“A thoroughly insightful book which analyses the concept, strategy and execution required when creating and launching a complex investment vehicle in a developing financial market. The author masterfully connects the dots, linking accessibility to investment instruments by all classes of investors, viability of the instruments and the regulatory and tax requirements for these instruments to the success of the financial markets and the real estate sector.
This book offers readers a complete view of the complex and varied aspects around REITs and tackles the drivers for a successful launch. This book has surely arrived at the right time. With the spike in real estate investments and projected economic recovery, maybe we can expect the launch of a new REITs.”

“At a time when many are comfortable with the status quo and are afraid of ploughing hitherto uncharted terrains, Ogunniran stood out as an apostle of “innovative thinking”. REIT is one of the time-tested derivative instruments that had been deployed in advanced economies to grow their housing finance system. Being a trailblazer does not come cheap especially in a highly corrupt economy that defies economics principles and where it is easier to pursue a wrong course than the right one. To pioneer the REIT development in Nigeria and use this long-term finance mechanism to fund several projects and persisted at working with financial regulators in Nigeria to remove bottlenecks that could hinder its evolution is highly commendable. This book deals with the evolution, challenges and prospects in Nigeria. It is a guide to Real Estate Developers who are in dare need of appropriate and affordable fund for their projects especially at a time of a global recession when investors are compelled to look inward to fund their projects.”
