Investment / How To Write An Ideal Eviction Letter by AROSEGLINKS(m): 11:56am On Mar 02, 2020
As a landlord, issuing out an eviction notice also known as quit notice at one point or the other is also unavoidable. It is a needful step to take when you want a tenant to move out of your property. There are some common mistakes which landlords make when writing an eviction letter. This article gives you a step by step guide to writing an ideal quit notice.

What is an Eviction Letter?
An Eviction letter is an official letter written by a property owner (landlord) to the tenant stating that he/she should adhere to the tenancy agreement or move out from the property. An eviction notice is also known as a notice to vacate or quit notice. The notice is served when the landlord and tenant are unable to reach a consensus.

In some cases, the eviction notice may be conditional or unconditional. In cases where it is conditional, the notice is as a result of a breach in the agreement which can be resolved if the tenant complies before the set date. However, when a notice is issued without condition, the tenant is mandated to leave before the set date as he/she can do nothing to avoid the eviction.

When do you need an Eviction Letter?
It is important to understand the conditions when you need to serve an eviction letter to your tenant. As a landlord, before you can serve a termination of tenancy notice, your reasons have to be clear and understandable. It is not uncommon for landlords and tenants to have disputes, either as a result of a misunderstanding in the tenancy agreement



There are there are times when the notice is avoidable especially when the disagreement can be resolved between them. Perhaps the tenant defaults in payment of rent, paying service fees or fix a damage, there are a series of steps that can be taken to sort it out. There is also an option of issuing out a “pay or quit” which mostly lasts for three to seven days.

However, there are other cases where the property is being out completely or will no longer be used for residential purposes, the tenant is expected to move out. Howbeit, this reason is expected to be stated clearly in the eviction letter.

Writing The Eviction Letter
Issuing an eviction letter is the right step to take after certifying that the tenant should evict the property for clear reasons. It is therefore essential that your letter is as formal as can be and is in accordance with the local and state government’s law. The eviction notice serves as a piece of evidence that the tenant was notified before any further action was taken.

Crafting an eviction letter requires the right amount of patience and the ability to take note of every little detail. Any mistake documented in an eviction letter can have elongate the eviction process, unplanned expenses as well as give your tenant an edge over you. This article provides you with a step by step guide to writing an eviction notice for a tenant.

Address the letter to the exact name on the tenancy agreement
This is the foremost step to take in writing an eviction letter. It is important to write from a perspective that is not offensive or threatening. Your letter should be addressed to the individual whose name is written on the tenancy agreement. It is therefore important to have a copy of tenancy documents.

For instance, you can address your tenant this way:

Ademola Olusola,

Inform the tenant of the eviction
The next step is to notify the tenant of the eviction. The details of your eviction notice should notify the tenant of the eviction. It is important to convey your message correctly in a way that whoever reads the letter will clearly understand your purpose of writing.

Be plain and concise
In trying to be courteous, it is essential that you do not pass the wrong message across. An eviction notice is a formal letter and as such should be treated as one. Your language use and tone when writing should be official as pleasantries are uncalled for in this type of letter.

That is, your letter can simply state this: You are hereby required to evacuate the 4 bedroom apartment you currently occupy no later than 19th October 2018.

State the reasons for the eviction
In cases where you want to give the tenant the option of fixing a damage in order to terminate the eviction process. It is important you state the reasons for the eviction and conditions for which the process can be reversed. However, if there is no way of avoiding the eviction, it is also important to state this clearly.

You can continue your letter by including reasons for evicting a tenant such as:

Stealing of personal properties of other tenants
The constant dispute between other neighbours
Damaging valuable items within the premises
Unlawful or illegal use of the property
Failure to pay rent at the agreed time and date
Be sure to include the specific time of eviction
The time period given to the tenant to vacate the property should also be stated clearly. However, the time of eviction differs from state to state. In Lagos State for instance, for an annual tenant, the time of notice is six months.

Therefore, before issuing an eviction notice, you should find out what the tenancy law applies in your state.

Ensure to get a copy of the letter
Like every other important document, you should keep a photocopy of the eviction letter for reference as well as to avoid misinformation if the case is taken to court.

Serve the notice
All your effort in trying to write a good eviction notice will be wasted if you do not serve the notice to the right person. The best approach is to hand it to the tenant in person or any member of the tenant’s family above the age of 18.

