You’ve been house-hunting for weeks.
Every weekend, you hop buses, sit through Lagos traffic, pay ₦5K – ₦10K to a smiling agent… only to walk into a cramped apartment with peeling walls and a landlord that insists you pay two years upfront.
It’s frustrating. It’s tiring. And worst of all, you’re still searching.
But you’re not alone.
Here’s Tolu’s, a Lagosian who just made a smart play.
Tolu is a 29-year-old working-class guy in Lagos. In March, he made the decision to move out of his shared apartment and get a place of his own. That’s when the real struggle began.
He paid one agent ₦5K. Moving from the Island, to the mainland, even the other lands….Lol
Another asked him to “just send another ₦3K for transport.”
One Saturday, he paid ₦13K to inspect two houses; only to end up in Mushin, far from his workplace in Lekki. Omo, the struggle…..
In just one month, Tolu had spent over ₦50,000 on agent fees and inspections.
Still no house. Still shuffling addresses like a Spotify playlist. Still tired.
But it wasn’t just the money. It was the stress of chasing agents who stopped picking his calls.
The heartbreak of walking into buildings that looked nothing like the photos. And the pressure of landlords demanding full annual rent upfront.
Tolu was already giving up, he had picked up the phone to call his previous roommate to further discuss going back to squat.
Until that same day, just as he picked up the phone one last time to check for listings on IG, he found Rent Smallsmall.
Tolu’s story isn’t rare. It’s the norm for many Lagosians. It is one a little too familiar to the most of Lagos residents.
The average person looking for a house in Lagos spends ₦15K–₦30K on inspection fees alone, often without finding a single decent home.
Then there’s:
The endless back and forth with agents who don’t care if the house suits you; as long as they collect their inspection fee.
The emotional drain of packing hope into every Saturday, only to return home empty.
The ridiculous landlord demands; asking for two years’ rent, legal fees, caution fees, agency fees, and “you gree” money. With agents still asking for tips after concluding with the landlord, this is just draining.
It’s not just stressful. It’s unfair.
How we changed the game, yes, literally.
When Tolu found Rent Smallsmall, it felt different.
– There was no middleman playing games.
– The apartments were verified.
– He didn’t have to pay anyone to view a house.
– And best of all, he could spread his rent monthly.
He finally got a clean, secure apartment on the Island, very close to the office.
No pressure. No scam. No bulk rent demands.
Here’s what Rent Smallsmall offers you, just like it did for Tolu:
✅ Free inspections; no more ₦5K gone with no results
✅ Verified listings only; no fake pictures or bait houses
✅ Monthly payment options; pay for your rent like your salary comes
✅ No agents chasing you for tips
✅ Peace of mind; because finding a home shouldn’t feel like punishment
If You’re Tired, You’re Not Alone
Renting in Lagos shouldn’t be a luxury reserved for the rich.
It should be fair, accessible, and stress-free.
You’ve wasted enough money on disappointment.
Now it’s time to house-hunt with clarity and confidence.
