Land

What owning land in Oru-East involves.

Ownership, buying, selling, leasing, valuation and investment of land, as they apply in Oru-East LGA.

OwnershipOwning land in Oru-EastIn Oru-East LGA, as everywhere in Imo, the Land Use Act applies: you own a right of occupancy, not freehold. In Oru-East, buying in an estate usually means a share of a global title, so separate registration matters. Foreign individuals and companies usually hold through a company incorporated in Nigeria.
BuyingBuying a plot in Oru-EastIn Oru-East LGA, the choice is usually an estate plot or a standalone plot, often toward Omuma and Amiri. The developer’s title and the infrastructure actually built are the key checks. Port Harcourt International Airport is about 77 km away, so most clients walk the plot with us on video while we inspect in person.
SellingSelling land in Oru-EastPlots in Oru-East LGA mostly sell to families and Nigerians abroad planning to build, and estate developers. We put Governor’s Consent and the survey in order first, then price against land sales in Omuma, Amiri and Otulu.
LeasingGround leases in Oru-EastGround leases in Oru-East LGA suit small businesses and developers in a growing area. We vet tenants, agree the term and reviews in writing, and collect ground rent for you.
ValuationValuing land in Oru-EastLand values in Oru-East LGA come from current evidence, chiefly comparable land sales in Omuma, Amiri, Otulu and Awo-Omamma, adjusted for plot size, shape and frontage; the title type; road access; and distance to Owerri (about 26 km).
