PrivateProperty.ng lists over 130,000 properties in Nigeria

Private Property Nigeria has reached a remarkable milestone of listing over 130,000 properties and 1.3 million enquiries since its inception in November 2011.

Speaking on this achievement, www.privateproperty.ng Managing Director & Co-Owner, Oluwafemi Taiwo, said “We keep data of property listings on our website as this ensures we have an estimate of growth in use of our website. The number of enquiries sent by property buyers to property sellers on our website is a key success factor for us, helping us ensure we’re adding value to all our users and this shows that the Real Estate sector in Nigeria is fully harnessing the potentials of the Internet”.

In a related development PrivateProperty.ng Operations Director, Femi Badmus, said a revamped website will be launched in early August 2014. The website will incorporate new features aimed at improving user experience as it is more responsive with easy navigation.

“It is important that users of the website find properties with ease and we are sure that the improved navigation on the new website will create for a further growth in our property listings and enquires sent to clients” he stated.
