BEFORE YOU BUY LAND OR BUILDING, GET A PROPERTY LAWYER TO INVESTIGATE IT
Every person who wants to buy land/house should learn this golden rule: your Property Lawyer must visit and verify the land before you pay one naira.
Real estate fraudsters in Nigeria have grown smarter and the only way to outsmart them is through legal due diligence (fact-finding) by an experienced Property Lawyer.
A Property Lawyer does not rely on promises, documents, boasts or the seller’s words.
He relies on law and evidence. Before you buy land/building, he goes to the appropriate authorities to confirm ownership, verifies the land documents/survey plan, traces the history of the land and inspects the property to ensure it matches the documents presented.
He checks for issues, multiple sales or government acquisition/interest, all the silent things that buyers never see coming.
Buying land without this process is like being addicted to betting; it may look fine at first, but disaster will surely come.
That is why every wise buyer allows the Property Lawyer to take the lead.
At Apex Chambers, we handle every client’s land/building purchase passionately.
We do due diligence, verify all documents and claims and prepare solid purchase documents that legally transfer ownership to you.
In land/house buying transactions, the safest early step you can ever take is to send your Property Lawyer before you send your money.
