Time for low income earners to own homes as Switchlane­s offers opportunit­y

- CHUKA UROKO

For low income earners, time is here and now for them to buy their homes as Switchlane­s Investment has put on the market products that are not only pocket-friendly but also accessible with convenient payment plan that suits their income flow.

Consistent with their mission to ensure that no matter how small one’s income is, he should be able to afford a house, the young real estate developmen­t company has put out a number of products targeted at various income classes in the society.

One of such products is

Yorkville Estate Phase 2. Others are Swanpark Estate, Greenfield Court, Greenfield Estate Phase 2, and Norrisgree­n Court, all being developed across three main locations in Abijo, Epe and Ibeju Lekki which is adjudged as the fastest developing area in Lagos.

Ibeju Lekki is home to the expansive Lekki Free Trade Zone (LFTZ) where massive developmen­ts are taking place including the over 600 barrels per day Dangote Oil Refinery that promises to employ over 10,000 staff who will be needing real estate assets and products for living, working and leisure. LFTZ is also where the ambitious 200-hectare Alaro City is fast evolving.

This means that any property bought within that axis has great potential for rapid value appreciati­on and a promise for good return on investment. This, therefore, makes the Swtichlane­s products a good buy for either residentia­l or commercial purposes.

“All our products are so affordable that even the masses can buy and we don’t waste time with allocation of plots,” Babatunde Ogunsanwo, the company’s Operationa­l Manager, assured at an interactiv­e session with select property editors in Lagos.

According to him, the Swanpark Estate located in Ashagun village in Ibeju Lekki was selling for 650,000naira per plot, adding that, for flexibilit­y of payment, buyers could pay by installmen­t for 3months after the initial deposit of N250,000. Also the Greenfield Estate is selling for 650,000 with installmen­t payment option.

“But our Yorkville Estate also in Ibeju Lekki goes for N1.5million and this is because it has been approved by the Lagos State government. Greenfield Phase 2 is selling for N2.5million. Here, we have done allocation for people that have paid all their charges. Some have even started building on their plots,” he said.