You can also send the notice via an electronic mail or paste it on the tenant’s door as is customary to Nigerian landlord.

Investment / Reasons You Should Not Avoid A Home Inspection.. by AROSEGLINKS(m): 10:45am On Feb 17, 2020
It is very easy to get carried away with the excitement of buying a new house that one ends up forgetting to make the important decision to have a home inspection before finally making the purchase.
Home inspections are a very important part of the home-buying process that can save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
Whether you have purchased ten different homes in the past or you are about to purchase your first home, a home inspection in almost every case is highly recommended.
Here are seven reasons to have a home inspection before you buy
1) It Reveals Critical Information
A good home inspection reveals information about the condition of a home. Thereby making the buyer aware of the repairs, maintenance and costs the home would require immediately, and over time. If a buyer isn’t comfortable with the findings of the home inspection, a home inspection presents one last opportunity to back out of the offer to buy. It is better to be safe than sorry
2) Safety
Bypassing a home inspection is a financial gamble that could lead to serious consequences. For example; A faulty electrical system that is ignored could easily turn into fire hazard.
The home inspection is a very good opportunity to thoroughly investigate the home you’re potentially going to be purchasing even if it is a newly built one. Most common home inspection problems include; improper electrical wiring, worn roofing and plumbing deficiencies
3) Negotiating Tool
A quality home inspection gives you fully detailed information about any underlying issues with your proposed home. With this, you can comfortably negotiate with the seller to either fix the issues or adjust the price accordingly.
4) Proper Budget Control
A good home inspection can help buyers identify how much more money or effort they are to spend to take the home to a condition that is personally acceptable. If you feel like the answer is going to make you over reach your budget bracket or you just don’t have the time, your house hunt may have to continue.
5) Future Costs
Knowing the problems that the house has, before buying, will give you a good idea of any costs you may have to deal with in the future hence helping you make important budgeting decisions and forecast future expenses
6) Maintenance Tips
With the wealth of knowledge, an experienced home inspector has, it would be very easy him to offer you tips, advice on repairs as well as maintenance. Your Home inspector has years of experience and a wealth of knowledge. Use this resource to its fullest by asking as many questions has you can
7) Uncover Structural Issues
One of the top reasons to hire a home inspector when buying a home is to determine if there are any structural issues with the home as the structure of a home is one of the most important components of a home.
Most structural issues can be very expensive to fix, the expertise of a home inspector, it can be very easy to overlook the problem that will end up costing you more than you planned. Also, Pests such as termites and rats can cause terrible damage to a home. These pests may have cost damages worth a lot of money. You can never be too sure that your prospective house, whoever appealing may have been subject to some damages hence the need for a home inspection.
It is imperative that you fully understand as many details as you can about the property you may soon call home as buying a home without inspection can pose a problem in the nearest future. Home inspections reveal the inner workings of your intended property, allowing you to know about the perks and pitfalls the home has to offer. Home inspections are very important.

Investment / A Case For Insurance In Nigeria by AROSEGLINKS(m): 10:33am On Feb 10, 2020
The Insurance sector is no doubt a multi billion dollar industry. Simply put, insurance is a protection, an indemnity against future loss (Wordweb).
The Real Estate industry, properties and home appliances in Nigeria are grossly under-insured. With a population of about 170 million people, there is no gainsaying the fact that there is a big market for insurance in Nigeria.
This essay is necessitated by the prevalence of building collapse, fire outbreaks in Nigeria in which properties running into millions of naira are lost for ever with no prospect of recouping one's investment because the properties and home appliances were not insured in the first place. Of course it is not always comfortable paying for something you probably may never recourse to. Be that is it may, insurance and particularly home insurers may just be an investment for the rainy day. Life is unpredictable; a house, home appliances that took decades to acquire can disappear with the twinkling of an eyelid sequel to a natural disaster (flooding, earthquake, fire outbreak) or even theft. Remember the serious flooding across Nigeria in the last couple of years where properties running into millions of naira were lost. Such scenarios underscores the importance of home insurance.
It appears quite a lot of folks and organizations in this clime seem to be averse to the concept of insurance generally let alone property or home insurance. Many people cite the Byzantine bureaucracy inherent in making claims in the Nigerian insurance sector as one of the reasons they hesitate to embrace insurance. They posit that it is easier for the insurance companies to deduct or collect premiums than to honour claims by clients. A case in point is a certain Pastor that had his property destroyed by the plane that crashed at Iju-Ishaga area of Lagos. He recounted his harrowing experience in the hands of his insurance company, how he was frustrated by preposterous requests for receipts to validate his claims.
Nigerians need to borrow a leaf from Western countries where home insurance is a basic necessity. Prospective clients should shop around for better deals. On their own, the insurance companies in Nigeria have a lot of work to do if they must harness the untapped potentials and opportunities in Nigeria. They should streamline the process of making and paying for claims

