Our story

MA + KE

Make Real Estate was founded by Mary Julius and Kelly du Beignet. The name tells our story: MA from Mary, KE from Kelly, united by one goal, setting a new standard for real estate in Tanzania.

Mary knows the ground. Her network spans the country and opens doors that often stay closed to outsiders. Kelly brings the technical rigour and relationship skills that keep buyers, developers, lawyers and tax advisors aligned at every step.

Together with our local legal and tax partners, we serve international clients in a market we believe in. Tanzania is one of East Africa's most promising real estate markets, set for strong growth in the years ahead.

Our mission is simple: guide you through every step of buying property with clarity, care and dedicated support.
