Buying land in Lagos (or anywhere in Nigeria) is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. Yet, many investors ask:
👉 “Do I really need a lawyer when buying land, or can I save money and handle it myself?”
The truth? A lawyer is not optional**—they’re your shield against costly mistakes and scams.
✅ Why You Must Involve a Lawyer in Land Transactions
1️⃣ Title Verification
Lawyers conduct due diligence at the Lagos State Land Registry to confirm whether the land has C of O, Gazette, Excision, or Governor’s Consent.
They help you avoid lands under government acquisition.
2️⃣ Fraud Prevention
Fake documents and multiple sales of the same plot are common.
A lawyer knows how to spot red flags and confirm authenticity.
3️⃣ Drafting & Reviewing Contracts
Lawyers prepare the Deed of Assignment,Contract of Sale, and ensure terms favor you.
They protect you from hidden clauses that could cause future disputes.
4️⃣ Processing Governor’s Consent
If you’re buying from someone who already has a title, your lawyer ensures the transaction is legally recognized by securing Governor’s Consent.
5️⃣ Dispute Resolution
If ownership issues arise in the future, your lawyer stands as your legal backup.
⚠️ What Happens If You Skip a Lawyer?
You risk buying land with no valid title.
You may fall victim to Omo-Onile harassment.
You could lose your money completely to a real estate scam.
📌 Final Verdict
Hiring a lawyer in land transactions is not an expense—it’s an investment. For as little as 5–10% of your land cost, you gain 100% peace of mind.
🚀 Pro Tip for Investors
Always combine a trusted real estate consultant + property lawyer to secure safe investments in Lagos.
