A Simple Rule for Nigerian Property Buyers: The Documents Must Agree
A property deal can go wrong before the buyer signs anything. In Nigeria, the warning signs often sit inside documents that look ordinary: C of O, survey plan, deed of assignment, allocation letter, receipt, or sale agreement.
The rule is simple: do not check each document alone. Compare them together.
If the owner name changes, the plot number shifts, the land size differs, or the seller cannot explain the chain of ownership, slow down. It may not prove fraud immediately, but it is enough reason to verify before money moves.
