American psychologist, Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" postulated the popular Maslow's hierarchy of needs. He used the terms physiological, safety, belongingness and love, esteem, self-actualization, and self-transcendence to describe the pattern that human motivations generally move through.
According to him, physiological needs are thought to be the most important that every human basically seek for. These include: air, water, food, clothing and shelter. Maslow's assertion is generally agreed upon by many academic scholars. While these basic needs are still a big challenge in many underdeveloped nations, many developing countries are steadily developing and surmounting these challenges.
Research has shown that Africa is the world’s fastest growing middle class. Retail and real estate services are hot investment areas in the continent currently - surpassing even natural resources, forever the continent’s main investment draw. A key factor to this is contributing to this growth is the increasing numbers of foreign investors, rapid growth of Small and Medium Scales Entrepreneurs (SMEs) and technology.
Nigeria - West Africa's business hub has been at the centre of this development. According to the World Bank, Nigeria with a population of nearly 180 million had purchasing power parity, PPP, equivalent of 32 per cent of world average. A Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita PPP averaging $3742.63 from 1990 until 2014 – stretched to an all-time high of $5606.56 in 2014. This reveals by the country is an attractive market to global retail businesses which no doubt need the support of real estate firms to get good, strategic and comfortable accommodation and properties.
Though lot of real estate firms are stringing up but very few could boast of quality services in areas of Estate/Facility Management, Project Management and General Contracts offerings.
Against this backdrop, Mr. Egbetola Lekan, a Real Estate Consultant is ready to offer these services to encourage the interest of individuals in real estate investment as a lucrative business.
