Land

Land in Kaduna: what to know.

Ownership, buying, selling, leasing, valuation and investment of land, as they apply in Kaduna State.

OwnershipOwning land in KadunaUnder the Land Use Act, land in Kaduna is held in trust by the governor, so owners in Kaduna State hold a right of occupancy rather than freehold. Documents in Kaduna range from Certificates of Occupancy to older deeds; transfers need Governor’s Consent. International buyers normally hold through a Nigerian-incorporated company.

BuyingBuying a plot in KadunaPlots in built-up Kaduna State tend to be infill sites, so check road access, drainage, setbacks and permitted use with the title. Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport is about 173 km away, so most clients walk the plot with us on video while we inspect in person.

SellingSelling land in KadunaLand in Kaduna State typically sells to developers, businesses needing a site and local investors. A perfected title sells faster, so we secure Governor’s Consent and the survey before listing, and price against recent land sales in Badarawa, Unguwan Sarki and Badiko.

LeasingGround leases in KadunaGround leases in Kaduna State suit businesses near Kaduna needing car parks, fuel stations or temporary sites, and fuel retailers, telecoms mast sites and pop-up businesses. We vet tenants, agree the term and reviews in writing, and collect ground rent for you.
