🔥 My Take (Editor’s Note)
Buyers are diversifying. While Lagos and Abuja remain top spots, cities like Ibadan, Asaba, and Abeokuta are rising stars. If you’re a developer or investor, these are the places to scout before prices rise by Q4 2025.
Expect more land flipping, co-investment platforms, and fractional ownership tools to rise in these areas.
