EgunMogaji: We have personally been looking in the area in the last 3 years and the cheapest we found that is not swampy is 7m. The one in front of me is looking for 12m cos he is in front of a road. Even 2 plots in aiyetoro sold for 10m last month. |

With tenants anywhere you have to have both an application form and signed agreement. By the time you are proceeding to court it’s eviction oh. It’s a social landlord that can afford for non payment before they bankrupt person with foreclosure. Also make sure you know what the law says before you invest in rental property through a mortgage as some area it’s automatic eviction for none payment. Touch wood as so far no problems have not seen my tenant in 6 years just his standing order. Rents are now crazy in the area so knows he has it good. true2home: |

Dangote suspended production of 42.5R cement. What you see more in circulation is 42.5N, If you want a rapid curing Portland Cement consider Lafarge Portland Cement "Supaset". 1 Like |

/ The ugly side of property ownership/management that most people fail to mention. It is a lot easier to collect in Nigeria than US. Professional tenants in US have all the tenancy laws at the back of their hands. The case going to court buys then at least another 6 months of free rent. Getting a judgment against them is one thing, collecting is a whole new headache. The court loves those filing fees. Now talking about Nigeria, tenants even form "association" to battle the landlord. I gave a flat for free to a troublemaker to act as a rent/debt collector and caretaker. But Enugu is where the most headache exists. Some people want to live in a place they cannot afford. First rent is never a problem. It is the subsequent rent renewal that all the long stories show up. Some tenants will turn to "artful dodgers". So when people build hostels(annual renewal) and hotels (daily renewal) in Nigeria, I understand. 3 Likes |

GoodFaith: By the time you go through the rigmarole, I would have hired 4 Cele pastors, a bell and three white candles to come and dance in my compound and the tenants go . By the way I like how your statements are laced with a lot of "if". They are called "professional" tenants for a reason unless you are dealing with amateurs. They can file for continuance to drag the case out. They are in it to irritate and wear you out knowing that the court process does not move fast enough. Sometimes you will be better off with eviction only and count your losses. / 2 Likes |

GoodFaith:/ While the case lasted, were you paying mortgage in the house? How long did the case take over all? A lot of houses in Nigeria were built with no mortgages. It makes things a lot easier with no banks breathing down your neck. \ |

Waladade4luv: Vibrated blocks are best of course. But it still has to be the correct mixture. Some of our local blockmakers use too little cement in their mixture. I did not make any of the 8,000 or so blocks that I used so far on my project. I instead ask for specific blocks to be made for me. I add N5 or so to the price per block and I usually give the employees money when they are making my blocks. None of this is a guarantee. On future projects, I will be buying a used vibration machine and make my own blocks then sell off the machine afterward. Just an idea from one person, let others give you their own opinion. Good luck on your project. |

EgunMogaji: Sorry Chief, I got carried away with too much activities early on in the year and couldn't settle down to write. But the ideas are there and experiences now richer. The thing I find amazing, is that my posts in 2011 are still very relevant in 2018, its like nothing changed I am going back to the thread as promised. 1 Like |
