Read this to avoid buying properties that could get demolished by the Lagos State Government

EnohUmukoro:
Demolitions in Lagos: What You Need to Know Before Buying Property in Lagos and Nigeria

Lagos had the reoccurring sad news of demolitions, especially in 2023. From one area to another, homeowners were faced with the unsettling fear: Will my house be next? The uncertainty had many asking, “Is Lagos still a safe place to invest in real estate?” And for good reason — concerns about the legitimacy of property deals and trustworthiness of real estate companies have never been higher.

The Real Truth: What Every Land and Property Buyer in Lagos Must Know

If you're considering buying land or property as a real estate investor in Lagos, it’s essential to take the right steps to ensure that your investment is safe. Here are 7 key tips that will guide you through the property purchase process, helping you ask the right questions and avoid costly mistakes.

1. Conduct a Proper Title Search
Before signing any documents, ensure you carry out a comprehensive title search at the Lagos State Land Registry. This step helps confirm the legal ownership of the property and reveals any encumbrances or claims that could affect your ownership.

2. Survey the Land
Engage a licensed surveyor to perform a land survey. This ensures that the boundaries of the property match what’s stated on the documents. It will also show you whether the land encroaches on government-owned areas like canals or highways.

3. Check for Building Control Issues
Properties in Lagos are subject to strict building regulations. Before purchasing, visit the Lagos Building Control Agency (LABSCA) to verify if there are any existing contraventions or demolition notices. Buying a property with unresolved issues can lead to problems later, including possible demolition.

4. Verify Location and Setbacks
It’s crucial to check the property’s proximity to sensitive areas like pipelines, high-tension wires, canals, or highways. The Lagos State New Town Development Authority can provide detailed maps and information about restricted areas. Properties too close to main roads without proper setbacks are especially risky.

5. Obtain Necessary Permits
Before starting any construction on a property, ensure you have the correct permits. The Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority (LASPPPA) and the Lagos State Building Control Agency are the bodies responsible for issuing permits. Failing to secure these can result in hefty fines or forced demolition.

6. Environmental Approval is Key
The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) evaluates potential projects for their environmental and public health impact. It's essential to get their approval, especially for large-scale developments. This ensures your project does not face issues related to environmental safety.

7. Work with a Trusted Realtor
In a market as volatile as Lagos, partnering with a trusted real estate company like Real Estate with Enoh can give you peace of mind. We handle all the paperwork, inspections, and legal procedures, ensuring your transaction is safe and compliant with all regulatory standards.

Why Choose Real Estate with Enoh?
At Real Estate with Enoh, we pride ourselves on providing safe and secure property transactions. Our expert team ensures that every property we offer complies with Lagos State regulations, giving our clients confidence in their investment decisions.

Benefits of Owning Land with C of O Land in Ibeju-Lekki with a Small Initial Deposit and Installment Payment Plan

Investing in real estate is one of the smartest financial decisions you can make today, especially when it comes to land with a Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) in a rapidly developing area like Ibeju-Lekki. Here are some key benefits of investing in C of O land in this key location with an affordable initial deposit and flexible installment plan:

1. Legal Security and Peace of Mind
A land with a C of O is legally recognized by the government as yours. This ensures that your investment is secure and free from any disputes or future government acquisition. When you invest in C of O land in Ibeju-Lekki, you're safeguarding your money and avoiding the potential legal battles that may come with lands without proper documentation.

2. High Return on Investment (ROI)
Ibeju-Lekki is Lagos' new investment hub, attracting multinational companies and large-scale infrastructural projects like the Dangote Refinery, Lekki Deep Sea Port, and Lekki Free Trade Zone. By investing in this region, you are positioning yourself to benefit from skyrocketing land appreciation rates. With major projects already underway, land prices will only keep rising, making your small initial deposit a valuable long-term asset.

3. Flexibility with Payment Plans
Not everyone has the means to make an outright payment for land. By offering a small initial deposit (as low as 5 million naira) and a flexible installment plan, you can gradually acquire land and property without straining your finances. This flexibility allows more people to invest in real estate, regardless of their current financial standing, making homeownership and land acquisition more accessible.

