depends on location in places like lagos and some cities is not too possible, it always on agents

estatemark:
Putting the whole blame on landlord and agent is  like paying undue attention to the symptoms rather than the real cause of the problem, everything points to demand for homes and availability, technically speaking, market forces. If Government can provide supportive policy that will drive down cost of building material, empower people with cheap sources of mortgage loan, provide good and accessible road and modern means of transportation then we will be on the right direction to solving this problem.

Majority of Nigerians have plots that can easily be developed but are unable to do that because they lack fund or absence of  good access road that will enable them get to their place of work if they eventually relocate to their own properties.

The effect of the above is excessive demand for few houses at Victoria Island, Lekki axis, Yaba, Surelere, Anthony Ilupeju, Maryland and since they must get to work earlier, nobody will like to live in an area where you have to spend 2-4 hours in traffic except you want your boss to welcome you with sack letter or queries.
In developed countries, distances and traffic jam is not a determinant of where to live in order to make it to office in goodtime. In such countries also there is deliberate policy of Government to empower people irrespective of their economic status. Almost  anyone can acquire houses through long-term mortgage arrangement unlike in Nigeria where such arrangement are fraudulently made to favour few highly placed individuals and their cohorts.

Housing is a basic need for everybody. Any man without a roof over his head cannot be of a sound state of mind to deliver at what he or she knows best. Government must ensure that cost of building  materials are brought within the reach of a common man, a bag of cement today is N2,300.00 last year it was between N1,600 –N1,800.
Government  should encourage banks to pay more attention providing mortgage at affordable  cost  and reasonable terms. It should partner with building societies to provide adequate houses for  the masses at affordable terms.

Goods roads and development of transportation system are pivotal to solving the problem because this  will help to decongest certain area where properties are unduly priced high like Yaba, Surulere

I chose not to ride the TTC, cos it is too disgusting for me, Sir . . . .  So i chose to drive, and wont mind to pay the extra cost of packing downtown Toronto.
I think that is enough to answer your questions.

If you read me well, Fashola tried, but those particular trains are not what should be bought, even TTC will be rolling out the newer model soon, so why do we wanna end up taking the junks of others.
When will Nigeria stop using Tokunbo stuff, dem use used stuff do Nigeria?

Can't knock his ambition, it is a noble thought.
But phuck it, I woulda gone for those fast fancy trains, forget the money. Money is everywhere. 

Laajman:
@maxpro-xl, good suggestions.

Like I mentioned earlier, BRF is doing well, but seems to be over-hyped. Maybe because we've gotten accustomed to bad leadership.
Honestly, I'm not overly impressed with his embarking on a railway system. I dont expect any less from him. I may be wrong but I think
Lateef Jakande had such plans before the military intervention.

Lagos State has massive potential, given its demographics and economics. We shouldnt be falling over ourselves when our leaders do the right thing. Rather, we should seek to raise the bar.

This blog is a collection of stuff that dumb people like!

It's as if their points of view come from a deep hatred

What DUMMIES!

For Goodness sake, Fash is working, support him, Pray for him, He's f**kin not a machine

He can't make everything right in 8yrs but he will give us HOPE!!!

Fash is still the greatest Gov lasgidi ever had.

Dummies don't appreciate good work.
