How can first-time apartment buyers avoid being overcharged or misled by agents?

November 20, 2025by Flinx Realty0

First-time buyers often enter the Nigerian real estate market with enthusiasm—but that enthusiasm can attract opportunistic agents. Many are overcharged, misled about unit size, or promised amenities that never materialize.

To avoid this:

  1. Do your research: Compare market prices in your preferred area. Understanding typical costs gives you leverage.
  2. Verify the developer: Check past projects, legal standing, and reputation. Scams often come from unknown or unverified developers.
  3. Demand transparency: Request a full breakdown of costs, including fees, insurance, and projected maintenance.
  4. Track progress: If buying off-plan, ensure you can monitor construction updates.

Flinx Realty eliminates these risks. Every unit is priced fairly, insured, and tracked in real time. Buyers are never left guessing or overpaying. Agents and developers work within a framework of trust and transparency, so first-time buyers can focus on building wealth instead of stress.

For first-time buyers in Lagos or Abuja, partnering with a reliable developer like Flinx Realty ensures investments are secure, predictable, and fully protected—exactly how property ownership should feel.
