I have visited so many cities in Nigeria due to my interest in the property business and I think Enugu is one of the most frustrating place to search for accommodation in Nigeria.

Read carefully. I am not talking about the general cost of apartments here. I am talking about the outrageous and unnecessary fees that these greedy and selfish Shylocks who call themselves property agents charge in Enugu.

It will interest you to know that the neighbouring states around are very different to what is obtainable in Enugu.

TYPICAL COST OF BED-SITTER/ONE ROOM IN ENUGU:

1 year rent = 200k/250k
Agent fee = 100k
Agreement fee = 100k
Caution fee = 50k
Management fee = 50k

Total = 500k/550k

Now, a young man who earns 50k as salary (average salary of a graduate in Enugu) is expected to pay 500k-550k for a bedsitter apartment for a year! If it was an industrialized city like Detroit, Amsterdam, Dubai, Los Angeles or Leeds, it would have been different but not a place that has civil servants and small business people as the greater part of the population.

Just because say you show me one room apartment, I go give you 100k!!!

Na wah

Abuja, lagos, rivers, delta, enugu etc... The situation is almost thesame in city areas.
Country hard, no work anywhere, property owers/ landlords are increasing rents like they are increasing volume!

No different at Lagos here, but depend on location

Make Enugu no come spoil Lagos ohhhh

Chai.

You can get a well-furnished two bedroom flat for 180k in Karmo, Jiwa, Gwagwa, Tasha, Akaraka, etc, Abuja.

Just wow

Alright

For a city with low GDP, less Industrialization, No municipality water, less job openings

That is scam

Lagos, Ibadan, Kaduna, Kano, Anambra, Imo , PH are still viable for such rent


.

It's spreading everywhere.

Till date I don't still understand why person go leave him village/ lhouse go dey hustle for another Man village, then use the money just to pay house rent bill, buy food. Pay NEPA bill,pay high transport, Maybe hire experience olosho, at the end he might die without achieving anything part from paying those bills. Whereas in his village, there is free accommodation, cheap food, fresh food, farmland to plant of the things, cheap NEPA bill, cheap transportation and cheap girls .
Human never know wetin them want. We over labour ourselves unnecessarily. And animals will be laughing at us.
How can we be earning salary just for bills and House and food.

Someone said Enugu agents of darkness.

Enugu is a home to me, biko the so called agents of darkness should steer clear of it.

Most house agents in enugu stay in uncompleted buildings

If only person fit carry house travel
