Nigeria's Housing Future: Addressing Challenges and Shaping Solutions.

Nigeria's housing future faces challenges due to one of Africa's largest housing deficits, with millions of families lacking access to affordable and secure housing. The Real Estate Stakeholders Forum held in Lagos on September 16, 2025, aimed to address systemic issues such as land titling delays, multiple taxation, inflationary building costs, and limited mortgage access.

The forum brought together industry stakeholders, developers, investors, policymakers, and financiers to discuss solutions to strengthen investor confidence and create a platform for reform. Key outcomes included the issuance of a Stakeholders Communiqué demanding policy development and the resolution to produce a detailed Policy Advisory Document to guide urban and regional planning in Lagos State.
