How To Identify, Check Fake Estate Developers In Nigeria

Here are some simple but powerful ways you can detect a fake real estate company in Lagos:

Legal registration

Before using a real estate company for your real estate investment, you need to carry out a thorough research on the company to find out

if the company is duly registered with Nigeria CAC (Corporate Affairs Commission).

If you find out that the company is registered, you need to check if they have the license to operate as a Real Estate company.

Some of the bodies responsible for giving out license to Real Estate companies include

Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), Estate Surveyors and Valuers Registration Board of Nigeria (ESVARBON), among others..

Document verification and authentication

There are also a lot of required documents to be ascertained and verified before you proceed to make payment.

Bank Account Details:

The account details of the real estate company must bear the official name of the real estate company.

And. If the one they give is not an official account, it's a red flag

Payment plan not detailed.

If you did not see any detailed payment plan on the application form, it's a red flag

Communication

All related communications must be conveyed through the company’s registered communication points.

Ensure that your email communication is being conveyed through the company/brand name.

Standard office

Most fake real estate company do not have a standard and conducive office.

Ensure that you engage most of your related communications in the company’s office.

Avoid meeting with an agent in a restaurant and fun places

Inspection must be carried out by the real estate company Vehicles

Ensure you go to the real estate companies office and from their you proceed to the site for inspection.

Never go by yourself for inspection or with an agent.

NEVER!!!

I hope this helps someone

Tips To Keep Your Plots Safe From Illegal Occupation

Property-related frauds aren’t uncommon in Lagos in fact, Nigeria at large

In this article, I will discuss how buyers can prevent themselves from becoming victims of land-related frauds.

Get a boundary wall constructed:

This should be the first thing to do, so aas to prevent any story that will not have a happy ending
An unattended open and unprotected land bring attention of the land grabbers popularly called "Omo nile". To keep them far off, simply construct a boundary wall. Then a sign on the gate or wall indicating the real owners

Make sure you have all the necessary documents:

Document of the land, will proof the owner of the land. All necessary documents should be paid for promptly. Ensure you have all this ready

Keep a caretaker inside

Try as much as possible to get hired hands to be leaving on the land. And also, make unannounced visits to the land. And also, ask your friends and relatives to do this for you, These visits would give the neighbours an idea about the real owner.

Seek your neighbour’s help:

If the plot is in an already inhabited area, become friends with your neighbours and request them to monitor your land— even if you have hired a caretaker. Informal as it is, this is quite an effective strategy to keep your immovable asset safe

Be quick to report

And lastly,be quick to report any form of intruder. If you see any sign of red flag, go to the police immediately, let the law handle the case, try as much as possible to avoid confrontation with the intruder

Let's hear from your thoughts on this, hope someone finds value

Last night, I took a taxi home after taking a client for inspection
On the way back, I sat in front, so me and the driver started chatting

the driver started asking me questions.
Driver: Where are you from?
Me: Abia State
Driver: What are you doing in lagos?
Me: I run a digital marketing business
Driver: That stuff actually works?
Me: Yes
Driver: What's the secret?
My answer: Just give.
Beyond all the knowledge and the trainings, the one thing that has brought me more clients than I could ever dream of was giving.
But here's the catch, you have the accept that it's not direct.
You may give 200% value to someone during a sales call and they won't buy.

You may post quality content on your timeline or even in a group, they will not comment
You may share your deepest insights through your content and nobody responds.
But trust me,
It all comes back.
If you keep giving, you'll wake up one day to a random message from someone saying they would like to go for inspection
Or a client will refer you to 3 people ready to buy.
Things just happen like that.
The universe has a perfect accounting system.
So never stop giving to others, the fruits of your labour will come guaranteed.

It's not by your might or power. Is by the grace oof God.

Is not of him that runneth or him that willeth

But of God that showeth mercy.

She Will Drop Her Pants Once She Knows That You Bought A Piece Of That Land Beside The Dangote Refinery

Location, location, location" is a common mantra in real estate.

Take it or leave it, this is a quality advice but the sad part is

So many folks don't know the huge benefits it comes with.

I remember Adagoke, a banker with one of the new generation banks.

Fews months ago, was in need of a land he could build her home.

So we talked, went for inspection

while we breezed through the Dangote Refinery in Ibeju-Lekki, he was amazed

How development has got on real fast,. In the area.