Investment / Why This Is The Best Time To Invest In Real Estate by AROSEGLINKS(m): 11:36am On Jan 27, 2020
It can be hard to tell when you should jump into the market. No one wants to start investing at the peak to lose it all. There are ideal times to begin investing in real estate. But the best time to start is now.

Why invest in real estate?
Some look to real estate as a means to diversify their investment portfolio outside of traditional investments like stocks or bonds. Others use real estate to get tax benefits, lowering how much they pay in taxes. Many enjoy the benefits of appreciation, which is the increase in value over time, and the ability to leverage the investment using a payment plan or other means of financing.

One of the top reasons to invest in real estate is to earn residual income, often called “cash flow.” Cash flow is income earned from an investment property after paying expenses and any debt services. It can be a tremendous addition to your investment portfolio.

Another is the luxury that comes with living in your own home with little or no stress to think of. Most families live in rent and that has has been a tackling issue for them as they either have to save up each month in order to meet up with the payment of the rent per annum.

Regardless of how you choose to invest in real estate, there’s no denying that the earlier you start, the better off you’ll be in the long run. The less time your money has to grow, the more you have to put into it. Waiting until the "perfect" time to invest in real estate means you're losing time that your money could be growing or loosing the comfort that comes from living in your own home.

We in AROSEGLINKS SERVICES have the best deals in real estates across the globe.

Properties / How Real Estate Agents Can Help Home Buyers Navigate Emotional Decisions by AROSEGLINKS(m): 5:10pm On Jan 21, 2020
Buying a home can be extremely stressful. For one thing, it's a huge expense. Plus, in some cases, it's a once-in-a-lifetime decision. And, of course, settling on a permanent property can be a choice fraught with emotion.
It makes sense, but it can make the real-estate process even tougher for buyers. That means it's often the real estate agent's job to ease their minds and lighten the situation. Here's how to handle emotional buyers like the pro that you are.
1. Know Their Problems - and Solve Them
As of 2018, a whopping 87% of home buyers relied on the help of a real estate agent to get them through the process. This trend has been on the rise since 2001, when only 69% of buyers used a real estate agent.
One big reason clients choose to work with you is because they know you can help guide them through the buying process. The buyer will describe all that they want and need from a property, as well as their financial constraints. Then, it's up to you to help them put all the pieces together.
It's easy for clients to get caught up on small details that weren't their focus at the beginning. It's up to you to help and guide them back in the right direction. Remind your buyers what they wanted in the first place, then find the properties that contain these facets.

2. Loop Them Into the Process
If your clients sit around and wonder how the home-buying process is going without taking part, their anxieties will probably get the best of them. Loop them into the entire process, not just the home-search portion.
For instance, they might feel more settled about the property they buy if they attend the inspection and know that the home has good bones.
The more activities your buyers take part in, the less intangible home-buying will seem. Keep them in the loop and give them the option to attend meetings and events. They'll feel better for it, and so will you.

3. Remind Them Which Problems Are Temporary
Buying a home is one of the biggest financial moves many people will ever make. Therefore, it's not surprising that so many potential buyers get caught up in the minutiae of home design when checking out homes. It's crucial that you help your clients separate major red flags from temporary ones.
Remind your clients that they can save for repairs to make their new home the perfect fit. Kitchens can be renovated and landscaping redone. Instead, encourage them to keep a list of non negotiable factors on hand at open houses, like a safe location, certain distance from work or number of bedrooms.
It's helpful to have a tangible reminder of the home qualities that matter most. You can guide your clients away from snap decisions by encouraging them to weigh location, size and condition over the visual elements shown in home staging.

