Beware Of Agents Offering Lands In An Estate For Sale For As Low As N200k! by Boo3nity(m): 8:52pm On Aug 31, 2013 |
Experience they say, is the most effective teacher. Recently, I have come across people who in trying to secure a landed investment in their's or their kid's names, have dabbled into and have become prey to various "real" and "estate" agents that approach them with a "juicy" offer of plots of land for sale (especially within Ikorodu, Sagamu, Agbara n Igbesa axes, etc) @ N200k. These gullible set of people opt for these "cheap" offer, procure the land and start building their "mansion" with immediate alacrity ONLY to discover that on completion, a few basic YET necessary structures that should be a concrete proof that they indeed are resident in an estate are not (and sadly, will not be) made available by the agents n the agency they represent. I'm talking about good, motorable road (at least an earth road), perimeter fencing for the estate, borehole at strategic places within the estate, a central gate and last but not the least and by far one of the most essential of all these- ELECTRICITY. As much as I sympathize with them on their misadventure, I feel that they share in the blame cos any cool, calm and calculated human would have asked his/herself a few pertinent questions before "dashing" hospital money out to these deceitful vultures. Questions like: * Why is there no gate and perimeter fencing around the estate whose plots are offered to me to buy? (these are the most basic features of a developing estate ready for sale) * What visible plans/ structures are on ground to show that electricity is and indeed will channeled into the estate on completion? * What is the water accessibility options within the estate? Etc. I hope y'all who've had this experience can share yours and learn from this piece of information I shared with you all. For those still bent in purchasing these "awoof" plots of land...BEWARE! God bless us all. |
