Hi Everyone,

I am an Indian coming to Lagos with a 3 year assignment. I am looking for a 2/3 bedroom fully furnished appartment in V.I or Ikoyi. Need some leads and approximate rental amount that you think it will cost me.

One more thing, have checked an appt by the name of Roman Gardens, near Silver Bird. Any ideas about reputation and safety angle about this property.

Would really appreciate the advice.

Cheers,

Ajay

Well Ajay, there is no miracle and immediate response (wherever you post) is rarely the case! You need to be patient and maybe multiply your chances by checking all possible ads on the web.
Anyway I wish you good luck!

I remember Roman Gardens from a few years ago. Back then it was a poorly maintained toilet which the inhabitants shared with the roaches.

It may have been refurbished since then, but if it's the same management company, don't touch it with聽 ten foot pole.
