Nearra shows you the skills of the people around you. The braider three houses down. The developer across the street. The plumber who can actually come today. Nearra is a free, location-based directory of what your neighbours do — sorted by how close they are. FIND SOMEONE NEARBY • Browse people near you by skill, category or distance — no account needed • See reviews from neighbours and customers who have actually worked with them • Message someone directly and agree the job between the two of you GET FOUND FOR WHAT YOU DO • List your skill in about two minutes. It is free, and it stays free. • Your listing becomes a link and a QR code that works anywhere — drop it in a group chat, put it on a poster, stick it on the back of your car • Neighbours find you by distance, not by ad spend ASK THE BLOCK • Post what you need on the Wanted board, and people nearby who can help raise their hand • No bidding wars and no lead fees — just the neighbours who actually do that thing SELL WHAT YOU LIKE, TO THE STREET • Put anything up in about a minute — a photo and a price • Your listing carries your face, your name and how far away you are, so a buyer knows who they are dealing with before they message • It stays up until you mark it sold or take it down • No money moves through Nearra. You agree the price and the handover between you, the same as you would in a group chat. NEARRA NEVER TAKES A CUT Hire someone you found here and you pay them directly, however the two of you agree. Nearra handles no bookings, takes no commission, and is not a party to the job. YOUR ADDRESS STAYS YOURS Neighbours see roughly how far away you are and the area name you chose — never your street, never a pin on your house. Your contact details are shown only to someone signed in who chooses to see them. Nearra is built for South Africa first — the estates, campuses and suburbs where the person you need is usually a lot closer than you think. Something broken, or an idea?