He noticed the accessibility, appearance, and amenities

In the area like banks, health centers in the neighborhood as well as plans for development.

And top quality schools in the neighborhood have started springing up.

Adegoke was actually the one going for the inspection but he was the one seeing

All the development himself, he was was not told about it.

When he called his fiancee, he put it on speaker,

What she said next shocked me

"She Will Drop Her Pants Once She Knows That Adegoke Bought A Piece Of That Land Beside The Almighty Dangote Refinery"

Adegoke could not stop laughing 😁

Fast forward, he was impressed with what he saw, after we came back from the inspection.

The next month, he got himself 2 plots

What is the moral here:

Location isn't entirely subjective—in fact, it's based on a fairly static set of criteria.

When you set out to shop for a land, make sure the neighborhood isn't just desirable to you

but has objective qualities, such as attractive amenities, safe streets, and good schools,

that will help ensure your investment appreciates in value over time.

Factors That Determine Price Of lands

Land is an important asset and investment in land or plots, is known to be lucrative as it assures better appreciation and offers higher long-term returns for investors.

The value of land has increased manifold in the last 20 years. So, for anyone who is considering investment in plots, it is essential to understand the major factors that impact land pricing.

Location

Location is a crucial factor which determines the price of land. the kind of development that takes place affects the price of land in that area.

Take for instance, Ibeju Lekki area, is one of the hottest area now for anyone that wants to acquire land, We have the Dangote Refinery, the Free Trade Zone, Power Oil Production Plant, Indomie Production Plant, The Lekki International Airport, The Deep Sea Port.

Topography

For instance, land with weak soil or rocky terrain, will be unable to support the structures and thus, will be less preferred

Demand for land

Property prices in prime locations of any city are higher than prices in the suburbs since such prime areas are equipped with all facilities and thus, attract investors and buyers. Similarly, land parcels in city outskirts, are available in plenty and are more reasonably priced.

Present and future land use

Land value is also fixed by the land use permitted in the land premises. This is also a crucial factor for land pricing. Usually, industrial or institutional land use attracts higher prices.

Close Proximity

Lands closer to urban areas tend to be more priced than land closer to the hinterlands.

I encourage you to take your time to go through this write.

You will learn one or two ideas.

If you agree, let's hear your opinion in the comments section.

Thank you.

Well, it’s not a hype… the value of Ibeju Lekki is rapidly appreciating which makes it a haven for investors and developers.

In fact, if you missed out on investing in owning a property at Ikoyi or Victoria Island in the early days, then you don’t want to miss out on Ibeju Lekki.

Experts predict that in the next 10 to 15 years, a plot of land will be sold for as much as 450 million naira.

Ibeju Lekki is a budding commercial hub with ongoing projects including the Lekki Free Trade Zone, Dangote Refinery, deep sea port amongst others.

The area also has a lovely landscape with proximity to the ocean, and serene environment.

All of these qualities makes Ibeju Lekki a prime location for both residential, commercial, and investment purposes.

This new crème de la crème neighbourhood of Lagos is the savvy real estate investors dream because it’s capable of generating good return on investment… which helps you enjoy the financial security you desire.

Follow closely as we take a deep dive into the benefits of investing in a prime location like Ibeju Lekki.

Major Reasons Why You Should Invest In Ibeju Lekki In 2021

1. INDUSTRIALIZATION

The concentration of multi-billion dollar industrial projects in Ibeju Lekki accounts for its vast and significant development. And these level of development is triggering an appreciation in the value of real estate in the Ibeju Lekki area.

While the value of real estate continues rising.

Ibeju Lekki currently houses multibillion-dollar investment projects like the Dangote refinery (the biggest refinery in Africa and 6th in the world), a $12 billion project operating in the environs of Ibeju Lekki; Lekki deep seaport – a $1.65 billion project, Lekki – Epe international airport, Lagos Dubai smart city, Prestigious beach resorts, Lekki golf course and over 100 developing estates, as well and other international projects set to operate.

But what does that actually mean for landowners in Ibeju Lekki?

How does it affect the value of their land and their profit potential?

These are probably some of the questions running through your mind.

Here’s a befitting answer…

These aforementioned international projects and multi-billion dollar projects in the Ibeju Lekki locality, not only increases its industrial development… it’s also attracting infrastructural development.

