Steps to Buying Land Safely in Nigeria

Steps to Buying Land Safely in Nigeria

Buying land is one of the smartest investments you can ever make, but it must be done wisely to avoid falling into the wrong hands. Here are the key steps to buying land safely:

1. Work with a Trusted Real Estate Consultant;

The first and most important step is to partner with a reliable consultant. A trusted consultant saves you from stress, helps you avoid scams, and ensures you’re buying a property with genuine documents and clear titles.

2. Inspect the Land Physically;

Never rely on pictures alone. Visit the site, see the land yourself, and confirm accessibility, location, and environment.

3. Secure Your Ownership with Proper Documentation;

After payment, collect your receipt, deed of assignment, and survey plan. Later, you can process your Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) or Governor’s Consent for stronger legal backing.

4. Negotiate and Agree on Terms;

Work with your consultant to negotiate the price and terms. Don’t rush, clarity on payment structure, development fees, and other charges is key.

Buying land doesn’t have to be risky, if you follow the right process and work with a professional you can trust.
