SellingSelling land in SumailaLand in Sumaila LGA typically sells to agro-investors, farmers and businesses needing large sites. A perfected title sells faster, so we secure Governor’s Consent and the survey before listing, and price against recent land sales in Gediya, Gala and Gani.
LeasingGround leases in SumailaIn Sumaila LGA, demand for leased land comes from farmers and agro-processors. The title stays with you, and the lease sets the term, the rent reviews and how the land is returned.
