Over 35% of our transactions in 2024 involved buyers based outside Nigeria — primarily in the UK, USA, Canada, and UAE. Diaspora buyers are one of the most underserved groups in Nigerian real estate: high motivation, strong purchasing power, but limited access to verified information and trustworthy agents.
The Diaspora Buyer’s Biggest Risks
- Title fraud — purchasing a property with no valid legal title
- Misrepresentation — properties described very differently from reality
- Currency loss — poor timing or unofficial transfer channels
- Abandoned projects — off-plan purchases where the developer fails to deliver
