What owning land in Garki involves.

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

OwnershipOwning land in GarkiUnder the Land Use Act, land in Jigawa is held in trust by the governor, so owners in Garki LGA hold a right of occupancy rather than freehold. Around Garki, land is mostly held customarily; the local government grants rights of occupancy and the community must consent to a sale.

SellingSelling land in GarkiThe usual buyers for land in Garki LGA are agro-investors, farmers and businesses needing large sites. We put Governor’s Consent and the survey in order first, then price against land sales in Doko, Kargo and Rafin Marke.
LeasingGround leases in GarkiGround leases in Garki LGA suit farmers and agro-processors. The title stays with you, and the lease sets the term, the rent reviews and how the land is returned.
ValuationValuing land in GarkiWe value land in Garki LGA from comparable land sales in Doko, Kargo, Rafin Marke and Sankara, adjusted for plot size, shape and frontage; the title type; road access; and distance to Dutse (about 71 km).
