8 Sure Ways To Sell Land Fast In Nigeria

1. Know your property

The first thing to do to successfully sell your land fast in Nigeria is to have a clear understanding of the land you want to sell.

You need to know the size of the land, the best purpose it can serve your potential buyers, and more.

Get a surveyor to measure the land and give you accurate data about your land that way you can be confident while marketing your land to buyers.

2. Set a realistic price

Having a clear understanding of the value of your land will help you set its price appropriately. You don’t want to scare your buyers away with price and at the same time, you don’t want to sell your land below its value price.

Check the price of other lands within the location of your land and get an idea of how much they are worth, which will give you an insight into the actual price of land within the location.

Moreover, a realistic price that is enticing will help you sell your land fast in Nigeria

3. Use word of Mouth

After getting a good knowledge of the land you want to sell and setting a price for it, it is time to spread the message that you have land for sale to people.

Word of mouth remains one of the oldest and surest ways to sell anything and when you creatively tell people about the land you are selling through word of mouth, it may surprise you to see how you may sell your land fast in Nigeria.

Talk to friends, family members, church members, colleagues in the office, and any person you know that can help you sell your land fast.

While talking to people about the land you are selling, let them know the advantage of buying land in the area where your land is located and also communicate the price advantage they will get by choosing your land over other lands.

4. Join a property WhatsApp group

I was surprised when I discovered how many properties that are sold in one of the property WhatsApp groups I joined recently.

Whatsapp groups bring people with the same interests together and one good thing about it is that some of the members may even know themselves in real life and this level of familiarity can help you sell your land fast in Nigeria.

So the task is for you to discover a property WhatsApp group where people may know you and trust that you will sell something genuine to them, post the information about the land you are selling there and before long you may get a buyer from the group.

5. Connect with local agents

Local agents can help you sell your land fast; this is because most people that want to buy land will first look for property agents.

And this is for one simple reason.

They do not know the land owners, so they do not know that you have land for sale, but with the property agents, they can get to land owners.

So if you connect with local agents, they will simply contact you when buyers call on them, thereby making the selling of your land easier and fast for you.

6. Put a sign on the land

You can put a ‘for sale’ sign on the land you intend to sell and include your phone number, that way anyone who sees the sign will know that the land is for sale and may contact you directly and you may possibly make the sale.

Putting a sign on the land you want to sell is good especially when you do not want to involve agents in the selling process, and you may simply wish not to involve agents while selling land because there are situations where some agents may delay the selling of your land by insisting that buyers will purchase your land at the price above what you want to sell it, however using agents is still a quick way to connect with buyers.

7. Pin a Post on a local Facebook property group

Locate a local Facebook group that focuses on properties, after identifying the right Facebook group, ask the admin of the group for permission to pin a post of your ‘for sale’ land on the group.

The good thing about this approach is that some of the members of the group may know the location of your land and they may easily relate to your offer.

In order to maximize the opportunity of selling your land through a Facebook group, you need to locate one with lots of members, that way you will have more chances of selling your land.

Also study the group to know if you can actually get buyers and if you think you cannot, simply move on to another local Facebook group.

8. List your land on a property site

There are sites where you can list your property for free in order to get buyers, and this can be a good way of selling your land fast.

In Nigeria, some free property listing sites to help you sell your land are privateproperty.com.ng, propertycenter.com.ng, nairabricks.com, etc

In order to get quicker results while listing your land on a property listing site, you can pay some money for your listing to appear more to their visitors, that way your listing will get more eyeballs and that will increase your chances of selling your land fast.

Conclusion

To sell your land fast in Nigeria, you need to explore many options because you never can tell the one that will generate results fast.

Use the offline and online methods explained in this article and before long you may sell your land.

However, you must understand that land is not like other commodities that people buy without many considerations, so if you wish to sell your land in Nigeria, you may need to exercise some patients if buyers are not coming fast because property buyers will first do some research before committing their money.
