What is Funamu Motors & Property?
Funamu's place to buy and sell cars, land, houses and units in new developments. Property is for sale only: there is no renting on Funamu.
Who can sell?
Private people from their Funamu account, and businesses (dealers, fleets, agencies, brokers and developers) from the Merchants app.
Listings3
Are listings checked?
Listings are reviewed by Funamu Operations before they go live, and sellers must reconfirm that an item is still available. A listing shows what has been verified, by whom, and what has not.
Is a seller's logbook or title proof of ownership?
No. An uploaded document is shown as submitted, not as proof. Only a Funamu reviewer, an approved professional or an official result recorded with evidence marks a check as passed.
Are the prices sale prices?
No. They are asking prices set by sellers. Funamu also shows the range of similar asking prices.
Buying2
How do I view a car or a property?
Ask the seller in the app and book a viewing, a test drive or an inspection. Everything stays in one thread.
How do offers work?
Make an offer; the seller accepts, declines or counters. An accepted offer opens a deal with the agreed price.
Deals1
What happens in a deal?
The deal lists the steps it needs. For cars: documents, inspection, handover, your acknowledgement and evidence of the ownership transfer. For property: due diligence, an official search, a survey or inspection, a professional review, the agreement, transfer and registration. Funamu Operations reviews the steps and then approves completion.
Payment2
How do I pay?
Through Funamu with mobile money (up to UGX 5,000,000) or a Visa or Mastercard card. You are charged once per deal.
When is the seller paid?
After Funamu approves the deal's completion. Until then Funamu does not pay the money out. Funamu's commission, shown in the deal, is taken from the seller's side.
Documents1
Who can see my documents?
Only people you give access to, through short-lived links. Every access, grant and removal is recorded.
Professionals1
Can I book an inspector or a lawyer?
Yes. Book professionals Funamu has approved: inspectors, garages, history providers, surveyors, valuers, lawyers and more. Their report is their own professional statement.
Funamu AI1
How does Funamu AI help?
It builds a due-diligence checklist for the car or plot, compares listings and drafts messages and offers for you. It can never approve a document, verify anything, accept on your behalf or move money.
Developers1
Can developers list projects?
Yes. A developer lists a development with progress updates and its units from the Merchants app.
