Ajah–Sangotedo Real Estate: Why Infrastructure Drives Value

Ajah–Sangotedo sits on Lagos’ Lekki growth corridor, but property values here do not rise evenly. The real driver of appreciation is infrastructure, not location alone.

Estates with good access roads, proper drainage, security, reliable utilities, and proximity to malls and commercial hubs consistently outperform others. Over time, this creates visible price gaps between estates just minutes apart.

In simple terms:

  • Well-serviced estates attract stronger demand, rent faster, and appreciate faster.

  • Mid-level estates grow steadily as surrounding infrastructure improves.

  • Under-serviced estates remain cheap until infrastructure arrives, if it ever does.

For investors and buyers, the key question is no longer “How close is it?” but:
“What infrastructure exists today, and what is improving?”

In Ajah–Sangotedo, infrastructure is the silent salesman. It keeps working long after the marketing stops.
