Alaro City Marks $90m Universal Homes Handover

Universal Homes, in collaboration with Alaro City, has handed over the first 48 units of Universal One apartment.

The company, which disclosed this in a statement, said that the development of the 576-apartment project, valued at $90 million, marks a significant milestone for new homeowners and the broader housing sector in Nigeria, which faces a housing deficit estimated at over 20 million units.

“The rapid completion of the Universal One apartment, built using an advanced formwork construction method, is a testament to the potential of innovative building techniques to address this deficit. Situated off the eight-lane Main Boulevard in Alaro City, Universal One also boasts a three-acre park, recreational complex, a swimming pool, a football pitch, a gym, and many more amenities. The next 48 units will be handed over to owners by December 2024. The entire 576-apartment first phase of the project will be completed by the end of 2026,” the company said in a statement.

Congratulations to the new homeowners, and may your new homes bring you happiness and prosperity.”

Chairman of West Africa for Rendeavour and managing director at Alaro City, Yomi Ademola, said, “Universal Homes’s investment potential is growing daily. The proximity to the future airport, the fast-track connection to Lagos through the Epe Expressway or soon-to-be-built Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, access to the growing business hub, and a great rental demand make it a unique investment opportunity.”
