For a 2 Bedrooms flat in VGC, you're looking at ₦7,000,000 to ₦7,000,000 per year. Entry-level apartments begin around ₦7,000,000, whereas premium units in high-rise buildings with elevator access, modern architecture, and enhanced views reach ₦7,000,000. Building type and floor level significantly impact pricing. Estate service charges are separate and mandatory—factor those into your budget.

Across Lagos and VGC, "flat" and "apartment" refer to identical property types. Both mean self-contained units within larger residential buildings where multiple households live. You'll see landlords and agents switch between these terms freely.

VGC offers both options. Unfurnished units cost ₦7,000,000 to ₦7,000,000 per year. Furnished properties with quality appliances, contemporary furniture, and full fittings will run you an extra ₦1,400,000 to ₦6,600,000 MORE annually—usually 25-40% higher.
