House rent collection is obviously a problem in Nigeria. A good number of tenants don't pay their rent as at when due. It's a well known fact that this has created friction between a number of tenants and landlords and landladies. So guys apart from the normal referencing process, what can be done to find some harmony between tenants and landlords/ladies? I recommend we abandon yearly subsequent rent payment and resort to monthly or three monthly or six monthly and give the tenant the option to decide which of the options resonates with their cash-flow. So after the initial payment of one year rent, subsequent payments should be from the above option. The main reason for delayed or non payment of rent has to do with cash-flow miss-match. So a tenant receives income monthly and we expect them to pay rent yearly. What do you guys think? I'm looking to experimenting this for three years. What is wrong with this option? |

diordaves: Good one there. This has been my argument all along. Does not really know why Landlords in Lagos want a 1 year rent. It is killing. You collect salary monthly and you are expected to save 1 year rent in this recession. One thing that the Landlords do not know is that when rent is collected monthly, they will end up making more money. Why do i say so?. If you tell me to pay N500,000.00 for instance for a 3-bedroom flat, i will likely argue and we go back and forth negotiating but if you tell me to pay N50,000.00 monthly, i will likely not argue as i see it as being affordable by me. At the end of one year, i would have paid N600,000.00 which is more. I pay for DSTV monthly which i do not feel. Imagine if DSTV has told me to pay the one year amount once, i will hesitate in paying. 5 Likes |

diordaves: your suggestion is very good but it has been practiced in the time past and it didn't work. An average Nigerian find it difficult to pay their house rent. some people will always stress the hell out of the landlord before he pays, the people who do this most are business men. when you visit Onitsha you will understand what I mean. so that was the reason yearly payment was introduced to reduce the stress that is involved with house rent collection and also for the money to come in huge for the benefit of the landlord. 1 Like |

engrnoble: But don't you think the yearly collection has increased the stress? Do you sincerely believe a tenant will be putting aside money monthly to meet up the yearly payment? If you sincerely hope that tenants will be putting money aside to match when their rent is due, why not have them pay that money into your account as monthly payments? A bad tenant is a bad tenant, but where the tenant is good, can landlords/ladies make it easier for tenants to meet their commitment in terms of timely rent payment by reducing the hefty burden of yearly payment? I've looked at this yearly payment method, the more I look at it, the more it doesn't make sense. Am I missing something? 1 Like |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Nobody: 8:04pm On Mar 15, 2017 |
yak: I think so but you may have to get creative with the 4th bedroom, maybe do a small master bedroom penthouse. I actually like the small size because it'll save you money. |