4. Access to Strategic Location
Ibeju-Lekki is home to several high-profile projects, including the proposed Lekki International Airport, Pan Atlantic University, and Eleko Beach. These developments make the area highly desirable for both residential and commercial purposes. Investing in a property here means that you'll be part of an up-and-coming, affluent community with excellent infrastructure.

5. Opportunity for Future Development
With land prices set to rise, owning a piece of land in Ibeju-Lekki allows you to build for future purposes, whether it’s for residential use, commercial establishments, or even resale. With strategic planning, you could potentially turn your initial investment into a highly profitable venture.

6. Flexible Size Options

Reacting to the Lekki Waterfront Setback Encroachment: Key Insights for Lagos Real Estate Investors

The recent action by the Lagos State Government, serving contravention notices to major establishments like Farm City, Jonah Court, DHL, Polo Avenue, and 65 others in Lekki Phase I, highlights a significant regulatory development that real estate investors must take seriously. The notices, which stem from violations of the Lagos State Waterfront law No 3 of 2009, particularly target encroachments on the Lekki Waterfront setback.

As a top-selling realtor and expert in Lagos real estate, here are critical insights investors should consider:

1. Compliance with Waterfront Law
The Lagos State Waterfront law No 3 of 2009 strictly regulates waterfront developments to protect natural resources and ensure sustainable growth. Investors should review their land titles and ensure they comply with the setback regulations. Ignorance of this law can lead to hefty fines, property demolition, or loss of investment.

2. Impact on Property Values
The Waterfront areas, particularly in high-demand zones like Lekki Phase I, are prime real estate. While encroachments might offer short-term gains, long-term risks now include potential legal battles or property devaluation. Legal disputes and government sanctions can scare off future buyers or tenants, reducing property appeal and market value.

3. Opportunities in Compliance
Investors who prioritize compliance and sustainable development can seize opportunities in this regulatory environment. Properties fully adhering to waterfront regulations will likely retain or even appreciate in value, as they provide peace of mind to buyers and investors. This presents a strategic moment to differentiate legal, well-documented properties in your portfolio.

4. Due Diligence is Non-Negotiable
Whether you are purchasing land, developing property, or investing in a project, ensure that your legal documentation is in order. Seek clearance from the Lagos Ministry of Waterfront Infrastructure Development and verify all waterfront setback authorizations. Engaging with real estate professionals to navigate these complexities will mitigate risks.

5. Anticipate Increased Government Scrutiny
The government’s actions demonstrate its commitment to restoring order along the Lagos Waterfront. Real estate developers should expect increased monitoring and potential reforms aimed at preserving the environment and making Lagos more attractive to investors. Keeping abreast of new policies and maintaining flexibility in project plans will help investors stay compliant.

6. The Role of Waterfront Properties in Lagos' Future
Waterfront properties remain a major draw for both local and international investors. However, responsible development that aligns with state regulations will be key to long-term profitability. The state’s commitment to infrastructure and environmental sustainability will eventually enhance the appeal of these areas for tourism and luxury development.

Conclusion
The Lagos State Government’s recent crackdown on encroachments along the Lekki Waterfront is a wake-up call for all stakeholders in Lagos real estate. Investors must ensure compliance with the state’s regulations to avoid financial losses and reputational damage. Proper legal due diligence and a focus on sustainable development will help investors protect and grow their investments in this thriving yet regulated sector.

Should Nigerians in the Diaspora Invest in Owning a House in Nigeria Pros and Cons Explored

As a Nigerian living abroad, you may be wondering, "Should Nigerians in the diaspora invest in owning a house in Nigeria?" It's a question many face when considering their ties to home and financial future. With Nigeria’s real estate market rapidly growing, this decision can be both emotionally and financially significant. In this article, we’ll explore the pros and cons of owning a house in Nigeria for Nigerians in the diaspora to help you make an informed choice.

Why Nigerians in the Diaspora Should Invest in Owning a House in Nigeria – The Pros
1. Strong Connection to Home
Owning a home in Nigeria provides a direct link to your heritage and family. It gives you a place to return to during holidays, family events, and even retirement. Your children can also experience their Nigerian roots firsthand. For many, this emotional connection makes the investment worthwhile.

