specializes in real estate related technologies, also known as PropTech.
The Technology Behind RED.
Think of RED as a property search engine or a property supermarket which generates real estate leads, rather than the agent or landlord selling homes. Just as Uber doesn't own cars but connects riders with drivers, RED doesn't own properties, it provides the technology that enables agents, brokers, realtors, and real estate investors to connect with buyers and perform their respective jobs more efficiently.
What Makes RED a Technology Company?
