The real estate market in Asaba, Delta State, is witnessing a dramatic surge in land prices, driven by rapid urbanization, infrastructural development, and rising demand. What was once considered an affordable region for land acquisition is fast becoming a hotspot for premium real estate investments, with experts warning that the opportunity window is quickly narrowing.
According to Humphrey Ufuoma Muemufoh, Managing Director and CEO of Urban Planet Real Estate and Construction LTD, the price hike is no coincidence but rather the result of strategic transformation in the city’s landscape.
“Asaba is undergoing a metamorphosis. With major infrastructure like the Second Niger Bridge and extensive road networks being completed, land is no longer just land—it’s a high-yielding asset. Every day you wait, the price goes up,” Muemufoh stated.
The city is rapidly evolving into a bustling commercial and residential center. Businesses, government institutions, and private developers are all setting up shop in Asaba, further fueling land demand. Urban development is in overdrive, and real estate experts like Muemufoh believe the momentum will only intensify.
Another key factor influencing the surge is the rising cost of construction materials and overall inflation. These economic pressures are making land ownership increasingly costly. Coupled with the ongoing rush by investors to secure available plots, land in prime areas is becoming scarce and highly valuable.
“We’re seeing investors who bought plots just a year ago now watching their property values double. It’s not just a market trend—it’s a wealth-building opportunity,” Muemufoh added.
Urban Planet Real Estate is positioning itself as a reliable partner for those looking to invest in Asaba’s booming property sector. The company offers strategically located plots, flexible payment plans, and 100% secure and verified transactions, along with expert advisory services.
Muemufoh emphasizes the urgency for investors to act swiftly.
“The best time to invest in Asaba real estate was yesterday. The second-best time is today. Delay could mean losing out on owning a piece of the future,” he concluded.
For potential investors, the message is clear: Asaba’s real estate market is heating up, and those who seize the moment stand to gain significantly in the years to come. Urban Planet is helping lead that charge, offering tailored solutions to make real estate investment seamless and rewarding.