2. High Returns on Investment
Nigeria’s real estate market, particularly in Lagos, Abuja, and other major cities, is booming. Property values continue to rise, and owning a house in these areas can result in substantial capital gains over time. Renting out the home while living abroad can also provide a steady income stream, especially in high-demand locations.

3. Hedge Against Inflation
With the naira’s frequent devaluation and inflation in Nigeria, investing in real estate offers a stable asset that retains value. Owning a house in Nigeria is a tangible investment that helps protect your wealth from the impact of rising inflation rates.

4. Long-Term Retirement Plan
Many Nigerians in the diaspora eventually plan to retire back home. Investing in a house now ensures you have a comfortable, familiar place to return to without the stress of finding property later in life. It’s a smart way to plan ahead and secure a retirement option.

Challenges of Owning a House in Nigeria as a Diaspora Nigerian – The Cons

1. Property Management Issues
Managing a property in Nigeria while living abroad can be a significant challenge. Without a trusted person or professional property management company, maintaining the house or collecting rent can be difficult. There's a risk of dealing with unreliable tenants, squatters, or fraud if you don't have proper oversight.

2. Economic Instability
Nigeria's economy is unpredictable, and the property market can sometimes fluctuate. Economic downturns, inflation, and changes in government policies can affect property values and rental demand. This uncertainty makes real estate investment in Nigeria riskier than in more stable markets.

3. High Costs of Acquisition
Buying property in Nigeria, especially in prime locations like Lagos, Abuja, or Port Harcourt, requires a significant upfront investment. Land and construction costs are high, and the process can be lengthy, especially with issues like verifying land titles or dealing with local agents.

4. Uncertainty About Returning Home
Not every Nigerian in the diaspora plans to return permanently. If you're uncertain about moving back or don't plan to visit regularly, the property may end up being more of a burden than an asset. Selling property in Nigeria can also take time, making it less liquid than other investments.

Conclusion:
Should Nigerians in the Diaspora Invest in Owning a House in Nigeria?

For many Nigerians in the diaspora, investing in a house in Nigeria offers emotional satisfaction, financial returns, and long-term security. It’s a great way to stay connected to your roots and plan for future retirement. However, challenges like property management, economic instability, and high initial costs can make it a risky venture if not properly planned.

Ultimately, whether you should invest in a house in Nigeria depends on your personal goals, financial situation, and future plans. If you have the right resources and are committed to maintaining your investment, owning a home in Nigeria could be a wise decision.

If you feel owning a home in Nigeria is the right decision for you, please reach out to me on 08101406120 to guide through the process with professional advice and a comprehensive due diligence process.

5 Strategies Low-Income Earners Can Use to Own Real Estate in Lagos, Nigeria

Owning real estate in Lagos, Nigeria, may seem like a far-fetched dream for low-income earners, but with the right strategies, it’s entirely possible. Lagos, the commercial hub of Nigeria, offers a variety of real estate opportunities that cater to different income levels. If you're a low-income earner looking to invest in property, here are five proven strategies to help you own real estate in Lagos.

1. Consider Off-Plan Properties for Affordable Entry
One of the most effective ways to invest in real estate in Lagos as a low-income earner is through off-plan properties. Off-plan properties are those sold before they are fully constructed. Developers offer these at lower prices to attract buyers early. As construction progresses, the value of the property typically increases, giving you an opportunity for capital appreciation.

Benefits of off-plan properties:
a. Lower purchase price.
b. Flexible payment plans.
c. Potential for high return on investment (ROI) when completed.
d. Some developers in Lagos even allow installment payments spread over 12 to 24 months, making it easier for low-income earners to afford.

2. Leverage Cooperative Societies and Real Estate Syndicates
Many low-income earners in Lagos have become property owners through cooperative societies and real estate syndicates. These organizations allow members to pool their resources together to buy land or property. By contributing small amounts consistently, you can eventually buy real estate in strategic locations.

