Background of the Study
Real estate investment remains one of the most lucrative ways for individuals to build wealth, particularly in emerging markets. Small-scale investors, who typically do not have access to large amounts of capital, often rely on creative investment strategies to participate in the real estate market. In Nasarawa State, a growing number of small-scale investors have entered the real estate market as the state experiences urban growth, infrastructural development, and increasing demand for housing. These investors often focus on low-cost residential developments, land acquisition, and rental properties.
However, small-scale investors face unique challenges, such as limited access to financing, lack of information on market trends, and legal and regulatory hurdles. Understanding the investment strategies employed by these investors is crucial for identifying opportunities to improve their success and promote sustainable growth in the real estate market. This study aims to evaluate the strategies used by small-scale investors in Nasarawa State and explore the factors that influence their investment decisions and overall performance.
