Bennett Oghifo Mixta Africa has expressed support for the Federal Government's proposed reforms to enhance regulation and boost confidence in Nigeria's housing sector. The developer has called for transparent mechanisms to verify construction milestones and access appropriate construction finance. Key aspects of the proposed National Housing and Built Environment Regulation Policy include mandatory licensing for developers and estate agents, escrow protection for buyers' funds, improved land administration, urban renewal, and a National Housing Industry Regulatory Commission.
