You are spot on!

I tire for Nigerian Landlords. Always discriminating without thinking out of the box about other use cases.

In a civilised country, once you get rent, even if you like sit at home and loaf, as long as you're paying rent on time and you're not a problem to the neighbourhood/society or in trouble with the law/police, who gives a damn what you do with your time or whether you have a child or you're married?

Is the landlord your parent or are we back in a boarding school or secondary school hostel again? Some will even add tribal discrimination.

E.g. "I want only working class Igbo or Delta single woman without children. Preferably a banker who leaves home early and comes home late".

That is utter nonsense. Property searches are difficult enough in Lagos without people complicating things with inanity.

Your points are strong and well noted, but you must learn to be civil and not throw condescending words at people you hardly know. The above requirements by the OP, I suspect, are predicated on some things, one of which is the size of the apartment as clearly written. I think a poster above made reference to that, which is a sensible deduction in my view.

The civilized environment such as the western countries you may be talking about, some of us have faced worse conditions there. You don't want to hear my personal stories with getting accommodation outside the shores of Nigeria. Meanwhile, in my experience in Nigeria, many sit-at-home people can be dangerous. Many of them are only time bomb waiting to explode. I don't expect this statement to be agreed with, but it's a fact I have seen.

I do not blame landlords who try to minimize the possibility of getting criminals and trouble makers as tenants. Where I have issues is tribalism and religious discrimination...But again, some landlords do these out of experience. I agree that experiences cannot be generalized to all people across board, but the landlords still have to protect themselves in every way possible.

And how exactly have I been uncivil towards the OP? Can you show where I have been discourteous?

I was Replying AreaFada2 and talking about landlords in general based on my own experience house-hunting, that's all. SUCH a statement as the one I referred to, is indeed inane and that cannot be downplayed in any way as an uncivil statement.

Meanwhile the fact that you faced challenges due to racism and/or xenophobia in a foreign country does not in any way mean that the same nonsense should not be criticised in Nigeria! And at least in a civilised nation you can report such landlords to the appropriate authorities whereas all we can do in Nigeria is rant. So please you should let us rant freely about where the shoes hurt.

Your points about Nigerian tenants sound valid but last I checked, it's not the landlords duty to do law enforcement, although I partly agree that it is the landlord's prerogative to do background checks if he so desires. Making choices based on perception of who is a trouble-free tenant based on work hours - especially in Nigeria where anyone can "form activity" and step out all day - is a joke. The world is way flatter than that today, what with virtual offices and all.

I have a friend who's a freelance programmer and as such works at home, and he has problems with his landlord cos "he's always at home pressing computer like a yahoo boy" and he's been given a quit notice. If that isn't folly spewed by a self-acclaimed educated landlord, then I'll like to know what it is.

@meiloya:

And now, about the OP and your rationale about space constraints. My point still stands: if the tenant is not a criminal or person of questionable character in any way; and he/she decides to rent space with a small bedroom and small sitting room knowing fully well that he/she has a spouse, BUT that is what they can manage and afford at the time, how exactly is it still the role of the landlord to say "I won't take a married person"? He does not have such a right to discriminate against their choice if they have willingly chosen a small space to live in, for reasons best known to themselves.

Somehow I get the vibes that it's the same person as the OP but I'm not even here like that.

I wish the OP a closed deal ASAP.

I hope you're not trying to correct what I didn't even imply in the first place. If so, you may have to try and reread the statement that necessitated anything foreign and why I made such statement.

Home or abroad, landlords choose what they want and reject what they don't want, it's that simple. Very quick to jump to racism and/or xenophobi which was never mentioned in my most, so I really don't know what you're referring to here, definitely not my previous post.

Everything does not boil down to racism or whatnot. There are Nigerians who own homes abroad and rent these places to people, and my submission did not even posit that some certain oyinbo people denied me a house. Still wondering hard where racism was mentioned or implied that necessitated the referral.

All these issues of civilized nation this and that that I keep reading on forums. In a civilized nation, one does not teach house owners how to run their houses or report them to one big brother who will discipline them if they don't rent out their houses. I don't want to try and water down other points you raised, but please if you want to call out my points, do so on what is implied from my posts. Not sure that is hard to achieve.

Finally, yes, I remain the poster! It's a no-brainer realizing. The mod banned the first handle for suspected spamming, I suspect. I then used the other one to get my clients. Thankfully, loads of people satisfying my criteria have been calling. May have to cherry-pick.

The house still available, keep the calls coming!

Be in touch.

@meiloya:

I find you a very mercurial person.

You say "The civilized environment such as the western countries you may be talking about, some of us have faced worse conditions there. You don't want to hear my personal stories with getting accommodation outside the shores of Nigeria" and then you return now to say (words mine) "Oh I might have been referring to Nigerian landlords outside Nigeria, so I never mentioned racism or xenophobia." Really. And I was expected to know that, when you didn't say so?

I assumed you were referring to xenophobia outside the shores of your country, which is of course akin to the tribalism issues raised here within your country. In any case, if you did not want your post to be misunderstood you should have been clearer. That is definitely not so hard for you to achieve.

If you had something to say on my other points and/or if you had the time and cared, you'd have replied. So I take it that you don't have anything worthwhile to say in defence of your points and/or you don't have the time or you don't care. In any case, my points are there for future reference. Some landlords indeed have inane conditions for prospecting for their tenants.

You are quick to say "there is no big brother to report housing discrimination to" and I'm sure when I reply now stating that I personally KNOW that housing discrimination is illegal in the US and cases can be reported (see www.hud.gov/fairhousing) you might reply saying "I was talking about civilised societies like North Korea and Singapore. Why did you assume that I wasn't?".

Further more, you said (your words) "The above requirements by the OP, I suspect..." (thus indicating that you're someone else) and when I showed you up, you returned to say it's a no-brainer to realize you're the OP. Really?!! If you can't see that this is another example of being mercurial - and deliberately setting out to beguile the reader, like I earlier said, then never mind.

Please.

Please.

I understand, you were not expected to know that. I agree not everyone has a broad analytical mind. But, if you must comment, you should have commented based on the broadness of the statement and not confine the statement to mere binary. Assumptions can be really weak when a premise is not fully understood. All I wanted to clarify, which I believe I have done, judging from what I have just read above, is that you do not make assumptions or draw conclusions when the premise is not well-understood.

Thanks for the compliments. Yes, I can be very mercurial.

Again, it's weak argument to part-quote statements and try to create a counter example when a statement involving 'any or all or every' has not even been made in the first place. Counter examples are used to nullify absolute statements, and statements preceding with 'a' do not qualify as absolutes. Nonetheless, the example of the US is clear, but there must be a verifiable evidence before any claims can hold water.

All previous lines and even words can be quoted, but it remains a no-brainer digging up the OP's usernames. Simple nairaland search establishes the required equivalence. Beguile, no, ultimate intention is not to come out here to swindle anyone. This is assuming the meanings of the words no brainer and beguile are well-roundedly understood.

If it's so important, a simple conversation with the clients (whose usernames and emails can easily be provided on request) can reveal a whole lot about the ultimate intention.

At the end of the day, a landlord decides whom to rent his/her apartment to. Painful, yes, frustrating, yes, but that's the reality. Sorry.

Finally, this conversation is really, really fruitless to me as it does not contribute to what I want to achieve. As such, any response outside of 'I want to come and see these apartments you have been advertising', will be deliberately ignored.
