Sarang:Hahahahahaha The thing is most Nigerians are not well informed. UK economy is the 6th largest economy in the whole world. Canada is nowhere on the list of 8th biggest economies in the world. The only thing Nigerians complain about UK is high income tax up to 40% which doesn't always translate to 40% of their income when properly calculated. And the same tax they hate UK for, they pay same or even higher in Canada via purchase goods tax or consumer tax aka VAT, some province pay as much as 30% in Canada. Another thing that make Canada better than UK for most Nigerians is the ease of securing a PR in Canada and the so called Canada Express Entry that bring high skilled migrants to Canada without befitting job that befit their high skill profession they sacrificed to move to Canada. Most end up saying they did it for their kids knowing they made a mistake already but cant go back. When it comes to ease of securing a job, UK is far better than Canada unless you are living on a fools paradise. Many qualified internationally educated nurses are jobless or working unskilled jobs in Canada, it can never happen in UK or US. Canada healthcare is poorly funded, their employers dont have the robust economy like UK and US to earn excess profit to be able to sponsor as much foreign healthcare professionals they need into Canada. They mask all these with you need to get Canada experience, what freaking Canada experience? I never compared Canada with Nigeria, Nigeria is not better than any country on earth right now so I cant make such foolish comparison and it's because of successive useless Presidents and Governors like the ones we have now that made Nigeria a mess it is, so Canada can never be compared to Nigeria unless for illegal migrants then Nigeria should be better for them than Canada. You that live in Canada, how freaking rich are you? Most Nigerians in Canada are just managing, you can hardly count real rich Nigerians living in Canada, if there are any, they are a very handful compared to Nigerians living in other developed countries with booming economies, those are my point. Nigerians need to be educated about this Canada hype, that country is not what they hype it for. It is only good for those desperate to obtain a PR fast. 2 Likes

DuchessAmanda:Nigeria is no longer looking good for retirement. 10 to 20 years ago people wanted to come retire here.( inflation , poor healthcare, kidnapping, banditry has increased). Many of the recent immigrants are young and just starting a family, why should they not buy a house Should they keep paying rent when they can channel that money to mortgage and own the house in 15 to 25 years. Because of the laws in the western world many women or wives dont want anything to do with Nigerian. They see going back as losing their advantages. Its men that usually want to go back. The houses in the west appreciates more when you consider exchange rate. I invested in something last December in Nigeria. Canadian dollars was 550 then, now its 820. All the profit i was supposed to make don vanish. Same with real estate the house you bought for equivalent of 30k dols in Nigeria last year has lost value due to exchange losses. |

Pew - Windsor, ON, Canada. Human trafficker as you are, use blood money like the Asma Boys in the desert, specialize in organs selling. You revealed yourself. We know the village you came from by the way you describe your country. But your day go be one day. You have never failed to support those who cause human misery around the world. So the plight of fellow Nigerians outside in a fringing cold country must be exploited for money to invite more of them. Sincerely, I have to cool down to put this mildly. |

Gerrard59:Not entirely true. There are some properties that command N15m-N30m/yr in rent .. some commercial properties charge 3-5yrs upfront. So 20m/yr X3yrs =60m.. $55k-60$k is a lol of money to be made once.. and you take it back to you country of residence and invest in a biz/stocks/mutual funds or for down payment on a house. In abroad, rental income comes every month and it can never come in bulk to be used for huge investment.. they come in $1k, $2k, $3k in a month and you have to pay mortgage, insurance and taxes from it. |

Somebody did a documentary about the living conditions of some Africans in Canada, despite the video evidence, you said it cannot be true. E pele oooo. Mr Windsor. Because you have it good doesn't mean everyone else does. I'm sure you're still a new immigrant in Canada that is why you're talking smack.

