How Lagos smart city projects are transforming real estate investment opportunities in 2025

Lagos has always been the heartbeat of Nigeria’s economy, but in 2025, the game has completely changed. Smart city projects like Eko Atlantic, Alaro City, and Lekki Free Zone are not just buzzwords anymore — they are real, thriving hubs that are redefining real estate investment opportunities in Lagos

If you’re thinking about buying, investing, or simply understanding where the next big wave is in property, this is the right time to pay attention.

What is a Smart City?

A smart city uses digital technology and data to make life easier, safer, and more efficient for residents. Think better roads, uninterrupted electricity, clean water, efficient waste management, and smart housing — all working together like clockwork.

Lagos is on a mission to create cities that think, learn, and adapt, making it one of the fastest emerging smart hubs in Africa.

Major Lagos Smart City Projects to Watch in 2025

1. Eko Atlantic City

Eko Atlantic is often called the “Dubai of Africa,” and rightly so. Built on reclaimed land from the Atlantic Ocean, this city offers:

World-class residential apartments
Top-grade commercial offices
Luxury hotels and entertainment zones
Property prices in Eko Atlantic are rising fast, with a strong influx of international investors

2. Alaro City

Located within the Lekki Free Zone, Alaro City is designed for mixed-use — industrial, commercial, and residential purposes.

It promises:

Industrial warehouses
Modern homes
Commercial spaces
Green parks and world-class roads
Good News: Early investors are already reaping returns as land prices have appreciated significantly since launch.

3. Lekki Free Zone

This project is a full package — industries, ports (Lekki Deep Sea Port), and residential areas, all integrated with technology for easy living.
The Lekki-Epe axis is exploding with demand for residential and industrial real estate.

Why Smart Cities Are Shaping the Future of Real Estate Investment

High Demand for Housing: Tech professionals and foreign investors moving into these smart cities will need accommodation.
Strong Rental Yields: Short-let apartments and high-end rentals in these zones are already fetching excellent returns.
Better Infrastructure: Investors love stable electricity, good roads, and security — all essentials in smart cities.
Increase in Land Value: Buying early in or near these projects can multiply your investment within a few years.

Areas Around Smart Cities You Should Be Watching

Now is the Time to Position Yourself

The Lagos smart city revolution is not something to watch from afar — it’s happening now. Early movers are locking down prime properties, while others will pay premium prices later. If you have been thinking about owning real estate in Lagos, focusing on smart city areas is your golden ticket.

Adron Homes Chairman Commends Oyo State’s Real Estate Reforms, Urges Policy Continuity

The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Adron Group, Aare Adetola Emmanuelking, KOF, has commended the Oyo State Government for its bold reforms in the real estate sector, describing the state as a land of “history, enterprise, and endless possibilities.”

Aare Adetola remarked while delivering a goodwill message titled “The Real Estate Called Oyo State” at the 2025 Oyo State Real Estate Conference, held in Ibadan.

The event, themed “Real Estate and Economic Development in Oyo State: Strategies for Success,” brought together top real estate developers, government officials, and investors to discuss strategies for improving housing delivery and driving economic growth in the state.

Organised by the Office of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Housing and Urban Development in collaboration with the Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), the conference highlighted the need for policy stability, public-private partnerships, and innovation in real estate development.

In his address, the Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to transparency and investor confidence through the digitalisation of land records (OYOGIS), improved urban planning, and major infrastructure upgrades across the state.

He also cited the passage of the Oyo State Land Control and Administration Bill, 2023, and the establishment of the Anti-Land Grabbing Task Force as key reforms curbing land disputes and promoting sustainable property ownership. Ogundoyin praised major developers such as Adron Homes and MKH Properties for their role in boosting investor trust in the Oyo property market.

In his goodwill message, Aare Adetola Emmanuelking applauded the administration of Governor Seyi Makinde, FNSE, for maintaining consistency in land policies and governance structures, which he said had continued to attract serious investors to Oyo State.

He recalled that Adron Homes made its foray into Ibadan nearly a decade ago based on the state’s stable policy environment, a decision that has since yielded impressive results. He, however, urged the state government and future administrations to ensure policy continuity, warning that inconsistency could derail the progress already achieved.

The conference ended with a collective resolve by stakeholders to deepen collaboration between the public and private sectors, strengthen regulatory transparency, and create a business environment that will make Oyo State a model for real estate investment in Nigeria.
