A C of O is issued by the state government under the Land Use Act and grants the holder the right to occupy and develop the land for a defined term, usually 99 years. It is one of the strongest forms of legal backing a landowner in Delta State can hold.
Governor's Consent comes into play whenever land that already has a C of O changes hands. Without registering this consent, the new owner's claim to the land can be legally challenged, even if a Deed of Assignment was signed.
The process for both typically involves an application, land use charge payments, and processing time that can vary depending on the local government area ÔÇö whether that's Oshimili South (where Asaba is located) or elsewhere in Delta State.
Because this process can be slow and paperwork-heavy, many buyers choose to work with a team that can manage or guide them through it. At Herpavilion, documentation support is part of what we offer alongside every verified land purchase.
