Land in Bassa: what to know.

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

OwnershipLand titles in BassaIn Bassa LGA, as everywhere in Kogi, the Land Use Act applies: you own a right of occupancy, not freehold. In rural Bassa, a customary right of occupancy and the community’s consent are the basis of any purchase. International buyers normally hold through a Nigerian-incorporated company.
BuyingBuying land in BassaLand around Bassa LGA tends to come in larger parcels. Community consent, a registered survey and a usable access road come first. Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport is about 139 km away, so most clients walk the plot with us on video while we inspect in person.
SellingSelling a plot in BassaThe usual buyers for land in Bassa LGA are 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 Akakana, Ayede and Akuba.
LeasingLeasing land in BassaGround leases in Bassa LGA suit farmers and agro-processors. Leases are drafted with your lawyer, tenants are vetted and ground rent is collected on schedule.
ValuationWhat land in Bassa is worthWe value land in Bassa LGA from comparable land sales in Akakana, Ayede, Akuba and Mozum, adjusted for plot size, shape and frontage; the title type; road access; and distance to Lokoja (about 67 km). Asking prices are not published here because they move; you get a written valuation.
InvestmentInvesting in land in BassaThe strongest land cases in Bassa LGA are farmland and large parcels for agro-processing, well away from Lokoja. Each parcel is tested against demand, access and title risk before you commit.
