Countless people have lived and worked in Lagos, for example, for more than 20 years and yet unable to boast of any real property investment in their portfolio. They've spent their life earnings on rents from one part of the city to another as their income grew and pathetically, they've retired or are near it and begin to regret when they look back. To the younger generation, this is a clarion call to begin to act now as little steps and efforts count a lot. There are several mortgage options one can subscribe to if found credit-worthy. Know that it's better to be your own Lord than be at the mercy of some unscrupulous landlords out there who increase their rent anyhow and at anytime without due recourse to recommendations of the law.
Now, average annual rent of a family-sized flat on Lagos Mainland is N450,000; and average relocation time to a new apartment is 5 years. Therefore, over 20 years, one could have spent roughly N10m on rents alone. Truth be told that this sum of money isn't easily come by at once for an average income earner but with diligent, disciplined efforts, one can work out ambitious projects to secure his future, the how of which is the purpose for this post.
Health before wealth is one of the most germane points we'll consider here because we are talking from a TDE-smart-home point of view - a solution from the stables of KORP Properties (an indigenous company) and Thorpe Development East (an American company) that is here to change our living narrative. Thorpe Development East smart homes are here to give us a whole new, pleasant living experience hitherto unknown in this part of the world. IMAGINE a home that feels you, interacts with you and takes care of you as much as you take care of it - that is the level we are taking you to. Remember it is when you are healthy that you'll be able to take care of your home, plan your future and save a lot of health-related costs - that's one cogent point we're making here because it is only until then we can begin talking sustainability.

Another significant fact that proves building a TDE smart home is more sustainable than renting a house is its green, eco- and energy-friendly advantage.
