WHEN YOU PAY FOR LAND/BUILDING IN NIGERIA WITHOUT A LAWYER, YOU MAY HAVE PAID FOR NOTHING
Ada saw a beautiful land with building on it. The price was attractive and the seller spoke confidently. She paid and was issued a receipt.
No Lawyer did checks and prepared land/house purchase documents. No investigation was done.
Five months later, a company surfaced with registered legal ownership documents. Theirs was solid, verifiable and legally enforceable.
Ada had worthless paper. The company had real ownership. It happens daily across Nigeria.
Property transactions are not based on trust or receipts, but on ownership. Land/building ownership is proven through proper legal investigation and documentation.
Before you pay even one Naira, a trusted Property and Real Estate Lawyer must conduct full checks: confirm who is the true owner, examine ownership history, verify that the property is free from Government acquisition and check for disputes or issues.
If the property passes these checks, he will prepare a legally sound Deed of Conveyance or Deed of Assignment which will transfer full ownership to you and legally secure your property investment.
The biggest mistake buyers make is involving a Lawyer late: after payment or problems. At that point, recovery is not certain and is expensive.
Be smart; get a Lawyer early.
Do not learn the hard way. Protect your land ownership.
