This article has been inspired by a true life experience concerning a brief I am presently handling for a client. This particular client came to me in respect of a dispute concerning the distribution of his father’s property that died intestate. The deceased had lots of landed property but failed to write a Will or instruction as to how the property is to be shared after his death. This dispute over the property has been going on for months and has caused a lot of “bad blood” between siblings and family members....... http://www.ibejulekkilawyer.com/how-important-is-estate-planning/.

Please permit me to tell you a rather short story before I conclude. For over 14 years, I have lived and stayed along this axis. Back then, you could count the number of modern houses on this axis. My family and I stayed farther down along Sangotedo area. The distance to my house and the next house was miles away not to talk of a shopping mall or a market. Then, I bought my land for 60,000.00 for a plot….. yes it was ridiculously cheap but development and civilization was seriously lacking. The estate agent advised me to invest in more lands but because of the area shortcomings as at that time, I was reluctant to. After so much persuasion from this agent who was and still is my friend, I decided to buy another two plots of land very close to the first land. Sincerely, I felt like I have thrown my money into the bush after I considered all the possibilities of development. My wife and I decided to leave the land vacant for a while on the grounds that building on it then would be another waste of money because nobody would want to rent a house in an underdeveloped and uncivilized area. As days turned to months and months to years and more years.......... http://www.ibejulekkilawyer.com/secrets-of-making-money-by-investing-in-a-vacant-land-part1/.
