Excerpt: Land prices in Enugu have recorded significant growth in recent years. With the 2027 general elections approaching, now is a good time to understand what is driving property prices and why prospective buyers should start exploring their land investment options before prices change further.
Imagine having ₦10 million ready to buy land today, only to discover that your preferred location costs ₦20 million when you finally decide to buy.
This is why prospective property buyers should start paying attention to the market as Nigeria approaches the 2027 general elections.
Let’s look at what has been happening in Enugu.
According to figures reported by BusinessDay, land around the Nike Lake Resort axis that sold for ₦8 million–₦11 million in 2023/2024 was reportedly selling for ₦20 million–₦25 million by 2025.
Also, a 2024 property market report by BuyLetLive recorded an average land-price growth rate of 32.13% for Enugu State.
These figures show how much property prices can change within a few years.
What could affect land prices?
Elections are not the only factor. Other things that influence property prices include:
Road and infrastructure development.
Increasing demand for land.
Rising construction and development costs.
Expansion of residential areas.
As these factors change, the cost of buying land in certain locations may also change.
What should you do?
If buying land is on your mind, start looking at available options now.
You don’t have to rush into buying, but you should know what your budget can get you today.
Research the location, verify the documents, and make sure the property fits your investment plans.
