PROS AND CONS OF REAL ESTATE INVESTING IN NIGERIA

Pros

Cons


Pros

  • Less risk and volatility than the stock market
  • Can be a good source of cash flow
  • Properties deliver good long-term return

Cons

  • Not as much potential for aggressive return
  • Can require a lot of cash
  • Poor liquidity
  • Dealing with tenants and building issues can be difficult

More Pros of Real Estate Investing

  • Lower risk than the stock market: The housing market isn't subject to as much of the same volatility as the stock market. You don't have the same earning potential, but you can count on a steady incline most of the time.
  • Steady cash flow: When you have enough rental properties going, you can generate a reliable revenue stream for your business.
  • Good tax breaks: Real estate investors can deduct all sorts of expenses from their taxes, including mortgage interest, depreciation, property tax, and more.
  • Long-term returns will usually be positive: Over time, most properties will appreciate in value.

More Cons of Real Estate Investing

  • Potential returns aren't as high as the stock market: From 1991 to 2019, the S&P 500 gained over 600% while housing prices increased only about 160%.4 5
  • Real estate investment can be cash heavy: If you really want to get a steady income stream going, then you need enough cash on hand (whether your own or loaned) to pay for building improvements, maintenance, possibly a management company, and more.
  • Properties are not liquid investments: You can't turn a property into cash quickly like you can when you sell a stock.
  • Managing tenants and building maintenance is a challenge: Whether you hire a property manager or manage it yourself, running a property is full of unexpected problems with overdue rent, roof leaks, power outages, and more.Further reading investorjunkie

UNDERSTANDING RIGHT OF WAY/ SETBACK IN NIGERIA

Image
Definition of setback:  A setback is a minimum distance to be observed between the building line and property boundary, water bodies, right of way of infrastructure facilities, and utilities. Right of Way and Setback knowledge are important because they help you prevent building illegal structures (structures that do not conform with urban planning rules). You must ensure that you leave the proper setback for your property. We advise you to ask your surveyor to leave the correct setback when measuring and marking out your land. It may lead to your land not being the size you paid for but you will rest assured that your property is out of the government's right of way and safe from future demolition. Did you know that fences, landscaping, septic tanks, and various potential hazards or nuisances might be regulated and prohibited by setback lines? Depending on the jurisdiction, Setbacks along state, provincial, or federal highways may also be set by the laws of the state or province

LAND MEASUREMENT AND SIZE CONVERSION IN NIGERIA

Image
  INTRODUCTION TO LAND MEASUREMENT IN NIGERIA Do you have intentions of buying, selling, or investing in real estate in Nigeria but are confused when it comes to land sizes, land measurement, and Land comparison? Don’t worry; I am going to be explaining how you are going to get this once and for all without forgetting ever again. Yes, I mean ever again using this simple illustration or logic I got from and built on, from one of my real estate mentors. You don’t need to be a real estate expert before you understand how to accurately measure a parcel of land. Before you purchase a land or property in any estate location in Nigeria, be it in Lagos, Abeokuta, Ibadan, Abuja, etc. there are some basic terms used to denote land measurements you need to know as land measurement or sizes differs from state to state in Nigeria. You need to also know that there is no such thing as a perfect or standard plot or parcel of land because the earth (land) is not 100% positioned geometrically and

IDENTIFYING REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Image
  Real estate investments produce some of the highest yields of any investment type in Nigeria. In certain locations, we’ve seen property values multiply several times within a few years. The profits from these lands and buildings are hardly matched in other sectors. But these returns don’t just come from any real estate investment . There are specific characteristics you’ll have to look out for to find one that truly hits the jackpot. We will review five of these important features. If you have them in mind, you’ll be better able to  spot opportunities that are worth your money. Incoming Or Rapid Development Areas on the outskirts of established or fast-developing towns and cities are usually the next big real estate locations. There are multiple examples of this all over Nigeria, especially in cities like Lagos and Abuja. In Lagos, the Ibeju Lekki area was next in line after the property development frenzy around the Lekki axis. And in Abuja, some of the satellite districts on the ci
