Nobody can take your land from you, as you paid for it except the govt. PROS: - you live in a serene environment, with the basic facilities to expect in any civilized setting, except maybe light - there is a sense of responsibility regarding things like road, gutters, sanitation, and the management of other facilities. - there is also some degree of safety to enjoy - People dont just walk up to your gate anytime they feel like, without calling to inform you. CONS: - you have very little say in how the estate is managed - other people feel they can make rules for how you live in your own house - you must call security to identify your visitors otherwise they will likely be turned back. - the security is not always guaranteed - you pay service charges for the rest of your life. - you can still have nosy neighbours in your estate - One fool with over-bloated ego can hold your water supply, electricity or service to ransom if you decide to do somethings you want in your house outside the estate policy. They can be pretty rigid in their rules. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

If you want to invest in lands, estates are better because you don't need to build and you can pay monthly. for example, I bought a few plots of land at @ TREASURE PARK & GARDENS PHASE 2 (CITY OF DAVID) Shimawa which is at the back of redemption camp and because of the rail projects it has appreciated well and I want to sell part of it, My price is lesser than what the estate is selling because I bought it cheaper. I will sell Half plot and full plot. 1 Like |

Advantages, Your land is secure, very secure, in terms of the estate we have a global c of o (documentation) No omo onile problem or wahala, you have no business with omo onile. Your Land Can't be forcefully taking away from you social amenities like tared road, pipe borne water, electricity Disadvantages. You can't even bury a dog in the estate. You can't even build a shop or kiosk in front of your house. You must follow the rules and regulation of the estate, you can't build more than 2 stories, they may give you designs of what to build but for instance if you buy outside an estate, you can decide to build 10 stories as long as you have the money and the land structure make it possible for you to do so, and all the structural and engineering element is available. If you buy outside and estate, you can turn your structure to anything you want, hotel, school, hospital, bank can even patronize you, you can't do this inside an estate. 1 Like 1 Share |

pfadom: The info in your post is what a lot of buyers of estates in Nigeria are ignorant of. I handle lots of land transactions and in the course of pre-purchase inspections, I discovered that a lot of estates don't have valid documents enabling them to sell. If you ask them, they'll give you one file number to check at Alausa that they're processing their excision. This is a big lie as government doesn't give excision to Real Estate companies, but to traditional landowning families and communities. Most of them are selling future litigation that would not be borne by then but by their subscribers. The agents can't tell you this as they also are largely concerned about collecting your money and moving on to the next unfortunate buyer. There is a prominent Real Estate company that has an estate at Ibeju Lekki. The C of O of the family they bought from is subject of litigations, but they refused to tell their subscribers. One day, they would wake up and find that their properties have 'possession taken' written on them. Though there are a handful of good real estate companies with proper and secure documentation and title, a greater percentage of the estates marketed here on Nairaland have defective or no title. I've done PPI on tons of them and I'm pretty sure of this. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Estate lands could give greater peace of mind than others as there is unlikely to be encroachment. Also, the service charge will not be arbitrarily determined by the owners but by the residents' association. This leads to greater cooperation on important issues such as security and sanitation. There are many estates whose owners do not interfere in issues such as building type. They just want to sell their lands. Buy genuine estate lands in Ibeju Lekki near Dangote Refinery, Deep Sea Port and Free Trade Zone. Prices differ according to proximity to these great developments. There are lands of 750,000; 1.5m, 2.5m, 3m and 4m per plots. They all have verifiable documentations. Call 08188360168, 08132232989. Inspection is every day. Ibeju Lekki will be one of the best places in Nigeria. This is the best time to invest.

mecussey: My brother, don't even try it. Buy your land from individual. Forget Estate land, you may regret it with service charges that you will certainly pay for the rest of your life. Its just as if you're still a tenant. You can't do things anyhow in estate. However, if you're a a billionaire, or really boxed up, i mean heavily boxed up, why not.. But hmmm.... |
