It is the duty of the landlord to pay the lawyer and not the tenant since the landlord is the one employing the service of a lawyer.

Wrong practice have been normalised for too long.
Exactly

The additional N350,000 added to the rent is likely to be for Agency, Agreement and refundable deposit.
Now that he has given them his house without agreement and caution, hope he will not complain if something is damaged tomorrow? Secondly, whenever there is any trouble with the tenant, hope he will also not call the agent to intervene?
The truth is that the additional fees are for the professionals he engaged or how does he intend to pay for the services of the Agent that brought the tenant and the lawyer that will prepare the agreement? The caution deposit is for a security that the landlord will keep to be refunded whenever the tenant is moving out if nothing is damaged.
An agent sighted.

Unless you don’t stay in Nigeria, agent business ends once house is rented or sold, my guess is you mistake it for lawyer/house caretaker.

Let’s commend the landlord, it’s not easy seeing good people these days

What's the right amount payable for all these charges upon the N600k initially mentioned by the landlord?

You’re talking nonsense. You’re definitely an agent that’s why you’re pained cos where will a landlord aand tenant have problems and the landlord will go and complain to the agent, if you’re not living in a shantytown.

An agent that has never built a house before will know how to manage it better than the landlord. The way some people reason is mind boggling

Agency is 10%
Legal fees is 10%
Let’s say caution is 100k =220k
What’s the remaining 130k for ? Nonsense greedy wicked Nigerians

People gift money. I'm not doubting that. But the story up there na lie.

The house owner is a business person. If the story said he told the couple to pay 600k, that's more believable. But like always because of the hate for house agents, people will run along with the story to claim some imaginary victory. Hate on house agents is justified though.
And you know this because he told you so? Not everyone who owns a house depends on the rent they get from it or sees it as a business, so I don't know how offering his house below the initial amount makes the story unbelievable, some landlords even did that during the COVID-19 crisis just to help people. A man in my area who has 4 houses rents them out for only 250k (3-bedroom flat), while other landlords here rent out theirs for twice that amount

What if I tell you agents are the reason why most house are yet to be occupied by tenant.
Once go for an accommodation, I was taken through 3 agents on a single house plus the caretaker and each of them expecting there on settlement, on meeting with the landlord he was surprised by the amount fixed on the house by the agents claiming no wonder the house is yet to be occupied

It happened though that was not a spoiler but the landlord reduce the 2 bed room flat rent by more than 70%, and even said they can pay anytime.


It was base on the personality of the guy, and he was newly planning for his wedding, which I also attended as a close pal.


So, even if this is fake, I have witnessed a real one.


I also believe it happens elsewhere.

Agreed bros but my point be say landlord need find small thing for the agent as the agent don spend data, airtime, electricity and transport to get that tenant for the landlord.

Did you read the story? Agreement is between landlord and tenant not tenant and agent. Rent is 600k and he increased it with over 50%. Thereby making half of what the person that built the house is earning for a house he didn't build. Guy is a thief.
