The Ember Months Are Here!
For investors, this is no time to sit back. It’s a season to position strategically and capitalize on one of the fastest-growing segments of the property market in Nigeria. Shortlet Apartments
The ember months are synonymous with increased travel. Nigerians in the diaspora return home for the holidays, corporate organizations host retreats and year-end functions, and families seek alternatives to crowded hotels. Lagos naturally becomes the epicenter of this movement.
Shortlet apartments, with their flexibility, privacy, and homely feel, have become the go-to option for these travelers. They offer everything a modern visitor desires: fully furnished spaces, prime locations close to business or leisure hubs, and often, more competitive pricing than luxury hotels.
This is why in places like Victoria Island, Lekki Phase 1, Ikoyi, and even emerging hotspots like Ajah and Sangotedo, shortlets see sharp increases in bookings between September and January.
For real estate investors, the ember months are an opportunity to reap premium rental yields. With higher demand comes higher occupancy rates and, in many cases, increased daily or weekly rates. Investors who already own shortlet-ready properties can maximize income, while those who act quickly still have time to acquire, furnish, and list their properties in anticipation of the seasonal rush.
It’s also important to note that shortlet demand doesn’t disappear after December. Business travelers, expatriates, and young professionals continue to drive occupancy throughout the year, making shortlets a sustainable investment model with a strong base in Lagos’ real estate market.
✅Focus on neighborhoods close to business hubs, entertainment districts, and airports.
✅Tasteful, modern interiors with amenities like reliable Wi-Fi, 24/7 power, and security make properties stand out.
✅List on shortlet platforms, optimize for visibility, and make bookings seamless.
Waiting until December to prepare is too late. The ember months are here, and savvy investors are already positioning. Whether you’re looking to diversify your portfolio, increase rental income, or simply test the waters in one of Lagos’ most profitable real estate niches, shortlets present the perfect opportunity.
