\u201cIdentifying and taking opportunities in <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/property-center-nigeria\/\">real estate<\/a> sector: Essentially in Estate Agency Practice\u201d, organised by the Faculty of Estate Agency and Marketing; a Business Division of NIESV, Adediji stressed that countries and organisations like Nigeria, Rwanda, Apple, Toyota, General Electric, Dangote, Coca-cola among others prosper through the concept.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn all sincerity, what percentage of our time, and our resources do we as Estate Surveyor and Valuers devote to the concept, practice and pursuit of Marketing? <\/p>\n<p>\u201c Do we in fact, even attempt to seriously market ourselves or our companies or our products effectively to the general public? <\/p>\n<p>\u201cEstate Agency has become the most contested, threatened or endangered section of our professional practice, because it is now taken over and dominated by quacks, lawyers, retirees, unemployed and unemployable persons and youths, some opportunistic foreigners, politicians, and corporate bodies in pursuit of pseudo-diversification\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Adediji, decried that the sector is now characterised by the phenomenon of massive market disruption, landlord-tenant crisis, abandoned projects, legislative aberrations, emergency sale and capital flight.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, because the property boom had been largely fuelled by corruption money where there was no correlation between the utility or the investment worth of a property compared to the price being paid to acquire it, the sector has been troubled and bastardised.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the gloom afflicting the real estate industry, he pointed out that there is a glimmer of hopes and opportunities, which can be tapped into by the discerning, innovative and assiduous practitioners.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that Nigeria\u2019s self-imposed economic recession seems to be abating but the property sector is yet to crawl out of the quagmire not until 2020 depending on the outcome of the national election in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the Chairman of Estate Agency and Marketing division of NIESV, Mr. Sam Eboigbe said; \u201dWe need to empower our selves every month especially in terms of knowledge acquisition and that is why we invite outstanding players in the industry to come and share experiences, their knowledge on areas which we need to develop competence and sharpen our skills. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe essence is to increase our knowledge based and ensure that we sanitize our profession in line with best international standards, discover opportunities available and other areas we need to diversify into; like Agriculture among others\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a hre=\"http:\/\/guardian.ng\/property\/niesv-charts-path-for-posterity-in-real-estate\/\"> Guardian <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers president, Dr. Bolarinde Patunola-Ajayi Worried by limited understanding &hellip;
