The Intelligent Investor: Getting Detailed and Organized

 

Real estate Investing in Nigeria | Fine & Country 

“For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned”
-Benjamin Franklin

As an investor, it is pertinent to know,  that you are probably not the only bargain seeker out there looking for great investment opportunities in a slow real estate market. You may have an edge on the sellers as cash is now king, but another buyer could snap up your great deal if you delay the buying process.

It is, therefore, important that once you’ve decided to look for great deals, you should get your down payment ready to move once a transaction is agreed. In the case of financing with a mortgage facility, you will need to have got pre-approved for the loan to prevent undue delays.

Real Estate transactions are better handled when you get a well-informed advisor on your side.  These professionals provide valuable information and let a buyer investor know early on in the process what to look out for and what they can use to their advantage. Researching your advisors is a critical element especially in developing economies like Nigeria. It’s best to get a referral rather than to rely on the internet wherever possible as integrity is still a big issue in our market.

Speaking from her experience as a 21st-century business leader, she maintained that the companies that have a strong sense of purpose will retain people with a strong sense of purpose and the people with strong personal vision, tend to last longer in the company.
