Background of the Study
Infrastructure development is a major driver of land value appreciation in urban areas. In Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria, rapid infrastructural expansion—ranging from transportation networks, utilities, and social amenities—has been a critical factor influencing land demand and property values. Improved infrastructure, such as the construction of new roads, bridges, and public transportation systems, enhances accessibility and connectivity, making surrounding areas more desirable for residential, commercial, and industrial developments.
In Abuja, land value has consistently appreciated in areas where significant infrastructure investments have been made, contributing to the overall growth of the real estate market. However, the relationship between infrastructure development and land value appreciation is complex and may vary depending on the type and scale of infrastructure projects. This study aims to explore how different types of infrastructure development influence land value in Abuja, providing insights into the key factors that drive land value growth in the city.
Statement of the Problem
While the relationship between infrastructure development and land value appreciation is widely recognized, there is limited empirical research on how specific infrastructure projects have impacted land values in Abuja. As infrastructure projects continue to shape the city’s development, understanding the connection between these developments and land value appreciation is crucial for property investors, urban planners, and policymakers. This research seeks to investigate the effect of infrastructure development on land value in Abuja and identify which types of infrastructure contribute most to land value growth.
Objectives of the Study
- To investigate the relationship between infrastructure development and land value appreciation in Abuja.
- To assess the impact of different types of infrastructure projects on land value in various districts of Abuja.
- To propose recommendations for maximizing the impact of infrastructure development on land value appreciation in Abuja.
Research Questions
- How does infrastructure development influence land value appreciation in Abuja?
- What types of infrastructure projects have the most significant impact on land value in Abuja?
- How can infrastructure development be optimized to enhance land value appreciation in Abuja?
Research Hypotheses
- Infrastructure development positively influences land value appreciation in Abuja.
- Transportation and utility infrastructure have the most significant impact on land value in Abuja.
- Areas with more developed infrastructure exhibit higher land value appreciation compared to less developed areas in Abuja.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study will focus on the relationship between infrastructure development and land value in various districts of Abuja. Limitations include challenges in obtaining accurate data on land values and infrastructure development projects, as well as potential biases in land valuation reports.
