For a 2 Bedrooms flat in Oral Estate, you're looking at ₦0 to ₦0 per year. Standard units start at ₦0, while upgraded apartments with modern renovations, better positioning within the estate, and enhanced features can cost ₦0. Property age and renovation status matter. Location within the estate also affects pricing.

If you're confused about whether to look for a "flat" or "apartment" in Oral Estate, don't stress it. In Lagos, these terms are interchangeable; they both describe the same type of property. You're talking about self-contained residential units in multi-unit buildings. Whether someone calls it a flat or apartment depends on their background, but the properties themselves are identical.

Oral Estate properties come both ways. Empty units run ₦0 to ₦0 per year. Furnished properties with appliances, furniture, and complete fittings cost an extra ₦1,800,000 to ₦4,600,000 more annually; usually 25-35% higher than unfurnished. Estate properties generally maintain consistent furnishing standards. Filter by furnishing status on ExpertListing.

Standard features include estate-wide security with gates, generator backup systems, water reticulation, paved internal roads, street lighting, parking areas, and waste management. The estate features recreational facilities, green spaces, and community centers. Most properties have standard utilities with individual meters. Estate management ensures maintained common areas and organized services. Amenities provide comprehensive estate living infrastructure.

All landlords on ExpertListing are verified before listing, but take these extra steps: Use our map to physically locate and inspect the property. Ask to see the C of O or Governor's Consent and verify it's genuine; this is crucial on Lagos Island where land ownership can be complex. Confirm the landlord's identity matches property documents. Never pay without a signed tenancy agreement, period. Keep all communications on ExpertListing's messaging platform for documentation.

It depends on what you value. Service charges fund professional estate management, maintained infrastructure, security, waste collection, and common area upkeep. For people who've lived in estates without proper management, the difference is night and day. You get consistent services, well-maintained roads, functional street lighting, and organized security; things you can't take for granted in Lagos. The burden shifts from individual tenants handling everything to estate management providing reliable services. If you're someone who appreciates organization, doesn't want to deal with generator sharing disputes or waste management headaches, and values your time, service charges deliver value. If you're extremely budget-conscious and willing to handle individual arrangements, you might prefer standalone buildings. Most professionals find the convenience worth the cost.
