FAQ
In Lagos, a standard residential plot is typically 60 × 120 feet (18.3 × 36.6 metres) = approximately 669 square metres. However, the Lagos State government has adopted 450 sqm as a standard unit in many new allocations. Victoria Island, Ikoyi, and Lekki often have 500–1,000 sqm plots. Always verify dimensions on the survey plan or C of O.
Using the 648.77 sqm average plot size: 1 hectare (10,000 sqm) ÷ 648.77 = approximately 15.4 plots. In practice, with 50×100 ft plots (465 sqm each): 1 hectare ≈ 21.5 plots. For larger 100×100 ft plots (929 sqm): 1 hectare ≈ 10.8 plots. Always use the actual plot dimensions from survey documents.
A half plot is typically 50 × 100 feet (approximately 465 sqm) or 30 × 120 feet. Half plots are common in densely populated urban areas and are often sold to first-time buyers at lower prices. In some areas (especially Lagos), even smaller "quarter plots" (25 × 100 ft) are available. Check the survey plan dimensions before purchase.
