Background of the Study
Risk management is a crucial aspect of property investment, as investors are often exposed to a wide range of risks, including market volatility, regulatory changes, environmental risks, and tenant default (Ibrahim & Akinyele, 2023). Effective risk management strategies are essential for mitigating these risks and ensuring the sustainability of property investments. In Nigeria, the real estate sector has become increasingly complex, with various factors influencing property values and returns. Kaduna State, a key city in northern Nigeria, has seen a growing interest in real estate investment due to its strategic location, economic activities, and population growth. However, property investors in Kaduna face unique risks related to political instability, security challenges, and fluctuating demand for properties.
Understanding how property investors in Kaduna State identify, assess, and manage these risks is crucial for improving the stability and profitability of the real estate market. This study will investigate the risk management strategies adopted by property investors in Kaduna State, focusing on both residential and commercial properties. By assessing the effectiveness of these strategies, the study aims to provide valuable insights into how investors can navigate the challenges of the local real estate market.

Without a clear understanding of the risk management strategies employed in the region, investors may face substantial financial losses or mismanage their investments.
