Caveat emptor. A property developer name starting with M has started advertising service plots in Sango Tedo Ibeju Lekki. Please beware. Don't buy fraudulently acquired land. A word for the wise. |

motoman: @delafrota and @arcview: if you read Lawyer's post properly, you would see he has not completely condemed the buying of Lands said to be under processing, but rather he has said we should be weary and apply more caution when told that story. He has even gone an extra mile to give us a template of questions we should as, which in the end will strengthen or cancel our decision to purchase such land. Are you sure your land is in Beechwood Estate or around Beechwood Estate? Beechwood has a valid document (C of O since 2004) and people are securing Governor's Consent and are building. I think you have been scammed if the land is inside Beechwood. |

...Interesting post yet again by Lawyer.... So thankful for your insights.... U probably won't know me....I know u well 'cos u've helped with avoiding several land mines in real estate transactions particularly lands.... What will shock u is how very educated and seemingly exposed folks are willing to scam another fella.... ...Be wary of those estates in Ibeju Lekki...I think that's the next bust in Lagos real estate... I believe so many folks are being scammed in that axis... For the Beechwood Estate guy... I'm so sure you've being scammed....that estate has a good title and ARM - the primary owner has a structured process for land sale et al.... If in doubt, ask folks who know...Lawyer is a listening ear...he will always talk to u if u call him.... 1 Like |

Dear Lawyer, Thanks for the write up. I am seriously considering buying a piece of land as i think its a way to invest esp the way the economy is going, one can never tell when it would come in handy. So, i was thinking of buying one within an estate as it would negate the omoinile wahala even though the price of the land might now be almost twice its original one because of this;however, i came across one company called Labrintos and they are selling off some plots at Safari Gardens and park estate at Akodo Ise Ibeju Lekki by Lacampagne Tropicana. Can you please confirm if 1. they are a good and reliable property company 2. the area in question will be a good buy or if it is a no go area 3. i plan to spread the payment over a few months, what documents should i look out for. Will be expecting your response to same. Many thanks. 1 Like |

DO YOU KNOW THAT 1. Buying a Land that is deemed to be “free” but it has no Certificate of Occupancy or Governors Consent or Gazette / Excision is a gamble? 2. Buying a Land with “Gazette in Process” and “Excision in View” or “File Numbers” is an unsecured investment? This is a commonly used scam / trick by real estate development companies in Lagos, Nigeria. 3. There are cases where fraudulent Sellers present cloned Certificate of Occupancy or Registered Titles, alongside fake or forged means of identification? 4. In a situation where a Property is owned by a Corporate Body incorporated or registered under the Companies and Allied Matters Act, Search at the Companies Registry is paramount? 5. Without a grant of probate and /or letters of administration, no Vendor or Seller [whether family members or otherwise] possesses the requisite authority to sell the estate or property of a deceased person? Hence Search at the Probate Registry is vital. 6. The consent of the principal members and head of the family or community to the sales transaction needs to be obtained so as not to make the sales transaction void or voidable? 7. If the Title of a Land is defective, whoever buys a House built on such a Land is merely a tenant at the mercy of the true Owner with a valid legal Title to the Land? The Legal Maxim: “quicquid plantatur solo, solo cedit” in very instructive. It simply means that whatever is affixed or planted to a land belongs to the land. 8. It is the duty of the Lawyer of the Buyer or Purchaser to prepare the Documents which includes: Contract of Sale; and Deed of Assignment; or Deed of Sub-Lease; or Deed of Conveyance; or Deed of Transfer; or Power of Attorney; as the case may be? The rationale for which the duty of preparation of the Documents is on the Lawyer of the Buyer or Purchaser flows from the right of the Buyer or Purchase to the non - reversionary interest of the property. 9. If there is litigation on a property, the Court may order that status quo be maintained and the person in possession would remain in possession? After making payments and executing Title Documents, a Buyer can take possession by: erecting a small fence, farming on the property, putting tenants on the property, putting a security person on the property, putting construction materials on the property, etc. 10. The Land Use Act prohibits alienation of Land without the consent of the Governor? 11. Failure to pay stamp duty renders a title document unacceptable for registration and inadmissible in evidence in a court of law? 12. Registration does not cure defects neither does it confer validity on the Instrument which it would not have otherwise had but for its registration? You need to know how to go about the process of buying and owning a Property in Nigeria. There are several Laws which govern and regulate the process. Hence, usually, it is time and capital intensive. On Property transactions, the legal maxim is apt: “Caveat Emptor” - Buyers Beware. It is not for a Seller to beware. A Buyer needs to exercise full caution and due diligence when buying a property. READ MORE https://www.nairaland.com/4136950/guide-how-buy-property-land |
