How can I make my property more attractive to buyers?

De-clutter, repaint, make minor repairs, and ensure the property is clean and well-lit. Use high-quality photos and highlight selling points like location, security, and amenities. Consider staging the property for viewings. The Property Experts allows you to showcase listings with detailed descriptions and media.

How do I find the best rental property in my budget?

Start by setting a realistic budget based on your income and expenses, then use filters on platforms like The Property Experts to narrow down options by location, price, and amenities. It’s essential to compare listings, schedule inspections, and ask questions about included utilities, maintenance, and neighborhood safety. Online reviews and local agents can also provide context. Ensure that the landlord is reputable before signing any agreement.

How do I determine my budget for buying a home?

To determine your budget, consider your income, debts, and savings. It is also important to get pre-approved for a mortgage to understand how much you can borrow.

What is the process of selling a home?

Selling a home involves preparing your home for sale, setting a competitive price, marketing the property, showing the home to potential buyers, negotiating offers, and closing the sale.

What mortgage options are available in Nigeria?

Options include commercial bank mortgages, Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) loans, and cooperative housing schemes. Some developers also offer in-house financing. Mortgage tenure ranges from 5–25 years, depending on your income and creditworthiness. Requirements typically include down payments and proof of income.

What are the ongoing costs of owning a home?

These include utilities, repairs, property taxes, waste management, service charges (in estates), and insurance. Budgeting for annual maintenance like painting and plumbing is important. Some locations also require security levies. The Property Experts blog offers cost breakdown guides.

How do I verify if an agent is legitimate?

Check if the agent is registered with relevant regulatory bodies like the Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN) or the Estate Surveyors and Valuers Registration Board of Nigeria (ESVARBON). Ask for their business registration with the CAC (Corporate Affairs Commission), and request references from past clients. The Property Experts also verifies agents on the platform, so listings with verified badges are a good indicator.

What questions should I ask a real estate agent before hiring them?

Ask about their experience, area of specialization, licensing, recent deals, and commission structure. Also inquire about their marketing strategy, connections to other professionals (lawyers, valuers), and how they handle negotiations. These insights help you assess their expertise and transparency.

Can I buy property without an agent?

Yes, but it requires due diligence. Without an agent, you must verify property documents, handle negotiations, and navigate legal requirements yourself. Platforms like The Property Experts can help by connecting you to verified listings and legal experts.

How do I list my property for sale/rent?

Log in and go to “List a Property.” Upload property details, high-resolution images, price, and contact info. Verified agents and individuals will be asked to submit ownership or representation documentation. Listings go live after review by our moderation team.

Can I save favorite properties for later viewing?

Yes, once logged in, click the bookmark icon on any listing to save it to your dashboard. You can access your saved properties anytime and compare them based on features, location, or price. This feature is synced across your devices.

How do I contact property owners directly?

Each listing has a contact section where you can reach the owner or agent via phone, WhatsApp, or email. For security, some contacts may be masked until user verification is completed. Always use the platform’s messaging tool for first contact.

How often is your blog updated with new content?

We publish new content weekly, including expert interviews, how-to articles, investment tips, and legal updates. You can subscribe for alerts or follow us on social media for highlights. We also accept guest posts from certified professionals in real estate.