4. Have Patience
You've been through the home-buying process multiple times. You know what your buyers can afford, and you understand how to read contracts. If a home inspector finds something, you instantly know whether it's serious or not. In short, while you know what's going on, your home buyer will probably not be as knowledgeable.
They're likely to bombard you with questions or worry that a minor annoyance will turn into a huge problem. As the real estate agent, it's your job to assuage these fears. Explain everything and have the patience to do so again if necessary.

5. Be Honest
No matter how emotional the home-buying process becomes, white lies won't smooth things over. The National association of realtors recently found in 2019 that buyers looked for honesty and trustworthiness in a real estate agent before anything else.
It's always a delicate balance to be honest without stressing or hurting your clients. That said, imagine someone comes to you with a small budget and a huge list of demands. You'll have to gently talk them down so that they have a more realistic idea of what they can buy.
Honesty helps ward off stress and disappointment later too. If your clients know what you can deliver, they'll approach the home search and buying process with a much more level head.


Navigating Emotional Decisions With Your Clients
Ultimately, the entire home-buying process is about your client. Give the best advice you can to get them to the finish line when the property and conditions are right.
That way, everyone can be happy with the results, and you can reach them with the right set of emotions - happy, assured ones.

Investment / New Year New Home, 4 Resolutions For Buying A New Home In The Year 2020.. by AROSEGLINKS(m): 12:14pm On Jan 13, 2020
Real estate agents say starting early is key when it comes to buying a first home.

For those looking to buy a home in 2020, it’s time to start planning. As a look ahead in the New Year, real estate agents say making and keeping these resolutions will help set homebuyers up for success.

RESOLUTION 1: START PLANNING EARLY.

Planning early to purchase a home for you and your family is quite paramount because it starts with a mindset. Get to know the location you would love to live and where you can afford to, make the necessary enquiries to ascertain the cost of owning a house there. Then budget your income to be able to meet up. Real estate companies like Aroseglinks service limited offers the option of paying with a spreadsheet of as long as a year and that will help you be able to pay in a particular amount monthly till the year runs out.

Resolution 2: Build a real estate dream team
Buying a first home is exciting and maybe a little intimidating. Working with the right real estate agent and mortgage broker can make life a lot easier – and more fun. An agent can help a homebuyer zero in on the right property during the search process and also advocate for homebuyers at the closing table.
“Looking for the house is just one step,” Jenkins says. “Once you find a house you like, who’s helping you after that? A real estate agent is there to help you negotiate the best terms in purchasing a home that benefits you.”
Jenkins says buying a home is not a simple project – it’s important for homebuyers to work with a trusted advisor. In addition to helping buyers in the real estate process, an agent can recommend home inspectors, repair services, home warranties and other important services.
“This is the biggest financial transaction of your life, why would you want to do it on your own?” says Jenkins “You need to find somebody you trust.”
Resolution 3: Plan for more than the down payment
In addition to the down payment, homebuyers will also need to pay thousands of naira in closings costs before the deal is final. They also may have one final year of rent due at their current apartment, need to hire movers, or have to pay for temporary housing while waiting to move into the new home.
The more money buyers have in their pocket when making an offer, the better shape they’ll be in. A buyer’s mortgage advisor or real estate agent can help buyers plan how much their savings goal should be.
Resolution 4: Create a (realistic) monthly budget
Once homebuyers have a feel for how much they are able to afford each month, they should work with a mortgage advisor to get pre-qualified for a loan that meets their needs and works with what they can afford monthly.
“It’s always good to know how much money you have in your pocket to spend.”
“A lot of times, people qualify for more than they can afford,” “You need to look at your finances and determine, ‘What do I feel comfortable with?’”
A rule of thumb is that housing costs shouldn’t exceed more than one-third of a homebuyer’s monthly income

The start of a new year is always an exciting time. Staying focused on the goals above will help make the homebuying process exciting, too!

Nairaland / General / Buying A Land: Things To Consider by AROSEGLINKS(m): 11:16am On Dec 16, 2019
Buying a land is considered one of the oldest forms used to determine how wealthy a person is in Nigeria. In times past, it is not unusual to see people measure a person’s wealth by the amount of land they own. Times have passed, and people now understand that there are a thousand and one more ways to determine this. However, the value placed on land cannot be undermined. For some, buying a land is one of those goals to achieve before a certain age or retirement.

