Lagos’s real estate market is witnessing a transformative shift thanks to Olubisi Shaola, a leading developer dedicated to making luxury housing more affordable. Through his innovative Early Payment Incentive Model (EPIM), Shaola is expanding access to high-end properties for a broader range of buyers. In a recent interview, Shaola shared insights into his journey and the impact of his pioneering model.
Olubisi Shaola has made a name for himself in Lagos’s real estate sector with his forward-thinking approach to luxury living. He has consistently pushed the boundaries of traditional real estate. “I wanted to create homes that blend modern design with practicality,” he explains. “My goal has always been to deliver exceptional homes that meet the needs of discerning buyers.”
The Early Payment Incentive Model (EPIM) developed by Shaola is revolutionizing luxury housing by addressing affordability challenges. According to the trained property lawyer turned developer, “This model helps us secure favorable terms with suppliers, which we then pass on to our buyers.”
EPIM’s strategy involves providing cash and liquidity to vendors and suppliers before the actual need arises, ensuring timely payments and securing better pricing for materials. This method translates into cost savings for buyers, making luxury homes more accessible.
Since introducing EPIM, Shaola has attracted a diverse group of buyers who previously viewed luxury homes as unattainable. The model’s focus on affordability and flexibility has resonated with aspiring homeowners. “Our model opens up new opportunities for individuals who dream of owning a premium property,” Shaola notes. “We prioritize their needs and preferences, making the purchasing process more accessible and streamlined.”
The success of EPIM is best illustrated by the stories and testimonials of satisfied buyers. Many individuals who once thought luxury homes were beyond their reach have achieved their homeownership dreams thanks to Shaola’s model. “The incentives and discounts offered through EPIM made it possible for me to buy my dream home,” says one buyer. “It’s a game-changer for people like me.”
Shaola’s EPIM has not only made luxury housing more affordable but also expanded the market’s reach, transforming the lives of many aspiring homeowners. “Seeing the impact on people’s lives is incredibly rewarding,” Shaola reflects. “It’s about more than just building homes; it’s about making dreams true. Through his dedication to broadening access to upscale properties, he is redefining the real estate sector’s dynamics. “My goal has always been to create homes that people love and can afford,” Shaola says. “With EPIM, we’re doing just that.”
