Assuming this fellow is single.
100k monthly income equate 120k annual net ( if nothing else is coming in as additional renumeration)
A housing bill of 600k yearly ( less power, repairs, waste disposal).

First how did the person pay for the first year which might have been 600+ 100+100+50= 850?
Does this fellow need a prophet to say "you are living above your means".
Rule of thumb - your rent for a month or 2 max shld deal your rent.

This country is becoming something else. With the current high house rent increase and bills, we pray we survive it.

I was just thinking out loud. For someone earning 100k salary monthly, staying in 650k-800k house, what's your strategy towards your house rent payment?
Knowing that you still have more bills to cater for monthly.

How do you save? What percentage do you save in a month?

With the little Salary been paid, Salary earners, how do you plan towards your current house rent payment?

A colleague was joking telling us, he's considering relocating to the village to start farming and staying in a free family apartment........hmmmmm
Persons earning ₦100k per month and Annual House rent is ₦650- ₦1 Million definitely as side hustle or cutting corners..,

Well, for starters, i'll say, if your one month salary can't pay 50% of your house rent or 2 months can't cover your yearly rent, then you're simply foolish.

This principle of being able to pay 50% comfortably with your 1 month rent has always helped me ....

Its best to stay in a low brow, less expensive area that match your salary/income ....

Why would anyone earning 100k stay in a 650k per year apartment?

That is simply a free invitation for high blood pressure na cos everytime the agent or landlord calls to maybe ask some other stuffs, fear go dey catch u say maybe dem wan increase rent or want eject person cos of owed rents....

Every one is bashing OP but forget that rent has also gone up astronomically. My landlord increased by 40% this year and is already threatening further increases next year. So it's just the current situation of things 😞

A friend told me for those who work in the Civil Service, they don't live on their salary. They live on "Baba gb 'ope wa" some term for rubbing the hand of staff to get the needed access you need.
Civil servants in Nigeria hardly afford rent. Except you work in elite parastatals, you are on your own.
Working in ministries, you must collect for back or rub with pen.

Or have something doing by the side.

Mortgaging of house do exist in nigeria?
Johnson5258:
This is what I do, I have a yearly contribution that I'm doing, It could cover my rent of two years from just one catch out, so I get a number or month close to my rent expiration and pay when it's due. My wife has also been very helpful.

My advise for you is to start looking at how to buy your own house, even if it is mortgage, atleast you will not be afraid of increment and it's all yours.

Yes, plenty.
FG is giving out loan through the National Housing scheme and you can also get from commercial banks. Lotus bank has good rate.