Advantages of cooperative societies:
a. Lower individual financial commitment.
b. Structured savings plans that enforce discipline.
c. Access to exclusive property deals at discounted rates.

Joining a trusted real estate cooperative society is an excellent way for low-income earners to acquire property without the burden of making large upfront payments.

3. Explore Land Banking in Emerging Areas
Another smart strategy for low-income earners is to engage in land banking in emerging areas of Lagos, such as Epe, Ikorodu, and Ibeju Lekki. These locations are relatively affordable now but are expected to experience significant growth in the near future due to ongoing infrastructure developments.

Why land banking works:
a. Lands in these areas are much cheaper compared to more developed areas like Lekki and Victoria Island.
b. Over time, as these areas develop, the value of the land will appreciate, providing a great return on investment.

For instance, Ibeju Lekki, where the Dangote Refinery and Lekki Free Trade Zone are located, is set to become a major industrial hub, making it a hotspot for real estate investment.

4. Utilize Government Housing Schemes
The Lagos State Government offers housing schemes aimed at making homeownership easier for low-income earners. These schemes are part of the Lagos State Home Ownership Mortgage Scheme (Lagos HOMS), which provides affordable housing options with low-interest mortgage loans.

Key features of government housing schemes:
a. Affordable homes targeted at low- and middle-income earners.
b. Flexible repayment plans that allow you to spread payments over many years.
c. The opportunity to own a home without the stress of hefty initial deposits.

If you're a low-income earner, regularly check for government-backed housing schemes and take advantage of them to own property in Lagos.

5. Negotiate Flexible Payment Plans with Developers
Some real estate developers in Lagos offer flexible payment plans to accommodate low-income earners. These payment plans allow you to pay for your property in installments, sometimes over several years, without straining your finances.

What to look for:
a. Payment plans that offer up to 24 or 36 months to complete payment.
b. Low initial deposits (as low as 20% in some cases).
c. No-interest payment plans or minimal interest charges.

By negotiating with developers, low-income earners can get access to affordable housing without having to make large one-time payments.

Conclusion
Owning real estate in Lagos as a low-income earner is challenging but not impossible. By taking advantage of off-plan properties, joining cooperative societies, considering land banking in emerging areas, exploring government housing schemes, and negotiating flexible payment plans with developers, you can start your journey towards property ownership. With the right strategy and a bit of patience, you’ll be able to own real estate in Lagos and secure your financial future.

For more information on how to get started with affordable real estate in Lagos, feel free to contact trusted real estate professionals, like Realtor Enoh at 08101406120 to guide you through the process.

Why Nigerians in the Diaspora Should Work with a Trusted Real Estate Advisor for Safe and Profitable Investments

For many Nigerians in the diaspora, investing in real estate in Nigeria might pose certain risks because they are physically unavailable and can only rely on the information of realtors, agents and real estate developers whose primary aim is to sell a land or property, without necessarily having your best interest in mind.

Furthermore, the Nigerian real estate market is known for its complexities, scams, and misinformation, with those living abroad being a vulnerable target. To successfully combat these challenges, it is essential to work with a real estate advisor, who can also help you conduct unbiased due diligence and proper investigation before you part with your huge capital.

This article explores why Nigerians in the diaspora should prioritize working with a trusted neutral real estate advisor who can guide them through every step of the investment process, ensuring safe and profitable returns.

1. Avoiding Real Estate Scams in Nigeria
One of the biggest concerns for Nigerians in the diaspora is the prevalence of fraudulent real estate deals. Many investors have fallen victim to scammers who sell fake properties, disputed lands, or properties without the proper documentation. This is especially problematic for those not physically present to verify details.

A reputable real estate advisor serves as your eyes and ears on the ground, conducting thorough due diligence to verify property ownership, land titles, and all necessary legal documents. This minimizes the risk of fraud and ensures that you are investing in properties that are legally sound and free from disputes.

2. Local Market Expertise for Better Investment Decisions
Understanding the unique characteristics of the Nigerian property market is crucial for making smart investment decisions. Whether you are looking to buy land in Lagos, off-plan properties, or secure a luxury home, you need someone who knows the market trends, government regulations, and development projects.

