My Life Savings.. What Do I Do? by praz001(m): 6:35pm On Jul 14, 2021
Good day guys....
I really need your advice on this...

I lease a land I'm currently using for a basic school. The landlord approached me last year that he will be selling off the land because he urgently need some money....

We actually agreed on 10million naira for the piece. (a 2 plot of land) Our initial agreement was that I will be paying him anually till all payments is made then he will hand over the land document to me. Out of which I gave him 500k as first part.

Towards the end of last month he called me he wont want to collect the money again in part payment that he needed the money in full or in two part payment within 2 year (5m per year) I've sourced around and offered to pay him 1m for now but he rejected.

Guy I really am in a big mess what do I do? My life savings is on this place....

There is no big mess anywhere. Since you can't raise it, request for refund since he is the one trying to break the agreement.

You're already running a school there and he wants the land back? Hm.. bad belle.

Get a loan from the bank or look for another property and move your school.

Crowdfunding will bail you out or establish a church enterprise in part of the land before a year, tithes and offerings must have exceeded your target amount

If you have used the land for a church service.... Both tithe and offerings would have covered the money.

Did you see any documents with him concerning the agreement?

If not, it's a lost case because he will deny you.

If you gave him 500k without any written document, I'd say you're the biggest fool of the 21st century...

Oga, go and get or rent another place 4 ur school.
Re: My Life Savings.. What Do I Do? by Nobody: 10:28am On Jul 15, 2021
For a moment , I was even imagining what kind of landlord accepts 500k yearly payment for a 10m deal? That's absurd, mehn.

You either source for loan, pay his money ones or twice(as he said), or you move your school elsewhere and collect your 500k back.

Me sef can't agree on that your nonsense talk of paying 500k yearly. That money can never be useful to him.

As in ehn, how many years before 10m Naira go complete, the landlord didn’t think it through before

Anyway help him get a buyer and he should refund

Look for an investor who can partner with you, he/she will raise the balance cash, you pay the landowner and gradually pay back or go to the bank, use the property as collateral and endeavour you judiciously pay back the bank.

You can ask your bank for overdraft. 10 million is chicken change.

I understand your plight because location is very essential in running a school.

In which state is the land? If it's in imo or enugu, i can buy it and lease it back to you. But that's after evaluating its truth worth.
