Location vs. Price: Which One Should You Focus On When Buying Land in Nigeria?




Location vs. Price: Which One Should You Focus On When Buying Land in Nigeria?
One of the biggest dilemmas land buyers in Nigeria face is choosing between location and price. Should you go for a location with a high price tag or settle for a cheaper plot in a less popular area? The answer depends on your investment goal. Let’s break it down:
1. Location: The King of Real Estate
In real estate, the saying goes: “Location is everything.” This is especially true in Nigeria. A land in a developing area like Owerri, Awka, Asaba etc may appreciate faster than a cheaper plot in a remote village with no infrastructure or development prospects.
Benefits of prioritizing location:
• High appreciation potential
• Better resale value
• Access to amenities (roads, electricity, schools, markets)
• Attracts investors and developers
• Ideal for residential or commercial purposes
However: lands in some areas are often expensive and may require a larger upfront investment.
2. Price: The Gateway for Entry-Level Investors
Focusing on price makes sense for first-time investors or those working with a tight budget. Nigeria has many low-cost land options in rural or emerging areas. These may not have top-tier infrastructure today, but with the right foresight, they can become goldmines in the future.
Benefits of prioritizing price:
• Affordable entry into real estate
• Opportunity to buy in bulk (land banking)
• Lower financial risk
• Possibility to hold long-term and sell after development catches up
However: low prices often mean slower appreciation, limited access to amenities, and higher development risk.
3. The Smart Investor's Approach: Balance Both
The key is to balance location and price based on your investment goal:
• For short-term gain or development: focus more on location.
• For long-term investment or land banking: prioritize price, but choose areas with growth potential (e.g., near expressways, new developments, industrial zones).

 Think Land is Expensive? Read This!

If you think land is expensive today, wait until tomorrow. The truth is, land will never be as cheap as it is right now. And the most painful part? Those who ignore this fact often end up buying it later at a much higher cost.
Let’s face it, in Nigeria, land is not just a piece of earth, it’s a store of wealth, a source of power, and a legacy for future generations. From Awka to Owerri, Asaba to Enugu, the story is the same, land appreciates faster than most other assets.
Yet, many Nigerians keep postponing land purchases, thinking the price will somehow go down. It won’t.
