Harping on the two new projects of the firm, he said, the Pinnock Prime Estate which is a 1.47 hectare site and service scheme is located in Lekki Peninsula II, saying it is designed to meet the housing needs of workers and middle income earners.

To him, ‘’it is envisioned to become a sought-after development and estate of choice within the area creating a new benchmark for suburban living. The Hampshire is the creation of approximately five hectare mixed use development into Serviced Plots (Site and Service Infrastructure) with Residential, Commercial and Public Use Zones. The estate will comprise three zones in Sangotedo area of Lagos.”

Ojo stressed that, “we have started to do projects and we would be developing more projects. Last year, we only had one project that contributed to the (appreciation in indices). We had some assets too. But to sustain it, we need a consistent flow of projects.

“Most real estate businesses don’t have a flat cash flow projection. There are some years where you sow, there are some years where you reap. Sometimes it takes two years to buy the land, design it, and get planning approval. So the gestation period for real estate development takes a long time but what we want to do is that we want to have a healthy pipeline of projects which we are currently working on.

“It requires a lot of capital, it requires a lot of patience. It is not a slam dunk as they say. It is not one year to do it and then forget about it. Last year was a good year for us, we expect this year to possibly be good, but we do not expect the spike like we saw between 2021 and 2022.’’
