Background of the Study
The real estate sector in Nigeria is governed by various legal and regulatory frameworks, which are designed to ensure transparency, protect property rights, and maintain market stability. However, the effectiveness of these frameworks in addressing issues such as property ownership disputes, land title registration, and fraudulent transactions remains a matter of concern, especially in states like Taraba. Inadequate enforcement of regulations, lack of awareness among stakeholders, and ambiguous legal provisions often lead to complications in property transactions (Jibrin & Musa, 2024).
Taraba State, located in the northeastern region of Nigeria, faces unique challenges in its real estate market. These include unregistered properties, illegal land grabs, and conflicts arising from unclear ownership rights. Inadequate regulatory frameworks in the state may contribute to a lack of investor confidence and hinder the growth of the real estate market. This study will evaluate the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State, assessing their effectiveness in addressing property-related disputes and ensuring transparency in the real estate market.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the existence of regulations governing real estate transactions in Taraba State, challenges such as land disputes, unregistered transactions, and fraudulent practices persist. The lack of a comprehensive and effective regulatory framework may be contributing to these challenges, which in turn affects the stability of the real estate market in the state. This study will evaluate the regulatory frameworks in place and assess their ability to address these issues, providing recommendations for improving governance in real estate transactions.
Objectives of the Study
- To evaluate the effectiveness of regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State.
- To assess the challenges faced by stakeholders in the real estate sector due to regulatory inadequacies in Taraba State.
- To recommend improvements to the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State.
Research Questions
- How effective are the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State?
- What challenges do stakeholders face in real estate transactions due to inadequate regulatory frameworks in Taraba State?
- What improvements can be made to the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State?
Research Hypotheses
Ho1: The regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State do not significantly contribute to the resolution of property disputes and fraud prevention.
Ho2: Stakeholders do not face significant challenges due to inadequate regulatory frameworks in Taraba State's real estate sector.
Ho3: There are no significant improvements that can be made to the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study will focus on the regulatory frameworks governing real estate transactions in Taraba State, assessing their effectiveness and proposing improvements. Limitations include the difficulty in obtaining comprehensive data from regulatory authorities and stakeholders, as well as potential bias in responses from affected parties.
