Land subdivision and plot sales have become one of the fastest-growing investment areas across Kenya and many emerging markets. New projects launch every month, companies acquire large parcels of land, subdivide them, and sell plots on cash or installment terms.
Yet behind this growth, many land-selling businesses are struggling with something fundamental:
Control.
Despite handling projects worth millions, many companies still rely on spreadsheets, manual records, WhatsApp communication, and disconnected tools to run operations.
The result is predictable: confusion, revenue leakages, delayed payments, unclear profitability, and management decisions based on assumptions instead of data.
To address this challenge, we built Ardhipro, an end-to-end land sales and property development management system designed specifically for land-buying, subdivision, and resale companies.
This article explains the common challenges in land sales businesses and how Ardhipro solves them.
The Hidden Problems in Land Sales Businesses
Most land-selling companies encounter similar operational challenges as they grow.
1. Unknown Plot Costs
Companies often know how much land was bought, but struggle to calculate:
- The actual cost per plot after subdivision
- Legal and survey costs per plot
- Infrastructure development costs
- Marketing and operational expenses per project
Without accurate costing, selling prices are often guessed, leading to reduced or unknown margins.
2. Installment Sales Become Difficult to Manage
Hire purchase or installment-based plot sales introduce complexity:
- Buyers miss payments
- Installment schedules become hard to track
- Manual follow-ups consume staff time
- Outstanding balances become unclear
Over time, businesses lose visibility of what is owed and what has been paid.
3. Refunds and Repossessions Create Chaos
When customers default or request refunds:
- Records are manually adjusted
- Plots may remain incorrectly marked as sold
- Financial positions become inconsistent
- Reselling repossessed plots becomes messy
Without proper systems, these scenarios cause confusion and financial loss.
4. Profitability Is Often Guesswork
Many directors cannot confidently answer:
- Are we profitable per plot?
- Are we profitable per project?
- Are expenses eating into margins?
- Is cash flow matching expected revenue?
Cash collected is often mistaken for profit.
5. Customer Communication Is Manual
Follow-ups for payments and invoice notifications are often handled manually, resulting in:
- Missed communication
- Payment delays
- Customer misunderstandings
- Operational inefficiencies

It is designed for:
- Land subdivision companies
