The 4 bedroom corner duplex with boys quarters

First stop is a four bedroom duplex on a corner piece. Corner pieces are the ones everybody wants, and the reason is simple: more frontage, more light, more breathing room, and easier access in and out of the compound.

The land is about 900 square metres. The main house has four bedrooms, and there is a separate two bedroom boys quarters. That BQ is gold. Put your staff there, give it to your in-laws when they visit, or let your grown-up first son feel like he has his own place. The listing describes the estate as highly secured.

The asking price is ₦800,000,000, and the title is a Certificate of Occupancy. The description refers to a Global C of O, so ask your lawyer to explain how your own interest will be documented under it.

The bungalow with the very large lounge

Not everybody wants to climb stairs every night. This four bedroom bungalow keeps the whole life on one floor, which is lovely for older parents, small children and anybody who simply likes things easy.

It also sits on a corner piece, and the land is big: 1117.84 square metres, more than two plots. The seller makes a point of the very large lounge, and when a seller calls a lounge very large, you should go and see it for yourself. Watch the video and picture your Christmas gathering in there.

For location, the listing places it close to Concord Hotel Owerri and the Cubana Chief Priest house, two landmarks anybody in Owerri can direct you to. The asking price is ₦950,000,000 with a Certificate of Occupancy.

The 5 bedroom fully detached house

Last stop is the most complete compound of the three. This is a five bedroom fully detached duplex on about 1,000 square metres.

Walk through the gate and look around. There is a self-contained two bedroom boys quarters. There is a separate security house and a generator house, so the noise and the fuel smell stay away from the main building. And there is parking for four cars, so your visitors are not blocking the street.

The asking price is ₦900,000,000, and the title is a Certificate of Occupancy. If you have a big family and you hate squeezing, this one go sweet you.

Before you buy in Udenwa Estate

Prices at this level demand careful checks. Inspect each house in person, ideally twice. Ask about estate dues and how the estate is run. Have a lawyer search the C of O and confirm the seller has the right to sell. Ask what stays in the house and what goes with the seller.

All three homes are verified listings on Xavorian. Each seller has passed an ID and liveness check, a bank-account name match, a document check and an automated audit. Use that as your head start, then do your own inspection. When you are ready to pay, pay only into an account whose name matches the verified seller. Open the listings on Xavorian and book your viewing.
