The brief

Moving house or clearing a flat in Lagos means a dozen WhatsApp broadcasts and strangers who never show up. DeclutterSale gives a seller one shareable sale page, lets buyers make offers in chat, and holds an item for a buyer for a fixed window so both sides can plan.

What we built

  • Search by Lagos area and ten categories, with listings of up to eight photos stripped of location data.
  • Realtime chat with offers and counter-offers.
  • Atomic 24-hour reservations, handover confirmation and reviews.
  • Paid featured listings through Paystack, with refunds.
  • Admin moderation, reports, audit history, notifications and an email outbox.

Where it stands

Verified end to end with unit, database and browser tests. A preview runs on Vercel behind a login; production deployment and the domain are next.
