Lagos vs. London/ Lagos vs Birmingham: Which Market Delivers the Best Returns?
The real estate market is about numbers—rental income, occupancy rates, and long-term value. While Lagos remains a familiar and lucrative playground for Nigerian investors, the UK, particularly London and Birmingham, offers unique advantages such as stability, security, and consistent returns. In Lagos, rental prices have surged 91% in five years, with two-bedroom apartments in choice areas exceeding ₦1 million annually. The short-let property market has seen remarkable progress in recent times, recording a massive ₦264.3 billion in 2024, but a closer look reveals a market heavily dependent on peak seasons.
