Profit Breakdown
Includes ~12% upfront acquisition costs (stamp duty, consent, legal, agent). Past appreciation is not a guarantee of future performance.
A total annual ROI (combining rental yield and capital appreciation) of 12-20% is considered strong for Nigerian real estate. Cash-on-cash returns of 6-10% are typical for Lagos and Abuja buy-to-let properties. Returns vary significantly by location, property type, and market conditions.
Nigerian property prices, particularly in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, have historically appreciated at 5-15% per year in growth phases. However, this is not consistent — economic downturns, currency devaluation, and oversupply can cause stagnation or declines. Always stress-test your investment with conservative appreciation assumptions.
Include: property management fees (5-10% of rent), maintenance and repairs budget (1-2% of property value per year), insurance, service charges, ground rent, income tax on rental income (taxable as personal income in Nigeria), void periods, and any mortgage interest if leveraged.
Yes. Rental income is taxable as part of your total income under Nigeria's Personal Income Tax Act. Capital gains from property sales are subject to Capital Gains Tax at 10% in Nigeria. If investing through a company, Corporate Income Tax (30%) applies. Always consult a tax adviser.
Emerging growth corridors typically offer the best combined returns. Areas like Ibeju-Lekki, Epe, and Ajah in Lagos; Gwarinpa and Lugbe in Abuja; and industrial zones in Port Harcourt have attracted significant investment. Established prime areas (VI, Ikoyi, Maitama) offer capital preservation and lower yields.
