What You Should Know About RPL’s Cedar Homes

In view of the 17 million housing units deficiency in the country, coming up with a affordable housing scheme was always going to be a welcome development, hence the birth of RPL’s Cedar Homes. This article showcases salient points that makes Cedar Homes a worthy investment for most Nigerians.

Despite the concentration of public housing scheme in Lagos state many Lagosians still live in squalor in slum areas while others suffer problems of high cost of rent, overcrowding, over utilization of infrastructural facilities and insecurity.

The most disturbing problem that has affected the lives of tenants, especially the low income class in recent times is the problem of “quit notice” adopted by many landlord to eject those who are not ready to accept rent increase or pay rents when due.

Some of these housing related problems are partly not unconnected with the ever increasing population of the city of excellence; people throng into the former Nigerian capital daily.

It must be understood that the supposed low cost housing scheme in the country like any other low cost housing scheme is meant to be affordable even to the low income class as the name implies. Albeit, is that really the case? Is a housing scheme for low income earners in the country then a mirage?

Whilst we look for other means to cater for low income earners in the country, there is a more disturbing problem that can be tackled with or without the intervention of the government. That challenge is the effects of a quit notice on the health of many Nigerians. The Blood pressure of many tenant rises in the days preceding the expiration of their rents. Many more have become hypertensive after being served a quit notice.

The aforementioned challenges formed the core of Realty Point Limited’s work-sheet when the Cedar Homes project was birthed. And on the 20th day of August, 2016, history was made when the real estate company launched their flagship entry product into affordable housing in Lagos and Abuja

RPL’s affordable housing development is primarily aimed at providing access to quality housing solutions for middle income earners.

The Cedar homes brand is carefully conceptualized and designed as a haven of unparalleled comfort for the prospective owners, occupiers, investors and tenant-buyers.