A skilled real estate consultant can provide insights into emerging investment opportunities, high-growth areas, and regions with strong potential for property value appreciation. By working with a local advisor, you can access strategic investment advice that matches your long-term financial goals.

3. Tailored Real Estate Investment Strategies
Each real estate investor has unique goals, be it for building a portfolio for passive income, buying a family home in Nigeria, or investing in land for future development. A qualified real estate advisor helps create a personalized investment strategy based on your specific needs, financial objectives, and risk tolerance.

For Nigerians in the diaspora, having someone who understands your goals and tailors their advice accordingly ensures that you’re investing in the right property for the right reasons. You might want to invest in the Nigerian real estate market for land banking, acquiring rental properties, or buying a luxury apartment in Lagos and depending on your goal, you will be assisted on the best possible route to achieve your financial and investment plans.

4. Streamlined Real Estate Transactions Despite the Distance
Investing in Nigerian real estate from abroad can be a complicated process due to the need for document verification, price negotiation, and legal compliance. This is where a trusted real estate advisor steps in, managing the entire process on your behalf. They handle everything from property inspections and legal paperwork to liaising with sellers or developers, ensuring that your investment is smooth and hassle-free.

For Nigerians in the diaspora, this level of support is invaluable. With a real estate consultant managing your investment, you don’t have to worry about delays, miscommunication, or hidden issues.

5. Peace of Mind for Diaspora Investors
When you work with a professional real estate advisor who truly has your best interests in mind, you gain peace of mind. You can trust that they are handling your transaction with transparency and accountability, ensuring that every step of the process is legitimate and secure. This peace of mind is especially important when you’re investing significant sums from abroad, as it eliminates the stress and uncertainty associated with making such a major financial decision from a distance.

Your advisor isn't there to convince you to buy a land or property but to help you scan through and recommend the best option that fits your goals or even, recommend a totally different asset if real estate isn't the best vehicle for you, recommend a different location and give unbiased facts about the pros and cons of a real estate investment you are about to make.

6. Access to Exclusive Real Estate Opportunities
Real estate advisors who are deeply embedded in the Nigerian property market often have access to exclusive deals, such as off-market properties or early-stage developments. By working with them, you gain access to these opportunities before they become widely available, which can mean better prices, higher appreciation potential, and a better return on investment.

For Nigerians in the diaspora, this exclusive access can be a game-changer, especially when looking to invest in high-growth areas like Lekki, Ajah, or Ibeju Lekki.

7. Compliance with Nigerian Real Estate Laws
The legal complexities of the Nigerian real estate market can be difficult to understand, especially for those unfamiliar with local laws. Issues related to property titles, land use regulations, and zoning can quickly derail an investment. An experienced real estate advisor ensures that you comply with all legal requirements, guiding you through title verification, the signing of the Deed of Assignment, obtaining a Certificate of Occupancy (C of O), or going through the process of acquiring Governor's Consent.

This legal expertise prevents costly mistakes and ensures that your investment is fully secure from a legal standpoint.

8. Building Long-Term Real Estate Wealth and Planning your Exit Strategy
When you buy a land or property, you usually have an end goal in mind, which could be to resell at a later period for capital appreciation or to lease/rent out your building either for commercial or residential uses.

A good advisor will be there for the long haul, assisting you with property management, resale, or expanding your property portfolio.

Conclusion: Invest with Confidence, Invest with a Lagos Real Estate Advisor

For Nigerians in the diaspora, investing in Nigerian real estate is a great way to build wealth, secure a future home, and maintain ties to the country. However, the process can be filled with risks and challenges. By partnering with a real estate advisor who prioritizes your best interests, and not just selling to you, you can confidently navigate these challenges.

An experienced advisor offers local market expertise, protects you from scams, ensures legal compliance, and provides peace of mind throughout the process.

Don’t leave your investments to chance. Work with a reliable real estate consultant who understands the Nigerian market and has your best interests in mind. Call or Chat Enoh Umukoro, a Lagos Real Estate Advisor on 08101406120 and start your real estate investment journey with confidence today!
