MadamVanessa:

seems like

Lalasticlala, please kindly tell us the reason for your disappearance.

We're missing you man

As at the end of last month, Seun admitted on Twitter that he is the still the super mod. However the fella has not behaved any professionally nor with any iota of courtesy. He ignores those that care about him with utter disdain and with an alarming arrogance or ignorance that would cause the most talented to vanish into oblivion. Folks are fast forgetting him and the platform is moving on.

A simple statement for the members of the forum you have served close to a decade and have put some reputation into your service, is not out of place, how you choose not to build on that goodwill but rather put it to waste- is a tragedy.

You don’t have to even get into details. For those that may be interested in you, your silence is an admission of some wrong or an acknowledgment of your exit, which perhaps could be laid to rest if you have just a pint of professionalism in you. A similar happened to Seun. He could have been the face of social media in Africa if he did not lock himself up but instead engaged the actual media, opened himself up for conferences and be invested in the growth of the platform. Facebook was launched a little before Nairaland, if he had the mind of Zuckerberg or recruited the best minds from our universities. He will be face of the Africa internet. The under utilized potential should serve as a lesson.

To your question; you should consider the proximity of the land to your work place. Consider the facilities available in the neighborhood. Check whether during the raining season, the land will be an ocean, this is the topography of the land. There are several estates that will not only specify what you can build but also require further financial commitments from you, so have this in mind. Check the accessibility. Be sure about the legitimacy of the seller; Check if the land is secured from government incursion or other hoodlums or another party laying claim and so endeavor to have strong evidence of payments and that documents supporting the transfer are genuine.

You're very correct that... Some of these moderators do feel like Kings.

This is actually a good advice to both lala and seun. I don't know what seun is afraid of.

LaLa missing you bro.

With my little understanding before you aquire landed property.
1. Price
2. Location
3. Get Experience Survivor & Lawyer
4. Chatting (if not under acquisition)
5. Family Background (if no dispute on such land)
6. Try to visit Baale in charge of the community
7. Know your finishing cost.
8. Get registered copy survey & CofO

You're good to go.
If Government need the land in the nearest future, you will get compensation of current worth.

My penny
I way be wrong
I'm sure am very correct
