See my room two months after I paid for house rent at Ajah
na wa o.

Drill a small hole at the bottom of the wall and put a small water pipe into the hole for the water to flow out. If outside the house is dry, you you can have temporary reprieve.

cry

Or call carpenter to build bed matress support like platform with plank all over the room... Or small wooden podium to cover the whole room.... Use carpet or rug to cover the wood surface.

You can build such for half of the room so you'll have dry space to put your things on.

Is extra cost... But since you're just 2 months in... You still have a long way to go in the house

I saw hell searching for house two years ago.

One agent took me to an abandoned house with no ceiling where nobody is currently living, I know the house so I didn’t bother entering the house with him.

Another agent took me to a house where as short as I am my head is almost touching the bedroom ceiling.

They took me to a lot of old dirty houses, mehn I saw hell.

I'm already laughing from all the write ups.

I'm currently looking for a mini flat. When I go for house hunting I dress well to avoid nonsense. Last week I was a bit unwell and my dressing made me look somehow, this agent of darkness took me to the end of the world all in the name of an estate, renovated building and he said it was a new building.
When the guy holding the keys came he was like madam you are lucky ooo, the person that left here didn't want to leave if not that he built his own house. I looked at the agent and he said the house is good as new.
The kitchen has only the sink hanging somewhere and no space for cabinet, the toilet nko be like say someone did something nasty there and didn't flush
Na so I para for the guy, he was like you go wash am now. I gave him 5h for his stress and he stood there ranting.
I don't pay for agent until I see the house.
Highest I will pay is 7h.
Agent peeps, nonsense and buhari.

House hunting is not easy and it's quite draining.

I had gone with an agent to secure a self contained room at ijeshatedo, ilasamanja .

The former tenant had packed out in a hurry . Reasons were visibly obvious.

They had just recently buried the landlord in the parlour!!!!!

Immediately, I cancel all contact with the Agent and told them my mind.

Thankfully I had not paid for the form.

The wickedness of Men.


The parlor of the tenant?
Can they do that?

So it kinda remind me of my own o. Almost 3 years ago. I saw an agent's number and I gave him a call that I needed a room preferably in a flat. I t should be neat and the likes... He described one place for me to go and check at a relatively low price(1st trigger). As I entered the flat, the room was filled with numerous jargons and the ceiling is almost touching my head with the way it bent inward. When I attempted to check the toilet and I knocked my head against the wall as the entrance was low (even for a person of average height like me); that was when I confirmed I should run for my dear life. I did not even call back to give him my assessment. He later called me that I didn't even tell him if I was able to locate the place. I nearly blasted him for making me suffer unnecessary hardship. He said the rent price could be reduced further.

I can't stop laughing. I can recall what I and my fiancee went through looking for a place in Ketu before we settled at Jakande Estate.

The developer showed us a renovated building in front of an old buried house. Telling us to pay, that people are already coming for the place. Dirty environment, small rooms, in short cry cry cry.

The agents are just after your money and stressing you enough to want to settle for anything after the stress.

Better not to always be in hurry to rent house in Lagos.

I remembered looking for a Mini flat. The agent took me to a house. I had to pass through a long passage to the backyard.
The entrance was just opposite the face me I face you toilet. The doors were made of plywood. The ceiling was dangling.
The agent told me to pay and the money would be used to make repairs.
Bloody lairs. If I had paid, I'd be left with my fate.
