The fear of not getting things done at the right time

Nigerian Agents are definitely not going to make the list of the set of people who would make it to heaven because these people can lie!

The moment I told my landlord I would be moving out, I started seeing some agents bringing their clients. At first, I did not have a problem with it until they came knocking at my door at 8 pm, that they were here for inspection. I was so pissed like why Tf will you be knocking at my door so late in the night telling me you want to inspect the apartment so I told them No way, that they should come on the 1st of next month when I pack out, I called the landlord as well to let him know am no longer pleased with the numbers of people coming to check the apartment when I am still around.

The reason I said that agents can't make heaven is because of their deceitfulness. I heard one of the agents telling his client that the apartment is good and if she misses it, she won't see anything like it again. Meanwhile, I know that if those clients were to rent the apartment, they would regret ever doing so because they are going to face the same problem I faced in the house.

House hunting is not easy, especially for people with requirements... I clearly told my agent that there are three things I want when they want to get an apartment for me.

  • Constant Electricity
  • Upstairs
  • Personal Prepaid

I made this clear because of what I faced in the apartment I am about to pack out of, and never am I going to let that happen again... I started the hunt earlier last month but all the videos they sent me were not my taste and the ones I like are either rented out before I could make a move, At some point I was getting tired that I even had to go there and meet the agent physically, we spent a whole day searching for house but still did not like the one I was showed... It is either that the apartment is too small or not well ventilated, or it is downstairs..

At a point, it got tiring and was about limiting my standard because I already told my landlord I am packing out ending of this month and I do not want a situation that I will have to call or message him again to allow me spend one month extra, so that anxiety kinda want to make me settle for less, so I told the agent to start sending me videos of any houses available maybe I will see one I like, luckily I eventually saw one that also have my requirement but it was a new house and needed time for them to complete it.

I asked the landlady if it is possible to finish it within a week because I need to move in fast, she said once I pay, they will start work on it, so I paid and the POP and Tiles got done within a week as promised and even though I still have not moved in because the painter is still working there but I am no longer nervous knowing that I would be able to move by ending of this month.

While your experience is not funny cos what in the name of rubbish is that, Ai totally agree with you that most agents are not nice people and Lagos agents are the worst. How they proudly show you rubbish houses and suave cost you into wanting them is still a mystery to me. Very strange set of persons. The ending of the month is tomorrow ooo. Are you sure all would be ready for you?

Dealing with deceitful agents and untimely inspections sounds incredibly frustrating. It's important for agents to be honest and respect tenants' space, especially during the moving process. Hopefully, sharing your experience will help others avoid similar situations and encourage more ethical practices in the rental market.

It's such a relief when things finally start aligning, especially after dealing with so many setbacks. Hope the final touches are completed soon, and you can settle into your new place comfortably

That's too bad. I would almost hit that landlord for such, yeah I understand that he needs to fill the room so as to get money real quick but having people come for inspection while you're still occupying the room is out of it, 8 pm for inspection? No naw

That landlady is faithful, some will get you to pay but delay the house project for as long as they can.

Agents can lie Ehn
You will be seeing the house face to face that it is really bad but agents will convince and tell you that it’s the best house you can ever rent
