THE SMART WAY TO BUY LAND

THE SMART WAY TO BUY LAND

Last week, a middle-aged lady walked into Apex Chambers with a curious story. She had religiously saved for years, determined to buy her own piece of land in Port Harcourt.

When she had saved enough and found a piece of land, fear gripped her. She had heard too many horror stories of buyers being duped, land grabbers invading properties and endless land disputes.

Just when she was about to back out, she consulted us.

We showed her that buying land/building does not have to be a nightmare. With the right steps, it can be simple and secure.

Start with engaging an experienced Property Lawyer to help you do the following:

– Physical Inspection – Visit the site. Never buy blind.

– Demand Proper Documentation – Ask for the Survey Plan and Deed of Conveyance.

– Confirm Ownership – Ensure you are dealing with the rightful owner.

– Conduct a Complete Land Search – Uncover any issues or disputes.

– Have a comprehensive Deed of Conveyance prepared for you.

– Perfect Your Ownership – Register your ownership with the Government to secure your legal recognition.

Then take physical possession immediately by fencing the land, having a caretaker or installing a visible signpost.

Remember, only an experienced Property Lawyer understands how to do due diligence (investigations) and spot red flags others miss.

In the end she confidently bought a land with a big smile.

Fear lost, knowledge won.
