A short talk on how owning part of a property actually works, and why it is the easiest way in.
Own a real share of a real property across Lagos and other African cities. No minimum. You see the title, the building, and the documents before you put in any money. You can visit anytime.
Pay toward a home and end up owning it. The income from your co-ownership helps cover the monthly amount.
Use the value of what you already own on Brik to buy a home outright and repay over 12 to 36 months.
You have paid rent for years. What do you own from it? Nothing.
Every new year the landlord asks for more, often two years upfront, and your salary does not keep up. You move, you pay agent fees, you start again.
If you keep renting, the money keeps leaving and never comes back in your name.
