I lost my dad's land documents..and I want to sell it....how do retrieve it..
The land is registered..
if u are sure the land is not 8n dispute, quietly go get a surveyor let him resurvey the land try and get the name and address of the people that sold the land, without them knowing ur plans and write another agreement and sign it urself. Also go to court and get an affidavit all quietly. If not people weh sale the land to ur father go come collect the land as soon as they hear the documents don lost.

Apply to the land registry for certified true copies of the documents. A CTC has the same weight of admissibility in law with the original
that is if the land document don reach there. They only keep copy when u apply for C of O or probably have C of O.

If you can locate the family that sold the land, they usually have copy of every land sold, pray the family is a good one else it is very risky, they could deny ever selling the land to your father, even if family is good they will still demand some huge money to prepare a replica of what is lost, this is the best option though.
if try that one u are on scale 9f 60: 40 to lose the land.
First they didn't sale the land to him and probably when it sold they may had sold it cheap compare to the current price.

Even if you had the land documents, you can't still sell it. There is a legal process to go through before you can transfer the property to a 3rd party. I have stopped giving legal Advice for free. Contact me if you need any. I will charge you for the cost of the legal Advice. Nothing goes for free in Nigeria anymore.
I don't know which state u are speaking from, but here In Rivers state It doesn't work like that. I'm even sure in lagos it doesn't work too. If not, how come the so call omo nile will sell one land to more that 3 persons.

Don't understand the type of document you Lost if is deed of assignments, it comes with four documents one for the land seller, one for the lawyer that prepare the documents and other two copies for you. You can still contact the lawyer that prepare it.

If is survey, just contact a surveyor and take the coordinates of the land, the surveyor will take it to lands or surveyor general office and another surveys copy will be issued,


If is C of O, just go to lands with affidavits of Lost documents.

correct only Advice I have seen here.

Consult a lawyer. You can do a fresh Deed of Assignment and a fresh survey plan.

I.am sorry to say this without apology ...you didn't lose the document ...is never in your care. The truth is that you are seeking advice on how to sell that property without the consent of your dad or those involved . My instinct tells me so ...it had never failed me . ..
Not at all...

You might be right, considering the facts land documents are not something you move around with, it's something you can keep in your home in a secluded area, so I'm wondering how the documents got lost when the house was'nt burnt down, nor any story of theft...

Baba wants to sell something that doesn't belongs to him...

Update: When my father was alive he collected 2m loan from a bank with his landed property and completed the loan and he wanted a bigger loan the bank told him they won't accept landed property for a bigger loan then he brought his 2 buildings for 20 million loan which the landed property wasn't included in the 20milliin loan...My Late father requested for the landed property from the bank they refused to give him the landed property documents.. And now he is dead..We are now finding a way to retrieve it and sell it..
Any guide??

The land is registered..

If the land is registered why not go get a copy from the department it's registered to?

How many inheritance do you want to build on? So if your parents have 100 acres, it mandatory you have to build on it all!

What if area is not in vogue and homie wants an uplift?

Better erase that mentality!

Most of the real estate you cherish today will be disposed by your kids cos their taste will be on another level.


Some won’t even be claimed and who does not even know the owner of land will make use of it till eternity!

It’s the truth!

People who invest in real estate don’t do for their kids to move-in or build! They use it to hold capital down while it appreciates!


It’s very rare for two generations to have same taste. But then knowing the real value of property and putting proceeds to better investment and use, is what’s most important.
