The weaknesses of the naira give diaspora investors an advantage, especially in the real estate sector, where millions of Nigerian professionals and entrepreneurs continue to tap into the favourable exchange rate.<\/p>\n<p>Fine and Country, West Africa Business development and Sale consultant, Nonye Mike-Nnaji, who spoke to the media on the forthcoming Refined Investor Series to be hosted in London, traced the successes recorded to the efforts of Trade Ministry and the current administration has made improving the ease of doing business a top priority.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that the leading Premium Real Estate forum for astute and aspiring investors to receive accurate and current market insight, will this year lead conversations addressing the myths and misconceptions about investing in Nigeria while exposing, and connecting investors with safe, pre-qualified real estate opportunities from the leading and most reputable Nigerian developers.<\/p>\n<p>The two-day international edition themed \u2018\u201cTake Nigeria to the World\u201d will attract leading Nigerian Diaspora professionals, sports stars, entrepreneurs, family office administrators, wealth advisors and real estate enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Refined Investor Series will showcase current and upcoming projects in the residential and commercial segment, at both the luxury and mid market segments,\u201d Mike-Nnaji said.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from harnessing the untapped potential of high net-worth diaspora investors, an exclusive dinner, music and recognition will be hosted, to celebrate Nigeria\u2019s 57th independence, which would attract visionary leaders, showcase projects and the current advancements shaping the Nigerian real estate sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a perfect opportunity to showcase the best of Nigerian real estate and related services, especially those who have a compelling vision and story line with solid organization and services as core values. As diaspora investors have high standards, it is expected that only those projects that pass the most exacting due diligence will qualify to participate,\u201d said.<\/p>\n<p>To encourage more real estate activities by Nigerians in the diaspora, she suggested an improved and transparent\/automated title system, a more efficient legal system, and the availability of week-structured mortgages and construction loans.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cInvestment in infrastructure and tax reads for a\u00a0specialized real estate, will also boost the confidence of high-level investors. It\u2019s noteworthy that Lagos State as the nation\u2019s main gateway to real estate investments is leading the way in improving its real estate titling system.
