January 22, 2026 market brief. This Nigerian real estate update tracks Abuja through the lens of verified supply, pricing, financing, and delivery signals.

Demand remains strongest where buyers can verify title, access roads, estate services, and developer track record before committing capital.

• Ask for proof of land title, approved layout, survey plan, and building approvals before deposit.
• Compare total acquisition cost, including development levy, legal fees, service charges, and finishing cost.
• Use written milestones and independent inspections for off-plan purchases.

Buyer note: Confirm title documents, delivery timelines, service-charge assumptions, and payment milestones before making any deposit. Diaspora buyers should use documented escrow and independent legal review.
