Calabar (virgin Land)

@jino,

Buying land is about who you know.I bought plots of land at the Parliamentary Village and Ikot Ishie for N450k (in 2006) whats the big deal there.My friend is the secretary of the Ikot Ishie Council and sells the land to whom he wants to.

My business partner is about to introduce me to the new Ntoe of Big Qua Town with a view of picking up some plots from him at Akim  Qua (Unical). If you are going to venture into Real Estate development in Calabar then you have to have contacts and acquainatances in the pudding. My pal was the secretary of Calabar South LG Council and we are negotaiting for some development plots in the area at good prices.

My Lawyer has lots of affordable land for sale (acquired in lieu of Legal fee's from clients who couldnt pay). I have ex-colleagues in the Land Registry Dept who will tip you of any new devt.or unencumbered land deals. From the outside it looks as if one can not get affordable land to buy in Calabar but when you are serious on taking steps and meet those "in-the-know" then doors surely open, Jino,I have been to Calabar recently and all the good things are going to those people who have the money.

i must confess this particular area of nairalanders is sooooooooo interesting,this is my first time here.
i have critically read all d views about the calabar thing and i must say you are all rait.
what is d criteria for a virgin land?
2.How do you maximise.
I have always bn of d opinion that calabar is such a dulling place,why?no industries,no cinemas in terms of entertainment.etc it really calls for a quick initiative.
I'm presently serving with an architectual firm in charge of the Tinapa project.we have moved from the construction stage to operations and believe me it aint easy.
all d client(Tinapa business resort limited) craves for now is investors,but i think its a symbiotic thing.
Is the tinapa dream going to stay alive?i think we all can answer that.rait now it feels like there is no market,2mro ther wd be.
let me start from the shopping malls which i think mait b of great interest to a lot.

especially londoncool,you have a great appetite 4 biz,shops are still available if u want one. and i want you to look beyond d now.the project is a long term investment.it really mait not b a bad idea.if you nid any info please do not hesitate to contact me on my e-mail addy-dopexy05@yahoo.com
