Buying land or property is one of the most important financial decisions you will ever make. Yet, in Nigeria, many buyers fall into the trap of rushing payments without proper due diligence — often leading to regret, disputes, or outright loss of funds.
At Favourmiz Realty, we strongly advise that no matter how attractive the offer sounds, a site inspection should always come before any payment. Here’s why 👇
🔎 1. Confirm the Physical Location
A site inspection allows you to see exactly where the property is located. Many buyers have paid for “prime plots” only to later discover they are in remote or swampy areas that don’t align with their expectations.
➡ With an inspection, you can judge road accessibility, neighborhood development, and overall convenience.
📜 2. Verify Property Boundaries
Estate layouts and surveys can sometimes be confusing. By visiting the land in person, you confirm:
- Plot demarcation
- Actual size (vs what was advertised)
- Boundaries in relation to adjoining plots
➡ This protects you from disputes with neighbors or estate developers in the future.
🏗 3. Inspect Infrastructure & Development Level
Marketing brochures may promise “good roads and drainage,” but only a physical inspection reveals the truth. During inspection, you can check:
- Perimeter fencing
- Gatehouse and security presence
- Road network
- Drainage systems
- Electricity supply
➡ These determine whether the land is truly worth the asking price.
⚖️ 4. Avoid Falling Victim to Scams
Unfortunately, land scams are common in Nigeria. Unscrupulous agents may show you fake documents or sell the same plot to multiple buyers.
➡ A site visit (especially with a trusted real estate company like Favourmiz Realty) ensures you are dealing with the rightful owners and legitimate titles.
💰 5. Protect Your Investment
Buying land without inspection is like investing blindly. Since land is a long-term investment, it’s only wise to see, confirm, and be satisfied before committing your hard-earned money.
➡ Site inspection gives peace of mind and ensures your investment is safe, transparent, and future-proof.
🌟 Final Thoughts
A property may look perfect on paper, but only a site inspection can confirm its true value. At Favourmiz Realty, we prioritize transparency, integrity, and client satisfaction. That’s why we organize free inspections for all our prospective buyers — so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