At some point in life, you might consider yourself buoyant enough to be your own landlord. One option often considered by a lot of people is buying land to build a house i.e their dream home. Also, to the real estate beginner or pro, buying land for investment is considered one of the surest ways to make profits in the real estate industry. There are, however, different reasons why people decide on buying a land. Whether it is a plot of land or an acre, there are definitely, however, things to consider when buying a land.

1) Budget: Budget is the first thing to be put into consideration when buying a land. A budget serves as a guide, it allows you to make the best use of your funds.

2) Location of the land: Definitely, there is more to just buying a land. A lot of things are considered before making a purchase; one of which is choosing the perfect location for your land. Like many other real estate properties, the location plays a vital role in the overall value of the land. The amount a particular land might be sold for is dependent on many factors, one of those factors is the location of a land.

Another thing to be considered when choosing the location of the land is the potential growth of the area. You would want to ask yourself what the growth of the particular area would be like in ten to twenty years time. Inasmuch as land does not depreciate, having a strategic location would increase your chances of making more value on future sales

3) Land appreciation: A land is arguably the only asset that does not depreciate over a given period of time. It is nature’s gift to man and does not depreciate. The rate at which lands appreciate and never depreciate is what makes it one of the simple ways to invest in real estate.

4) Getting the necessary document: It might sound like the silliest of things to forget, but people still fail to get the necessary documents needed in order to claim ownership of the land they have purchased. It is one of the common mistakes or traps people tend to fall into from fraudsters or land grabbers. Buying a land without getting the necessary documents is a recipe for disaster. The reason why you would request for a certificate after the completion of a course is the same reason you need to get the necessary documents needed.

5) Mode of Payment: The mode of payment when buying a land is vital and might just be the only reason you are duped or not. No matter what you do, DO NOT PAY IN CASH when buying a land. You must ensure everything is properly documented from the cost of the land to the receipt of survey fees. The only way you can save yourself from unnecessary stress in the future is by documenting all the payments.

Nairaland / General / Challenges Facing The Real Estate Sector. by AROSEGLINKS(m): 10:29am On Dec 06, 2019
Despite the encouraging and evolving trends, the Nigeria property market is experiencing and the rapid urbanization of various cities in the country, the Nigeria real estate industry is still burdened by several issues that are hindering its growth. Some of the issues affecting the Nigeria property market and suffocating it from achieving it's true potential include;

High cost of property development
Building a house in Nigeria, especially in some urban cities like; Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt can be very high. Some of the reasons for this include; high costs of building materials, high skilled labor costs, costs associated with poor roads and sewerage systems.
This issue has been a major backlash in the cost of properties making the cost of properties be on the rise but in Aroseglinks services we hire skilled workers from the companies helping to bring down cost and help our customers not break a bank trying to buy a property.

Devaluation of the naira
The recent devaluation of naira is a huge obstacle for the development of Nigeria's real estate sector. Mainly because the Nigerian construction industry is heavily dependent on the importation of the raw materials and equipment they use for construction from foreign countries. However, a devalued naira increases the cost of purchasing these raw materials and equipment
In order to remain profitable when there are abnormally high costs of doing business, most property developers would take out the additional costs incurred, on the market.
The effect of the devalued naira would have been much milder if construction materials were produced locally, as the cost of getting these construction materials would reduce, in turn, making properties more affordable to the average Nigerian citizen or if companies work directly with foreign contractors and companies helping to use a strong and reliable material as well bringing down importation costs.

The" Omo-onile" menace
Most of the scams in the Nigeria real estate sector are perpetuated by the "omo-oniles". Apart from the fact that they are known to extort money from buyers who are developing their properties, most of them sell the lands inherited from their parents or grand-parents to more than one person. They tend to act on lands that have been sold but are yet to be developed and then they sell to a new buyer. Sometimes, they even sell lands that have been developed half-way to buyers and these buyers, in turn, find themselves in a continuous battle for possession of the land. There are a whole lot of land cases in this category presently in court and unfortunately, the "omo-oniles" are nowhere to be found and there are no means for these buyers to get their money back.

Aroseglinks services works directly with the Government to make sure situations like this don't arise.
