    Before you buy property in Nigeria, verify the seller as carefully as you verify the property. A real property can still be sold by the wrong person.

    What to confirm

    • The seller's name matches the title trail
    • The seller has authority to sell for a family, company or estate
    • Company documents support any company-owned property
    • All necessary signatories are involved
    • Payment account details make sense

    Why this matters

    Some disputes happen because one family member sells without authority, a company representative acts without approval or an agent collects money without a mandate.

    How Mansa Luxe approaches seller checks

    We focus on properties with a clear ownership story and encourage buyer lawyers to confirm seller authority before payment.
