He underscores the importance of due diligence and urges prospective investors, particularly those in the diaspora, to engage with certified professionals to safeguard their interests.

Stimulating Local and Foreign Investment:
Adeoye emphasizes the significance of fostering a conducive investment climate to attract both local and foreign investors. While acknowledging the allure of foreign investment, he underscores the imperative of prioritizing local investors and nurturing indigenous enterprises. Adeoye advocates for streamlined regulatory processes and proactive government support to incentivize investment in the real estate sector.

Ultimately, Adeoye's insights shed light on the multifaceted challenges confronting Nigeria's real estate landscape while offering pragmatic solutions to foster sustainable growth and development.
