Lamudi Nigeria Retains its Number 1 position with a new milestone of 25,000 Listings

9 October 2014, Online property marketplace, Lamudi has continued its surge to market leadership with another significant milestone. Considered by many as Nigeria’s one-stop shop for selling, buying or renting property, Lamudi has seen online listings surpass 25,000 less than 1 year since it’s official launch.
Head of Product Management and Quality Control, Mr. Leke Ositelu explained that a key emphasis is on rapid growth. He said ‘With a population of over 150 million people, with at least half living in urban areas, we are playing catch up. We are focused on making Lamudi a place where anyone in the country can find a property that suits their needs and budget.’
Managing Director, Lamudi Nigeria, Obi Ejimofo said that with this new milestone, Lamudi Nigeria officially retains its position as the Number 1 real estate website in Nigeria. He said ‘This new milestone does not come as a surprise to us as we are constantly pushing to open up access to the real estate sector for all Nigerians.
But size is not everything; we feel it is equally important to educate both our sellers and buyers on the benefits and pitfalls in the marketplace. This is why we are equally proud of the success of the Lamudi Journal – our portal of knowledge, news and tips on real estate which has reached a milestone of over 100,000 hits per week, barely 4 months since we created it.’ This is an indication of the appetite for knowledge and trust in this sector.’
