About property search in Lagos

Finding a house in Lagos without stress comes down to having the right person on the ground. Our agents know their areas the way someone who has lived there for a decade knows it — which landlords are reasonable, which estates have consistent light and water, which streets flood in July.

They go in person, take photos and a video walkthrough, and send you real options through the app. You review from your phone, pick the one you want to inspect, and we arrange the viewing. One trip. No wasted weekends.

Lagos is also where most of our agents are. If you are looking in Lekki, VI, Ikeja, Ajah, Surulere, Yaba, Maryland, Magodo, or Ikorodu — we have verified agents on the ground right now.

Common questions

What areas in Lagos do HouseRun agents cover?

Our Lagos agents cover Lekki Phase 1, Victoria Island, Ikoyi, Ikeja, Ajah, Surulere, Yaba, Maryland, Magodo, Gbagada, Ikorodu, and more. When you post a brief, you choose which area you want searched.

How long does a property search in Lagos take?

Most agents submit their first property options within 24–72 hours of claiming a brief. The brief stays active for 7 days. Average time from brief to first viewing is 3–5 days based on current platform data.

How much does it cost to search for a flat in Lagos?

Fees start at ₦3,000 platform fee + ₦4,000 transport escrow per area for rental briefs. The transport escrow is refunded if no inspection happens within 7 days. For purchase or land briefs, fees are slightly higher — you see the full breakdown before you pay.

Do I need to be in Lagos to use HouseRun?

No. Many of our seekers are relocating from other cities or abroad. Your agent handles the physical search and sends full video walkthroughs. You only travel to Lagos when you have found a property worth inspecting.

Do Lagos landlords really demand one or two years upfront?

Yes — most Lagos landlords expect 1–2 years rent paid upfront, plus a 10% agent commission (negotiated directly with your agent). HouseRun fees are separate and much smaller. We have no control over what landlords charge, but your agent will tell you the landlord's exact terms before you arrange any viewing.
