The most abused land scam gimmick today you hear from real estate companies, agents or marketers of land especially in Ibeju Lekki today is "EXCISION IN PROCESS".

Whether they say it innocently or negligently, it's still a scam and buyers should beware of...

There are so many lovely properties out there for sale from N10 Million upwards to accommodate every wallet size but just like Omo-onile lands, I am beginning to see a proliferation of fraudulent property developers building dubious houses for sale.

The concerns associated with buying a piece of land in Lagos today are too...
