Ok. Been looking for an apt around mainland Lagos for the past one week. I have the money to pay for a good house but its hard as almost all landlords are asking for a coporate client. I run my own business and employ people in my office but cant seem to get an apt cos m a business man.

I dnt really get the idea in this. I remember in d past 4months, i got a call from a landlord asking if one of my employees work in my office. I said yes. But now I who own the office cant get an apartment cos they want coporate Igbo, Yoruba Banker ,Hausa oil worker or Efik Lawyer.

Its getting really hard for any business man or woman to rent a house in Lagos!! Goodluck if you happen to be an Igbo Trader-real goodluck to you

I feel you.
Been through that road before. They always assume those corporate tenants have a steady income unlike the business man.
whereas when we are paying the full rent, the so called corporate bankers are splitting their rent into 3 installments.

Its all about the landlord. A business experienced landlord/lady will not do such.