The combination of these factors is attracting people to Ibeju Lekki and we’ll attract even more residents to the area once these mega industrial projects are completed soon.

Talk about an excellent opportunity to enjoy passive rental income on your property in Ibeju-Lekki, or even capital gains, if you decide to buy good portions of land to keep and sell at a higher price when the boom kicks in.

As a result, landowners make more money over time.

This brings us to the next reason why you should be investing in Ibeju Lekki; follow closely.

2. APPRECIATION

Properties in fast-developing locations like Ibeju Lekki are known for frequent spikes in their prices. Now, this may sound like bad news, however, it is good news for smart investors that invest in those properties when they were still cheap and affordable.

As at 2001, a plot of land in Lekki was sold below 7 million, but today, you can’t get it lower than 150 million.

Imagine you purchased the land when it was below 7million in 2001, you would have made over 100% profit in addition to your investment.

For Ibeju Lekki also, history is about to repeat itself again… and you can acquire it today, and enjoy up to 100% profit or more on your investment in as little as 2 years.
What smart investors don’t do is ignore good investment opportunities while watching others seize the opportunity and make millions out of it.

3. INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT
Sit back and look around Lagos, and observe the availability of infrastructures like efficient hospitals, standard schools, and other facilities in different locations.

Now compare the availability of all these infrastructures across Lagos. What you would discover is that certain locations have a concentration of infrastructures while some have some or none at all.

Ibeju Lekki is one of those locations that’s getting serious attention from the government as regards infrastructural development.

And that shouldn’t come as a surprise when you consider the level of private and government investment in industrial projects in Ibeju Lekki.

In a nut-shell Ibeju Lekki and its environs is beginning to get the government’s attention because it’s perceived as a very viable location to contribute significantly to the nation’s GDP. And this further drives the value of properties in this area upwards faster than most people can imagine.

4. STABILITY OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT
With the fragile state of the economy, it is expedient to be financially secured and prepared as an entrepreneur, individual and investor. The best move for a smart investor or entrepreneur to be financially secured in spite of the predicted economic recession is to invest in reliable and sustainable investment vehicles that have low volatility.

And real estate is renowned for its low risk and low volatility… which is why savvy investors diversify their investment portfolio by investing in real estate especially in locations with good profit potential like Ibeju Lekki.

Conclusion

Don’t just watch as others create wealth with real estate investment in Ibeju Lekki… take the step to becoming a smart investor today and invest in Real estate

Hope this helps

The Major Benefits of Real Estate

The benefits of investing in real estate are many, from creating situations where your profit potential is up to you, to building a lifestyle some people only dream of. With real estate, you can:

• Own your own Business

Work part-time or full-time, be your own boss, and time things according to your schedule and goals.

• Take advantage of appreciation Real estate

typically appreciates around four to five percent annually. This appreciation rate takes place as part of natural market growth, essentially, without you doing anything.

To illustrate, consider homeowners who purchased, their homes 20 years ago and now find themselves, with N200,000,000 in equity in their homes at ikoyi lagos, something they never thought about at the time they purchased the home.

• Generate Positive Cash flow you Can use

Some investors will buy house/houses to rent it out, and create positive monthly cash flow.

Another way to buy and hold property is to lease it to someone else with an option for them to purchase it.

• Create a edge against inflation

Even in times of inflation, opportunities abound with real estate. Inflation forces higher real estate prices (while some other investments may not survive economic downturns).

*Understanding Land Titles In Nigeria*
ABOUT LAND TITLES

*A Gazette* is an Official record book where all special government details are spelt out, detailed & recorded.

A *gazette* will show the communities or villages that have been granted *excision* and the number of acres or hectares of land that the government has given to them.
It is within those *excised* acres or hectares that the traditional family is entitled to sell its lands to the public & not anything outside those hectares of land given or *excised* to them.

*Question:* Is excision as good as obtaining c of o?
Is a person having excision still mandated to obtain c of o?

*Answer:* After a land has been excised & Gazetted, then you can either process your C of O or Governor consent.

*Excision* does not expire while C of O expire after 99 years.
The only advantage C of O has over Excision is that, it can be use as collateral for getting loan in the bank

*DEED OF CONVEYANCE*

*Deed of Conveyance* or Registered Conveyance was the authentic evidence of ownership until 1978 Land use Act that introduced Certificate of Occupancy.

