Are you a Nigerian living abroad and looking to invest in property back home? Whether it’s to prepare for your return, build generational wealth, or create passive income, buying property in Nigeria from overseas is one of the smartest moves you can make—if done right.

At Solap Signature Properties Ltd, we’ve worked with countless diaspora clients who’ve successfully secured smart, sustainable homes and estates in Nigeria from thousands of miles away. And in this guide, we’ll show you exactly how you can do it too—with zero stress and 100% peace of mind.

 

Step 1: Define Your Purpose & Budget

Before you start, ask yourself:

  • Are you buying to live in it later?

  • Is it for rental income or resale?

  • Do you want a built home or a plot to develop?

Once you’re clear on your “why,” set a realistic budget. Consider the exchange rate, transfer costs, and extra expenses like documentation, legal fees, or potential land surveys.

✅ Step 2: Choose the Right Location

Location is everything—especially in Nigeria. Popular areas for diaspora buyers include:

Lagos: Lekki, Ajah,  Ikoyi
Abuja: Karisha, Guzape, Dakwo

Go for fast-developing zones with  solid infrastructure, high ROI, and low legal risk.

 

Step 3: Work With a Trusted Developer (Not Just an Agent)

Here’s where many diaspora investors get scammed—relying on unverified agents or “family friends.” You need a registered, transparent developer with verifiable projects.

Why Solap Signature Properties Ltd?

  1. We’re led by professional architects and engineers.
  2. We provide fully verified titles (C of O, Governor’s Consent, etc.)
  3. We offer video walkthroughs, drone inspections & regular updates.
  4. We cut post-construction maintenance costs by 50% with smart designs.
  5. We cater specifically to diaspora needs with virtual processes

 

✅ Step 4: Verify the Property Documents

Do not pay for any land or property without verifying:

  1. Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) or Governor’s Consent.
  2. Survey Plan & Layout Approval.
  3. Deed of Assignment or Contract of Sale

Engage a lawyer to conduct a search at the Land Registry, or request that your developer provide proof of legal ownership and approvals.

 

✅ Step 5: Request Virtual Tours & Progress Updates

With modern tech, you can now view properties from anywhere in the world. At Solap Signature Properties Ltd, we provide:

  • Virtual tours via WhatsApp, Zoom, or Google Meet.
  • Drone footage of your plot or house.
  • Progress updates as construction unfolds

This transparency ensures you’re always in the loop—even while abroad.

 

✅ Step 6: Understand the Payment Plans & Transfer Process

Diaspora buyers often prefer installment payment plans—and that’s where developers like Solap Signature offer flexible, interest-friendly options.

We also help guide you through  international transfers, working with trusted financial platforms to minimize transaction delays or overcharges.

 

✅ Step 7: Secure Your Investment

Once payment is complete:

  • Get receipts and contracts signed.
  • Request scanned and hard copies of documents.
  • Consider giving a Power of Attorney to a trusted legal rep in Nigeria for local documentation and signing

You can also register your title fully to reduce risk of future disputes.

 

✅ Bonus Tips for Diaspora Buyers:

  • Avoid “too good to be true” offers—always check credentials.
  • Don’t rush—due diligence is more important than urgency.
  • Ask for referrals, reviews, or testimonials.
  • Invest with developers who value professionalism and integrity
