State overview
Port Harcourt, the capital of Rivers State, is one of Nigeria’s most economically active cities due to its strong oil and gas industry presence. This drives consistent demand for residential, commercial, and short-let properties. High-demand areas such as GRA Phase 1 & 2, Old GRA, and Trans Amadi attract corporate tenants and high-income earners. Meanwhile, developing areas like Woji, Eliozu, Rumuokoro, and Oyigbo offer more affordable investment opportunities with strong growth potential. The city benefits from steady rental demand driven by multinational oil companies, contractors, and professionals. However, investors must carefully verify land titles due to occasional disputes and overlapping claims in some areas. Despite infrastructure challenges, Port Harcourt remains a high-yield rental market with strong cash flow potential for investors.