Deed of Conveyance is old legal document used in transferring the interest of the owner of a landed property interest to the person to another whom it is assigned, the assignee.
When ownership is transferred, the new legal document in use now is called deed of assignment.

*CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY*

A Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) issued by the Lagos State Government officially leased Lagos land to you, the applicant, for 99 yrs.
*All lands belong to the Government.*

*GOVERNOR'S CONSENT*

A governor’s consent can only be processed on a land with either Gazette or an Existing Certificate of Occupancy (C of O).

If a person with land with C of O decides to sell his land, the only documents that can give the new buyer or every other subsequent buyers the right of occupancy or ownership is a governor’s consent.
The powers of the Governor to consent to such transactions can be found in Section 22 of the Land Use Act of 1978 which states thus:
*'It shall not be lawful for the holder of a statutory right of occupancy granted by the governor to alienate his right of occupancy or any part thereof by assignment, mortgage, transfer of possession, sublease or otherwise howsoever without the consent of the Governor first had and obtained''*
This simply means therefore that even when a buyer has secured a land with a Certificate of Occupancy, he shouldn't stop there.
He needs to begin the process of obtaining a Governor's consent to make that purchase legal in the eyes of the government & be rest assured his land is safe.

*DEED OF ASSIGNMENTS*

Most people have the title documents to their cars intact & in safe places but fail to ask for the Deed of assignment to their properties which is several times more valuable than cars

*A Deed of assignment* is one of the transactional document drawn up by a real estate attorney between the current title holder for a particular property & the new buyer.

In real property transactions, a deed of assignment is a legal document that transfers the interest of the owner of that interest to the person to whom it is assigned, *the assignee.*
When ownership is transferred, the deed of assignment shows the new legal owner of the property.

The deed contains very pertinent information for a real estate transaction. It spells out the date when the ownership of the property transfers from one owner to the other.
The deed also gives a specific description of the property that is included in the transfer of ownership.

It is very compulsory & mandatory for a Deed of Assignment document to be recorded at the appropriate land registry to show legal evidence as to the exchange of ownership in any land/landed property transaction in order to make the general public and government aware of such exchange or transaction.

*Question:* How long does it usually take on average for a land to be fully excised?

*Answer:* Excision is given by the Governor of the state & there is no specific time for issuance of Excision. Sometimes, excision can be delay due to political reason.

Once a C of O had been issued on a particular land, it's takes 99 years before it can expire after which it can be renewed.
You can not process C of O on land that already has C of O.

C of O is C of O everywhere. When they said *Global,* it means the C of O in questions covers a very large expanse of land.

*Question:* How long does it usually take on average for a land to be fully excised?

*Answer:* Excision is given by the govenor of the state and there is no specific time for issuance of Excision. Sometimes excision can be delay due to political reason.

*Question:* Does this mean that *"Lands has to at least be excised before it can be sold or transferred to someone else" ?*

*Answer:* You become rightful owner of the land once the government released it to you via excision.

Though Governments recognise ancestral land ownership as excision is the right of the indigenous land owners.

UNDERSTANDING HOUSING UNITS.

I have over the time realized that many people, especially "would-be” investors in home and housing properties, are confused or do not really understand certain terms and terminologies in this type of real estate. And this confusion often affect their purchasing or investment decisions. Some do not even know that, FLAT and APARTMENT are different words that carry the same meaning. For instance, if I say, “2 bedroom apartment”. And also say, “2 bedroom flat". I'm referring to the same thing. The only difference here is, while “FLAT" is British English usage. APARTMENT is North American English usage.

It is on this premise, I have taken it upon myself to educate and enlighten you, my lovely friends and fans, on a few Terminologies associated with buying a House or Housing Units.

1. EN-SUITE
This is simply an apartment or house where all the bedrooms has its own toilet and bathroom.

2. DETACHED
E.g. A detached Duplex. This is a stand alone duplex in a compound.

3. SEMI-DETACHED
E.g. A semidetached Duplex. This is a twin duplex but the duplex are seperated by a fence.( i.e is a house that is joined to another house on one side by a shared wall).

4. TERRACE
This comes in form of multiple apartments in the same compound.

5. BUNGALOW
A Bungalow is a stand alone flat. It could be 1 bedroom bungalow, 2 bedroom bungalow, 3 bedroom bungalow...
