Community Guidelines
Effective date: 1 June 2026
OneMusondosi is built on trust. These guidelines exist to keep the community safe, honest, and fair for everyone: tenants, landlords, and agents across Zimbabwe. Violations may result in warnings, strikes, or permanent account removal.
✅ For Everyone
- Be honest. Only post accurate information about yourself, your properties, and your circumstances.
- Be respectful. Treat other users with dignity. Harassment, threats, and abusive language are not tolerated.
- Protect privacy. Do not share another user's phone number, address, or personal details without their consent.
- One account per person. Do not create multiple accounts to bypass rules or suspensions.
- Report don't retaliate. If someone wrongs you, report it through OneMusondosi. Do not take matters into your own hands or spread information publicly.
🏠 For Landlords & Agents
- List real properties. Every listing must be a genuine property you own or are authorised to list. Ghost listings are a serious violation.
- Use accurate photos. Photos must show the actual property, not stock images or photos from another unit.
- Respond promptly. When a tenant places a bid, respond within the bid window. Repeated non-responses harm your reputation and platform trust.
- Honour accepted bids. If you accept a bid and confirm an unlock, you must follow through with showing the property.
- No discrimination. You may not refuse tenants on the basis of tribe, religion, gender, or national origin.
- Keep prices honest. Do not inflate prices after accepting a bid or listing at a price you have no intention of honouring.
🔍 For Tenants
- Bid only if you're serious. A bid signals genuine interest. Do not bid on properties you have no intention of viewing.
- Attend unlocks. If you initiate an unlock, you are expected to view the property. Repeated no-shows will affect your trust score.
- Do not contact landlords outside the platform until the unlock is complete and contact details are formally exchanged.
- Report issues properly. Use OneMusondosi's safety report feature. Do not publish accusations on social media or WhatsApp groups without going through the proper channel first.
🚫 Strictly Prohibited
- Posting fake, duplicate, or misleading listings
- Collecting payments outside the platform to avoid OneMusondosi fees
- Using OneMusondosi to scam, defraud, or extort users
- Uploading stolen or copyrighted property photos
- Impersonating another person or business
- Attempting to access another user's account or data
- Using automated bots or scripts on the platform
- Creating listings for properties you do not have the right to lease
