A Houston-based buyer explains how an independent pre-purchase inspection provided crucial information before committing to a Nigerian property.
How diaspora clients in London, Houston and Toronto build, inspect, secure and manage property in Nigeria with one accountable team on the ground.
Three different needs, one approach. Clear evidence, coordinated vendors and a single point of accountability.
Construction Monitoring
A London-based owner needed proof that reported progress matched what was happening on site. Weekly site checks, photos and milestone reviews gave her one accountable point on the ground.

Pre-Purchase Inspection
Buying from overseas, Funmi only had listing photos to go on. An independent condition inspection surfaced concerns before she paid, so she could pause, ask better questions and decide with evidence.

Security & Management
CCTV, smart locks and tenant screening would have meant three separate vendors. Proptiva coordinated all of it as one documented workflow Kwame can follow from Canada.

Dated photos, video and site notes tied to real milestones, so owners see what happened instead of hearing about it.
Contractors, installers and inspectors coordinated through Proptiva rather than a chain of separate chats and relatives.
Quotes are approved before invoices and progress is checked before funds are released, with every record kept in the client portal.
Client names are shortened to protect privacy. Inspections and monitoring reduce risk but do not replace legal, title, survey or specialist engineering due diligence.
