I need sincere advice pls.
My fiance and I are planning t get married soon, hence, we need to get a new accommodation. We both work in surulere and so thot it wise to get an apartment that will be close to surulere, but the prob is the house rent fee, they are just too killing. He has a nearly completed building in ikorodu, agric side that we can actually complete with less than #300,000, and so he is saying we shud complete that one and move in, but am actually thinking of the stress of coming to work everyday with him driving from ikorodu to surulere, daily and me going back home alone in the evening every day cos I cant be waiting for him to leave office , he close late, wat shud we do
thx

My advise is to complete ur house and move in or rent it out to raise money to get accomodation close to ur offices.

ok, thx

i live in ikorodu too, and it could be really stressful leaving home in the morning. nevertheless, its a wise idea to finish up ur property and start getting rent from it, if u dont want to live there. wishing u a happy married life in advance

couldnt have said more, yyou just said it all

Nothing like staying in your house especially as a new couple, the peace of mind overshadow the stress of rents, landlord and agent palaver. Wish you a happy married life. cheers

I was about starting the same topic.I am in this same situation exactly.mine is around adamo going towards Imota.I am very confused my house rent as just been increased to 500k/annum.Plz is there any alternative route getting to Ikorodu apart from mile 12 area?I heard theres one around redemption camp that leads to Ogijo area is there any one that leads to Maya,lucky fibre and environs? usefull contriution will be highly appreciated.

if you can spend 300k to complete your own house.then why do you need to pay someone 500k.the only problem here is the early morning traffic to ketu and as well going back in the evening.but you can always work out the time to leave your house.You have alot to save at the end.i leave in oreputa and goes to idumota for business no stress.use BRT instead of driving.best of luck.
