SellingSelling a plot in AwguThe usual buyers for land in Awgu LGA are families and Nigerians abroad planning to build, and estate developers. A perfected title sells faster, so we secure Governor’s Consent and the survey before listing, and price against recent land sales in Mgbidi, Mmaku and Amoli.
