Frequently Asked Questions
Why is title verification important?
Title verification confirms that the seller has legal ownership of the property and that it is free from encumbrances, disputes, or government acquisition. Without it, you risk purchasing a property with a defective title.
What documents should I check before buying property in Nigeria?
Key documents include the Certificate of Occupancy (C of O), survey plan, deed of assignment, and evidence of payment of ground rent. We conduct a comprehensive check of all relevant documents.
Can you help with property disputes?
Yes. We handle landlord-tenant disputes, boundary disputes, and property ownership disputes through negotiation, mediation, or litigation as appropriate.
