Your application is reviewed step by step

The review team goes through your application in stages. You will see live status updates in your dashboard and receive a notification if any document is needed. No guessing, no chasing.

3

Protect your investment

Always verify before
you pay or sign.

Land fraud is one of the most common financial crimes in Nigeria. A verification report from SmartLease tells you exactly who owns a land, whether it carries any debts or legal flags, and whether the document is genuine. It takes under a minute and it is completely free.

Questions people ask before they start

Straight answers, plain language, nothing hidden.

Yes. Your application is automatically saved as a draft. You can log back in at any point before the closing date and continue from where you stopped. The portal shows you exactly which documents are still missing so there is no guesswork before you submit.

Yes, everything is displayed upfront on the project page before you even start an application. You will see the application fee, the one-time allocation fee, and the annual ground rent broken down by land use type. There are no hidden charges that appear later.

Use the Verify a Land tool on this portal. Ask the seller for the land public key, enter it here, and you will receive a full report showing the registered owner, any outstanding liens or mortgages, and any legal or government flags on the land. Always verify before you pay any money or sign any document.

Yes. SmartLease supports co-ownership, with each person's share recorded as a percentage. All owners are listed on the record, and the full ownership history is preserved. This protects everyone if a dispute ever comes up.

No. You can apply, verify, and manage your land entirely on this portal without involving an agent. There is no extra charge for doing it yourself. If someone tells you they need cash to process your government land application, that is a red flag. All legitimate payments go through the portal only.

Once your application is approved and payment confirmed, your land ownership record is created on the portal. You will receive your ownership key and can download your allocation documents directly from your dashboard. You can also track your ground rent schedule and manage everything from one place going forward.
