About Us

Ajohomes was founded in 2025, building on the proven model of Ajosquad, a successful cooperative savings platform that transformed how Canadian immigrants build wealth collectively.

After seeing hundreds of members successfully save money through collective contributions, founder Ngozi Okonta recognized a more powerful opportunity: the same principles could be applied to real estate investment—the primary wealth-building tool that remained out of reach for most members. Especially now, as Canada faces a critical housing shortage and skyrocketing prices that lock out working-class families from property ownership.

The insight was simple but transformative: Back home in immigrant communities worldwide, people understood collective economics. When someone needed to buy a house, start a business, or make a major investment, the community pooled resources. Everyone contributed, everyone benefited, and wealth stayed within the community.

That wisdom was being lost in Canada’s individualistic financial system. People were expected to save alone, invest alone, and struggle alone—while the housing crisis deepened.

Ajohomes brings that proven power of collective economics to Canadian real estate, modernized with professional legal structures, transparent technology, and regulatory compliance. At a time when Canada needs solutions to its housing shortage, Ajohomes offers a practical answer: enabling working-class Canadians to access property ownership while professional management provides quality rental housing.

The Result: A movement toward economic empowerment, financial inclusion, and community-driven wealth creation.
