I never said I strongly believe it'd happen, just saying it's not impossible...the human factor in negotiations of all kinds can't be written off, even for things people consider luxury purchases.

If she was dealing with the agent directly, I'd say it's impossible, but she's dealing with the landlord, and the things he'd be considering renting his property out won't be same as an agent. [b]For someone that's a proeprty owner in Ikoyi, that 25M fit be nothing for e cash flow, meaning they can be sentimenta[/b]l.

If people who have money treat money like this, they will end up broke like everyone else.

Theflint1:
All the homes in Ikoyi are not evenly priced, and there's sometimes wiggle room in original asking when renting. It's highly unlikely the seller is won over by the letter, but it's not impossible.

I know someone that till today, his rent in a 4-bed duplex around Ikotun is 600K.

Lmao 😂

So because it happened in Ikotun u strongly believe it will happen in Ikoyi bá?

semid4lyfe:
I agree with your general sentiment but on some rare occasions, the landlord may just take a liking to you and give you some concessions like a flexible payment plan.

I got such a concession when I moved into my current place. Landlord agreed for me to pay 80% upfront and pay the balance 3 months into my rent period. Also, gave me a few days jara by allowing my rent to run from 1st February despite moving in mid-January.

....And oh, no be Lagos landlord

I have relatives that also had their rent pegged at the initial price for at least 7 years in this Lagos. But that's definitely not in Ikoyi.

U see the thing about those highbrow areas is the people who own those properties know the value of what exactly they possess. And when I say this, I don't mean maybe the beauty of the house or anything like that, but the commercial viability of their property. If u feel whatever amount tbey are asking for as rent is too much, right there u would see a corporate organization pay the price and convert the house to a commercial premises.

I attached picture of a 25 million naira per annum 2 bedroom at Ikoyi to this post. What I'm clearing Theflint1 is that u won't see a landlord that will forgo let's say 2 million out of the asking price and collect 23 million from u because u write letter say u dey dream of living in the house and u can plant flower.

If we are talking of a property at Igando and u are begging landlord from 800k to 750k, I can agree it is very much possible.

Theflint1:
Well we can't say how much she's offering to pay compared to what it's listed for. Some people don't depend on money they collect for rent for their sustenance, they just want someone that's staying in the house and keeping it maintained...she fit get luck say the owner na that kin person.

I do agree it's a hard ask sha, especially since he could bid his time for responsible tenants that would meet his asking.

Forget ghat talk.

Nobody lets out an Ikoyi property for a chicken change; not even a non profit organization will rent out a landed property at Ikoyi for a price less than it's true market value.

Real life no be nollywood bros.

Theflint1:
She's looking to rent in those Ikoyi dem, just might work...if na your regular lagos Landlord no chance in hell.

Dey play!

Do you know how much the landlord will pay Lagos state government for Land use charge in a very highbrow area like Ikoyi?

Why should the landlord reduce his rental income because she's a good writer and she believes she can plant flowers to beautify the house she will be staying?

This lady wants to rent a house in Lagos but the asking price for rent is above her budget.

So, she decided to write a letter to the landlord for him consider her price and she promise to be the best tenant he will ever have 🤡🤡🤡

This one no know Lagos landlords at all.

KingTom:

Segelanky:

afrodoc:
So na Sege and TemporaryHansel mislead the lecturer. 😀

afrodoc:

So if Sege enter woman for 5 mins come out and deviate with other talks for 50 mins, to go complete another 5 mins, himself go dey claim 1 hour geng. 😀

Exactly! That's what they mean by going 1 hour on top woman.

Unfortunately, people like the deceased lecturer go think say they mean the 1 hour literally begin mix aphrodisiac and energic drinks together only to kick bucket in the process

afrodoc:
LOL

Which one be relax, chill, talk, bring more talks?

If it is by that then people can last 1 year sef not just 1hr.

They are talking about 1 hr of continuous kpa kpa kpa kpa.

Don't mind Sege.

He still wan dey renovate meaning of one round again.

We all know what one round of boxing is; dem go use blow collobi person head until the person either gets knocked out or finds means to counter before the round ends.

E reach to count wetin be round for knacking, we begin hear u go chill, relax and blow

TemporaryHansel:

He no care whether people dey troll themselves or not, he go just write his long story about Oluti Triple towers and the Ashawo's he has missed and he will bounce .

Recently I just remembered that Aro1 that always fantasize about doing it raw and watching it flow out like a boss. I wonder if he still lives that kind of life till date.

The guy must have applied to form an Islamic Party in South Africa just to farm attention. I mean the number of Muslims in South Africa is not even up to 2% of the entire population, so how would he have achieved anything even if the party was registered?

, I am the substantive Petroleum Minister.

Chakam! 📸

Substantive Petroleum Minister who oversaw $2.98 billion going down the drain with nothing to show for it.

In March 2021, the Federal Executive Council, led by the late President Muhammadu Buhari, approved the sum of $1.5bn for the rehabilitation of Port Harcourt Refinery in Rivers State.The former Minister of State for Petroleum, Mr Timipre Sylva, said the rehabilitation would be done in three phases of 18, 24 and 44 months.

In August 2021, the FEC also approved the sum of $1.48bn for the rehabilitation of both Warri and Kaduna refineries.

This puts the budget for the three refineries at $2.98bn under the immediate-past Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd, Mele Kyari.

Despite huge spending, Port Harcourt refinery resumed briefly before shutting down, Warri refinery followed the same path, while Kaduna refinery remains idle.

I tell you growing old is no fun especially when all these chronic diseases start

One of my friends mom living in Africa died this morning. She has been complaining of some symptoms over the last 1 month but she refused to use medication claiming she knows her body and she has faith

One Monday while talking to someone over the phone her speech started to slur and was saying gibberish. They took her to a hospital and she passed

She was supposed to travel to Yankee to visit her kids and grandkids this weekend

One of my friend dad’s nickname is “àgbà ṣòro da " (Growing old comes with its own complications).

Living through my late dad's experience, old age just comes at you suddenly! One minute you are having the time of your life with your grandkids at your table making you laugh heartily with their shenanigans and the next day you are down with an irreversible medical condition 🤦‍♂️.

That’s why I find it amusing that a man above 70 years of age will be scheming to rule this complex country called Nigeria when there are enough personal headaches to deal with at that age .

Akinlot:
Where I work and in other companies within the industry, vacancies for experienced hire are usually filled by in-house contract staff.

Many times I wonder why they advertise and continue to waste people's time. Perhaps, there's a law that says they must.

For a company that uses contract staff for operational roles , it is not out of place to absorb their contract staff .

What we are talking about here is a real job opening being announced and then assume the company would pick a specific candidate they anointed instead of the best candidate based on merit . Maybe some companies do it , but most top companies with standardized processes would not .

Akinlot:
This is mostly true for experienced hire. For graduate trainee it's not.

It’s not even true for experienced hire .

Most companies that are well run have checks and balances in place to ensure the best candidates are employed and not the nonsense man-know-man.

By the time u have 2 to 3 stages of interview with different people in the reporting line and maybe a top management person/MD, water would find its level .

TemporaryHansel:
Also as for job vacancies being posted online. In most cases, those companies only publish those vacancies online to fulfil all righteousness oh. They already have people they intend to employ. Of course, I'm not talking about Lagos here. Lagos is an outlier.

This is not true at all ❌
