....Don't Be The Next Land Scam 


I've seen a lot of people, particularly young professionals in this new generation, continue to suffer agonizing losses at the hands of these land and property scammers.


Buying a land or house in Lagos, especially in popular places like Lekki, Ajah, Ibeju Lekki, Epe, Ikorodu, Surulere, Ebute Metta, Yaba, Festac/Ojo and the outskirts of Ikeja/ Maryland/ Isheri North and Alimosho environs has become painful and stressful because of the rise of land scammers and property fraudsters. Every day, thousands of Nigerians both at home and abroad are victims of losing Billions of Naira due to the following reasons:



1. Omo-oniles selling family lands with existing community issues or lands with serious court or police cases attached to them.


2. Questionable real estate developers selling houses with defective and bogus title documents or houses built on government lands,


3. Private Owners of property selling lands or houses that have incomplete documents or faulty titles or homes constructed on lands belonging to the Lagos state.


I am also aware of another group of people who purchased multi-million Naira homes in Lekki and Ajah from dishonest developers and deceitful Instagram agents only to discover later that the homes either had defects or were not for sale since the true seller did not exist or the documentation for the homes were defective.


I also know a handful of people who fell victim to Omo-oniles who bought community family lands in Ajah and Ibeju lekki worth millions of Naira and at the end of the day lost the land and their money because they bought stolen lands that belonged to other people and resold to them. Other victims bought lands that out rightly belonged to the Lagos State government and any structure put on it will surely be demolished, just like the ongoing demolition in Lekki


In short, this year has been a bad year for property victims who lost Billions of Naira of their life savings to Real Estate developers as a result of fake documents and they were all guilty of one thing. And that is;


"They all failed to conduct a verification exercise and investigate that property before paying for the land or house"


Many of the victims who were scammed,


1. were either too impatient,

2. Some were in a hurry to buy properties without investigating and verifying the documents.

3. Some refused to listen to advice to calm down and investigate the property,

4. Some were just too busy to worry about verifying a property,

5. Some entrusted buying a property to their relatives or close friends without monitoring it or getting an independent person,


7. Some were excited by the offer and preferred to buy without verifying,


8. Some were victims of their “I too know” because they read some land purchasing tips online and decided to verify them themselves without covering all the basics.

9. Some were simply not bothered about verifying and put all their trust in the transaction and ended up getting burned.

The summary is that many of them ended up dashing their life savings and family money to a stranger who ended up using their money for frivolous things. These victims ended up having no good land after they were scammed neither have they been refunded their money.


How can you work so hard to save money for many months or years ranging from ₦1,000,000 to ₦100,000,000 and above to buy a land or house and then refuse to pay a small token to verify the property because you are "stingy" or feel pressured by the agent or marketer to pay for the property without exercising caution to verify it?

That's why we allowed our client to carry out their search on any of our properties without putting any pressure on them for payment. Because we only work with government-verified documents and real estate partners at (Landgate Properties Investment Limited) for inquiries, you are welcome to chat with us on Whatsapp: 08055265195


Instead of giving away your life savings to a land thief and then scrambling to find a lawyer or the police to help you recover the money when problems arise, if you are so wealthy and have money to throw away, why not donate it to an orphanage or NGO? The worst aspect is that many victims are willing to pay 10 times as much money to reclaim the land or money at the police station when the land wahala arises.

If so, does it make sense?

Always tell your agent  this:

“OGA NO VEX - I TRUST YOU BUT I MUST VERIFY YOU. IF YOU WANT TO VEX, PLEASE VEX BUT I MUST STILL VERIFY YOU”
