Firm, Kwara govt to provide affordable housing

An Ilorin, Kwara State-based property firm, DaatHomes Investment Ltd, has extended a hand of partnership to Kwara State Government to provide quality and affordable housing to residents.

It said it had plans to build 5,000 bungalows in the next five years in states across the country.

Founders of the firm, Atolagbe Daniel and Ifeoluwa Sanusi, told The Nation in an exclusive interview in Ilorin.

They lamented that funding was the major constraint affecting upcoming small businesses in the nation.

Daniel said: “We hope to work with the state government in the provision of affordable housing for the masses in very suitable location in the state and across the country.

“We need partnership with the state government, as we are looking into providing 5,000 bungalows in the next five years. But our major constraint is funding. With the help of government and other investors, we will be able to deliver the project.

“We also hope to approach the banks to raise funds in order to deliver to clients, quality, best and affordable homes. Our major goal is to ensure shelter for all at affordable rate.”

He said the property firm had delivered at least three estates in Ilorin and its environs.

“God has been faithful to us. We have been able to deliver at least three estates in the course of establishment of this company. The estates are Crystal, Future and Itunu in Oke-Oyi, Ilorin outskirts.”

Sanusi said based on the company’s track record, clients would not be disappointed.

“We have strategies and plans in place to provide quality and affordable housing in the state and by extension, Nigeria. We are assuring the masses that based on our future projects, they will get the best through the due diligence we have carried out,” he added.
