Real estate investment remains one of the safest and most profitable ways to build generational wealth in Nigeria. However, many investors make the mistake of pursuing this journey alone, missing the immense benefits of involving their families.
Involving your family in land investment builds unity and helps secure your legacy. Here are practical ways to get your family involved in land investment:
1. Start with Financial Education.
Most Nigerian families were not raised with investment conversations around the dinner table. Take the lead in educating your spouse, children, or extended family on;
•The importance of land as an appreciating asset
•The risks and how to mitigate them
•Success stories of families who built wealth through land
•Use simple terms and relatable examples. Host mini family meetings, share videos, or invite your trusted realtor for a quick session.
2. Set Collective Goals.
Instead of buying land individually, why not come together to set family investment goals?
For example:
“We want to buy 3 plots in Owerri by the end of 2025.”
“Let’s save towards a family farm in Awka.”
This helps distribute financial responsibility and gives everyone a sense of ownership and purpose.
3. Pool Resources Together.
Not everyone may have the full capital for a land purchase, but families can pool funds to achieve common investment goals. For instance:
•Each sibling contributes ₦50,000 monthly
•Parents support with part of the legal or documentation fees
This model works well with proper structure and transparency, use cooperative style documentation or create a family savings account.
4. Involve Your Spouse in Documentation.
Ensure your partner is aware of and involved in land documentation processes. This includes:
•Names on the title document (if desired)
•Knowledge of the land location
•Access to receipts, survey plans, and allocation letters
In the unfortunate event of death or absence, this protects your family's inheritance and avoids legal battles.
5. Assign Roles in the Process.
Make land investment a joint effort by assigning specific roles:
•One person handles due diligence
•Another negotiates with the land vendor or developer
•Another keeps track of payments and documents
This builds trust, reduces mistakes, and teaches everyone valuable skills.
6. Buy with Future Family Use in Mind.
When buying land, think long-term:
•Can this become a family house?
•Can it be a family retreat or holiday spot?
•Could it be a joint commercial property for rent or lease?
Having a shared vision keeps everyone invested emotionally and financially.
7. Expose Younger Family Members Early.
Teach your children or younger siblings the value of land early:
•Take them on site inspections
•Involve them in online property research
•Let them attend real estate seminars with you
This builds their interest and mindset for future investment success.
8. Celebrate Investment Milestones Together.
When a land deal is successful, make it a family celebration. Whether it’s a simple thank you meal or a family photo on the new site, it reinforces the culture of investing and creates lasting memories.
