Introduction
Let’s be honest; having money in Nigeria feels like trying to hold water with your hands. No matter how hard you try, the value just keeps dripping away and slipping away, all thanks to inflation. Even your go-to lunch spot doesn’t give you the same quantity anymore. Meanwhile, that money you’ve been stacking? Quietly losing its worth as the clock ticks.
That’s why more sharp-minded Nigerians are ditching the “save and hope” approach for something smarter: off-plan property investment.
What’s the move?
Instead of waiting till a building is fully done (and priced at a premium), they’re buying into well-located apartments while they’re still under construction. This means getting property at today’s prices and enjoying the value tomorrow. In real terms, it’s like buying low in a rising market.
The best part? It’s not just for the ultra-rich. Flexible payment plans and entry-level units mean you can start where you are and scale as you grow. It’s real estate made realistic and reachable.
Here’s why it works
Off-plan properties, especially in high-demand areas like Yaba and Surulere, offer built-in appreciation. As construction progresses and demand increases, so does the value of your unit. You’re not just protecting your money; you’re positioning for much higher returns.
The Perks
- Rental income
- Capital gains.
- Portfolio growth.
Think of it this way
₦20 million today might barely cover your project next year. But that same ₦20 million in an off-plan investment today could turn into a property worth ₦25 to ₦30 million by completion.
This is a real inflation hack, and that’s what more Gen Z and millennial Nigerians are waking up to.
While others are watching prices rise and the Naira shrink, a few are making bold, intentional moves by turning their cash into concrete and concrete into control. Of course, control is cash, if you think about it.
