Analysis shows that private business and government institution made strategic partnership towards the sector’s short and long term growth. During the week, Desarrollar partnered with Union Trustees, First Bank, Banwo and Ighodalo, and The Lodt Legal Partners to improve real estate solutions being offered by the existing players. 
Bank of Industry and Casafina, a private company equally made strategic move to advance the sector. BOI reaffirmed its commitment to deepen finance to the sector, while Casafina launched a property investment platform to provide sustainable solutions to funding issues. 
During the week through the Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Raji Fashola, government frowned at the 10 per cent valuer and 25 per cent reposition fees charged by professionals in the field. The Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers (NIESV) equally called for tax imposition on the sector to generate income. Players in the sector must not relent in developing innovative solutions because clients’ demographics and psychographics are no longer static.
These opportunities and threats with the 6 points have created the circumstances for the captains and professionals in the sector to work out strategies for the opportunities capturing and mitigation of the possible consequences of the threats in the coming week and beyond.