Gerrard59: I want to assume that you're speaking from an uninformed point of view. First, I noticed is that many of these anti-Nigerians are the first to build or buy houses but they won't tell you. I was in Abuja and was shocked that a friend in my city who claims he'll never develop a property in Nigeria is developing a 100M personal property. His younger brother told me and my friend is not aware that I know about his property. Who do you think owns many of the AirBnB homes in Lagos? Who do you think owns the estates and mansions built in cities and villages. Who do you think is developing the real estate sectors in many of the big cities? From Lagos to Ogun to Benin to Delta to Anambra. In Ikoyi alone there are over 10 flats that I know people financing and we live in the same city. In over a decade of living oversees, I have meet thousands of Nigerians and only a few are not interested in owing personal houses. Don't let anyone deceive, search the internet and you'll understand why Lagos/Abj is a good investment for real estate. The major problem investors face is Government/community encumbrances. Find out about the REITS yield in Nigeria. Some have offered yields of 10% or more. 2 Likes 1 Share |

BabaRamota1980: You said in terms of resourcefulness, manpower and skills, Nigeria is ahead of Canada. Seriously, are you for real? Do you realize that Canada is a country of just 39m people but has the world's 8th largest economy? So paying for services is now bad from your post. So you don't pay for electricity,rent,car registration,taxes etc in Nigeria abi? Anyway I'm not surprised. After all, is it not in Nigeria people bypass prepaid meters so that they don't pay for light, is it not in Nigeria where an employer can owe their workers salary for months cos nobody wants to pay for anything in Nigeria so I can clearly understand your wacky mentality. You said that Canada has less than 5 metropolitan cities, seriously? From your post you don't even know the difference between a province and a city yet you are writing trash. By the way sun does not set at 3pm during the winter, it sets at 5pm. You also did not mention that in the spring and summer period, the same sun sets at 10pm. This is nature, it is not created by man You guys are masters of trashing countries better than yours but you can't channel that same energy to hold your own leaders who are responsible for this mess accountable. Common sense should tell you that these increasing wave of asylum is as a result of Nigeria getting worse. If Nigeria was thriving, why would people take such a risk. Rather than attack the root cause, you will rather trash a country that tries to cater for her people to the extent that they have food banks where the poor can go and collect free food but your own government hoarded covid palliatives until citizens broke the warehouses and took it by force. I don't know how Nigeria is breeding illiterates that sit in the corner of their villages and be writing trash online. By the way, I'm not in anyway supporting japa by all means, that's stupidity.

BigIyanga: First bold, the naira tends to devalue rapidly than the dollar or euro. I really need to look at the numbers behind using dollars to invest when the returns are naira domiciled. Second bold, isn't the narrative that the first house would be used as a collateral to obtain a loan to invest in something else? Although, I agree that liquid cash is king. |

studyless123: My bad. I should have been more specific - I am not interested in residential properties as the investment will be dollar-domiciled, but returns are naira domiciled. How does that translate to profit? Who do you think owns many of the AirBnB homes in Lagos? It makes sense to use naira investment to invest in real estate in Nigeria, but dollars? I am not too sure. The naira has devalued so badly, especially last year and this year. If the owners of these residential properties intend to move back for good to Nigeria, I can understand. This is why I also stated that Nigeria is not the only black dominated country. There are other options. Most importantly, my parents already own residential properties, so I don't see the need to double down with dollar capital to earn naira. My uncle, who resides in Northern Europe, has a property only God knows how much he ploughed in, but the rents are in naira. And the property was completed before the rapid naira devaluation o. Don't let anyone deceive, search the internet and you'll understand why Lagos/Abj is a good investment for real estate. The major problem investors face is Government/community encumbrances. I agree that both cities are the best for residential property investments, but the politics of Nigeria deter me. I will look at other places. |

Gerrard59:Per 1st hold, if you get 20-60m from 1 rental deal in bulk, you can invest in foreign treasury bills,bonds/stock, reit, mutual funds.. then why are u worried about devaluation when you investment in Naira and your return in Naira is converted to $€£ once you get paid in bulk? Also Naija real estate is naira denominated, so your foreign inflow realized from Naija rental income, is going to have more purchasing power when you’re ready to buy more Per 2nd bold… I dont understand, why are you using a house as a collateral to buy another house? I know of someone looking for a residential property to let @15m/yr when they got the money to pay.. it had been rented by another tenant. Someone was looking for a commercial lease @15m/yr for 5 years@75m… and another tenant paid for 7yrs @105m for the same property. This is a commercial property with zero maintenance cost. Commercial real estate is something else. |

Majority of the customers were igbo, but since after elections business don slow, the igbos are not buying the stuff like before. I was expecting Ronu idiots to come buy them. Guess what they have no money to buy. So I cannot support Ronu when don cast one business like that. |
