Let’s be honest, the idea of buying property in Lagos can feel like entering a jungle… with a blindfold on.
There’s the excitement of owning land, building wealth, and securing your future. But there’s also the whisper of fear at the back of your mind…
- “What if it’s a scam?”
- “What if I buy and regret it?”
- “What if I get duped by an agent in native attire and fine grammar?”
At Desh Nautilus, we hear you. We’ve been buyers too. And we’ve helped hundreds move from property fears to property ownership with peace of mind.
So today, let’s talk about the top 5 fears every buyer faces, and how to shake them off like Lagos traffic on a good day.
😨 Fear #1: “What If It’s Fake Land?”
This is the heavyweight champion of all property fears in Nigeria. The fear of buying land that doesn’t “exist” or that exists in 6 different people’s names.
Solution:
Don’t just rely on sweet talk or pretty flyers. Ask for title documents like C of O, Governor’s Consent, or Deed of Assignment, and verify them with a trusted legal source.
At Desh Nautilus, every property we offer – including Platinum Square, is title-verified and backed by documentation you can hold, see, and sleep well with.
😬 Fear #2: “What If I Can’t Trust the Developer?”
Sometimes it’s not about the land. It’s about the people selling it. Many buyers ask:
“Who are these people?”
“Will they disappear after payment?”
Solution:
Buy from developers who have a name, a face, an address, and a story. Transparency is key. If you can’t visit their office or see past projects, take your money and run.
With us, you’re welcome to visit our office in Lekki Peninsula Scheme II, inspect Platinum Square, and ask us the hard questions.
🧾 Fear #3: “What If It’s Too Expensive or I Regret It?”
Everyone wants a good deal. But fear of overspending can paralyze you.
Solution:
Do your homework. Compare prices. Factor in location, title, development potential, and amenities. Platinum Square, for example, is surrounded by top estates like Royal Gardens and Urban Prime, with growth on all sides.
A property with Governor’s Consent in that axis? You’re not spending, you’re investing.
🏗️ Fear #4: “What If I Buy and Can’t Develop It Soon?”
This one’s common:
“What if I buy and it just sits there?”
“Will people think I’m unserious?”
Solution:
Property is not a race. Owning land is step one. Development is step two, and it comes in your own time. But land appreciates whether you build today or in 2 years.
At Desh Nautilus, we encourage you to own the land first, and then plan at your pace. That’s why we offer properties like Platinum Square, where the environment is already thriving.
😥 Fear #5: “What If I Get It Wrong?”
Let’s admit it, buying property is a big decision. What if you pick the wrong place? Or find something better after paying?
Solution:
That’s why you don’t go alone. Talk to professionals. Get clarity before commitment. At Desh Nautilus, we walk with you from inquiry to inspection, documents to decision, so you move confidently, not blindly.
