Missktinz:

In as much as I like the idea, I feel you need to take a step back and be realistic. I'm not being negative but on a more serious note, you need to have a more solid plan. Before anyone can be cajoled into investing 50million naira into a business, it's got to be solid. Few things to consider:

1. You have no mentions here of your business plan (A solid business plan not just something on pen and paper). How do you plan to proceed? what types of partnership are you open to? How much experience do you have in this field? If you are hoping to get 50million from me (assuming!), you need to show me that you have the capacity to handle a billion naira venture which means you should have handled a similar (not necessariliy billions, could be hundreds of thousands) projects successfully in the past.

2. What's in it for a would-be investor. If I were to partner with you, you definitely need to have something to offer. I would not invest 50million in a business where my partner only offers 1million naira. It doesn't have to be monetary, you just need to be able to put something on the table before we can qualify to be partners!

3. You mentioned you have a lawyer. How far with the legal procedures have you gone? Getting properties in Lagos is not small business. There are many issues to consider; Fraud, Legal battles etc. This is VERY VERY important in any properties business especially a "multi-billion naira" one at that.

4. How commercially viable is this land in question? Because it is located in Lekki does not mean it is! What is the ROI? Did a land surveyor verify that the land is actually worth the selling price?


I could go on and on, but just felt like sharing a bit of these with you. The thread caught my attention and personally I feel it's a fantastic plan if planned properly but, on the other hand, It could go deep down south if careful thoughts are not put into it. Dreams can become reality only if due diligence and proper efforts are put into them.

Once you have answers to these questions thought out carefully, then you can proceed to get investors.

Junapril:
As much as i dont want to derail this thread, i think its so nice for you to take out your time to bring out all this points of yours, funny thing is in few days to come you would have realised how far we have gone with this project and the stories i'm sharing now are the things that happened few months ago. We actually met so many people that raised EXACTLY the same questions of yours and even more. An old friend of mine who is a consultant, the M.D of Accenture also pointed out most of this points which made us address all these issues but in few days to come you will find answers to these questions.

Secondly, not that i have come to nairaland to actully come and seek for funds or advertise, i'm here to let my people understand and be part of this success story. I have been inspired by alot of people starting from SEUN OSEWA to SPYDER, IHEBROOKE, SKIMANSKI, CHEKITAUT, SEGCYMORE, AVENTURES, BRABUS, JARUS to mention a few of them. So, if you follow this thread, you will realise that most people that we approach are guys we have worked for in the past, and no doubt, if we did not deliver properly you dare not go back to them for any favour. As a matter of fact, a client of mine who is at a top position in SHELL first made me realise that if i could come up with an estate plan they will be willing to buy into it, that was as far back as 2011. So, i have a lot of clients that i have worked for and we share a cordial relationship.

Apart from individuals, which holds key positions in telecomunication industry, consultancy and oil and Gas companies i have worked as a contractor for alot of top Construction companies in Nigeria starting from COSTAIN WEST AFRICA, BRICK HOUSE CONSTRUCTION (that builds almost all protea hotel in Nigeria) CONTEMPORARY GROUP (the consultant at the Delta state international airport, built Nigerian Law School at Enugu and presently renovating all Globacom offices in Nigeria). I have Clients in Mobil, Shell, Cheveron, Total, oando as a matter of fact a lady at Oando is one of our Directors.

We will also like to welcome as much people as possible but it has to be strictly serious minded individuals,so dont feel offended if i'm quite reluctant to answer some requests. We have a business plan prepared by one of the most recognised individual in the prestigious LAGOS BUSINESS SCHOOL and works for top shots like Professor PAT UTOMI tailored in line with our dreams and direction as a company and also an Investment proposal which was prepared by us and reflects all issues as far as this project is concerned. So, if you get to see the the proposal, then you would realise how far we have gone.
You can call 08029522058 or email;NSPDLTD@gmail.com. We would know where to go grom there. Thank you and God Bless.

kopell: @junapril, May I ask where is the exact location on monotesy Rd do you and your partners have these estate. I have a lot of queastion about hundred of acre of land own by omonile around that area. I new these because I and my partners as similar project in the say location which we where issued allocation letter since 2008 and paid all fees over 70millon for the multiple agency's that where involve in the prosidure of govement PPP program, mind you those fees where paid
Since 2010. We still waiting to be issued our globa C of O. Am in Lagos 3weeks ago on the same matter, on that same location. To my believe the only person that as that large land
At location is OBA of Lagos OBA AKINOLU, and him self do not have hundreds of acres I believe he as about 20 acre or less. More to come later.
