HOUSE HUNTING IN LEKKI LAGOS: Price Of Rent On The Island + living on the island isn’t for the poor

[@chisomokafor7839]

hi Maryam. I’m look out for a self con BQ for 1m total package. Which area would you Advice I check out ?

[@maryamrumi]

Hi Chisom, since you said total package I’m guessing you mean inclusive of agency and all and I would also assume you mean on the island. With that price I would say you should check from Osapa to Chevron on both sides of the road. The specific areas include Igboefon, Jakande, Ologolo, New road and so on. Bear in mind that prices would vary depending on what kind of house you are looking for either a new house/newly renovated or old, probably in a gated estate/ serviced house or not, good access roads etc. If you concentrate on those areas listed, you would find something to your liking though you might have to inspect lots of properties and might get frustrated along the line, I wish you best of luck 🤞 in your search.

Please do ma. I'm currently in Benin city, but looking to relocate to lagos in January. Never travelled to lagos before so these videos are gold to me. I've been binge watching non stop!

Maryam, this 4 Bedroom terrace duplex is one of the best well built houses I have seen been shown in recent times. I hope to come around these areas in the nearest future

[@maryamrumi]

True, a couple of people seem to like it too.

[@yetundeduze906]

I appreciated this video soooo much! God bless!

Amen, thank you so much

[@Abbienaija16]

Hi, really appreciate you doing this video. Could you please share the contacts for the agents for the 3/4bed terraces on orchid road and the last 3 bed apt. Thank youu

[@maryamrumi]

Hi, so I searched for the apartments myself and didn’t use any agents so I don’t have an agents contact but the 3bed apartment is just opposite Pottershand school on orchid road. If you need an agent, you can just access most of the other estates and look out for available apartments. There is always a banner with the contact of the buildings agent on the gate or fence , you can ask to see other apartments they have after giving them a description of what you want, I hope you find a suitable and nice place.

It’s on orchid road, I don’t know which house you are referring to exactly, since I showed a couple

[@ayobami5774]

@@maryamrumi the houses look all the same and the only orchid road I know is in Singapore, how do I get one of these houses?

[@maryamrumi]

@ayobami5774 oh yeah houses look similar here In Lagos especially on the island. So this orchid road is in lekki Lagos, just by the second toll gate.

[@ifeomajoy6819]

Maryam please I'm looking for House 3bedroom apartment Please I need your advice where to go and get what I want for please

[@maryamrumi]

Hi @ifeomajoy6819 so it depends on your budget firstly and also if you want to be on the mainland or island

[@maryamrumi]

Accessibility in terms of location also matters, that’s what determines the rent this days, with other charges like estates, service charge etc

[@maryamrumi]

What budget are you working with?

[@phollabbyajayi8775]

Many of these apartments are really tiny in size, how come builders become so greedy?

[@maryamrumi]

Tiny and expensive, the prices don’t match the houses.

[@littlejs3246]

Sorry 3.5 million for buying or rent??

[@maryamrumi]

Lol for rent of cause, can that amount even buy a house😳

[@godsfavour1491]

A year or month please

[@maryamrumi]

Hi, the payment is annually.
