Lawyers’ Housing Scheme Offers 50% Deposit and Two-Year Payment Plan for Land Buyers
The Lawyers Mass-Housing and Land-Banking Scheme has announced that prospective subscribers can secure plots in its Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA)-allocated estate with a 50 per cent deposit and spread the outstanding payment over two years.
The initiative, promoted through the Lawyers In Business Institute, is designed to encourage legal practitioners to acquire land, develop residential properties and establish additional sources of income through rental investments.
According to the scheme’s organisers, the initial deposit also protects subscribers against subsequent increases in land prices, allowing them to retain the existing rate while completing payment through monthly instalments.
The organisers disclosed that only two plots remained available at the old price, encouraging interested subscribers to take advantage of the payment arrangement.
The announcement followed a visit to the estate by Lady Azuka Azinge, a former Registrar of the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), who reportedly commended the initiative and its efforts to provide affordable housing and investment opportunities for legal practitioners.
The scheme encourages lawyers to acquire plots and develop residential flats that can generate rental income over time. Senior legal practitioners have also been urged to consider building staff quarters to help address accommodation challenges facing younger lawyers.
According to the organisers, prospective subscribers can select plots remotely, while those outside Abuja may appoint representatives to undertake physical inspections and allocation on their behalf.
Inspection and allocation exercises were scheduled for Friday, November 13, Saturday, November 14 and Sunday, November 15, 2026, between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. daily.
Interested subscribers can contact the scheme’s organisers on 08060266163 or 08050489622 for further information about plot availability, inspection and allocation.
The initiative is administered by Chief Silas E. Agbara, Senior Associate at M.I. Dikko SAN & Associates and Pioneer Secretary of the NBA Legal Entrepreneurship Committee.
