A Lagos-based real estate company, Staplus Homes has stepped up efforts to address Nigeria’s deepening housing deficit by focusing on land acquisition and the delivery of affordable residential estates for Nigerians across income levels.
With millions of Nigerians still shut out of decent housing due to rising property prices, land disputes and limited access to finance, Staplus Homes said its strategy is built around providing secure, well-documented land and entry-level incentives that make homeownership more attainable, particularly for workers in the public and private sectors.
The company is currently offering plots in Ambassador City Phase 1, Mowe–Ofada, as well as Ontario City, Agbowa, Ikorodu, two fast-growing residential corridors within the Lagos–Ogun axis.
According to Staplus Homes, the estates are located on dry land and are free from omo onile encumbrances, a persistent concern for many property buyers in Lagos and its surrounding areas.
To further ease access, the firm disclosed that subscribers are being offered incentives, including 200 free blocks and five bags of cement, to support the commencement of foundation work and reduce initial construction costs.
Staplus Homes said its developments are tailored to meet the needs of middle-income earners seeking affordable and secure property investments, noting that its client base spans both the public and private sectors.
The company is led by Ambassador Femi Aderibigbe, a graduate of Cost Management from the Durban University of Technology, South Africa. He began his career with WAPCO, now Lafarge, and has since built experience across the tourism, entertainment and real estate sectors. Aderibigbe is an associate member of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) and the National Institute of Marketing of Nigeria (NIMN).
Observers say initiatives such as those being pursued by Staplus Homes underscore the growing role of private developers in tackling Nigeria’s housing challenge. While the scale of the deficit remains daunting, industry experts maintain that sustained private-sector investment, combined with supportive government policies, is critical to expanding access to affordable housing nationwide.
