Tied to your escrow · Field-verified · Not a public certificate

The Document Looks Genuine.
Until It Isn't.

Before money changes hands, confirm every property document is real. Propzora field agents physically visit the relevant government authority — AGIS, Land Registry, CAC — and verify on-site. A property check happens from inside a specific escrow, once your funds are locked and protected — not as a standalone public lookup.

Physical on-site verification Escrow-specific, never reused Nigerian law compliant

Where to start a property check

There's no separate verification portal — a property check is requested from inside the escrow it belongs to. Lock your funds in escrow first, then choose "Request Propzora to check the property" from your dashboard.

Secure property transactions

Every document type. Every government authority.

Our field agents physically visit the issuing authority to confirm authenticity. No remote guesswork — boots on the ground.

Certificate of Occupancy (C of O)

Confirmed at the State Land Registry. We check ownership records, encumbrances, and that no revocation order exists.

Land Registry

Deed of Assignment

We confirm the deed is stamped, registered, and that the chain of title is clean with no conflicting claims on record.

Land Registry

Survey Plan

Checked at the Office of the Surveyor General. We confirm the plan is filed, coordinates match, and the land is not under acquisition.

Surveyor General

Governor's Consent

We confirm the consent was duly granted and is on record at the appropriate ministry. Required for any transfer under the Land Use Act.

Ministry of Lands

Gazette / Excision

We check whether the land in question has been excised from government acquisition and is legally available for private ownership.

State Gazette Office

CAC Search (Corporate Seller)

If the seller is a company, we run a CAC status check to confirm the entity exists, is active, and has authority to sell the property.

From escrow to a completed check

1

Lock funds in escrow, then request a check

Once your purchase funds are locked in a Propzora escrow, choose "Request Propzora to check the property" and select which document types apply — you only pay for what's relevant to this property.

2

The seller submits the documents

The seller is notified and has 48 hours to upload the requested documents. If they don't, the request expires automatically and your fee is refunded — your escrow stays active either way.

3

We check them, on-site where needed

A Propzora field agent physically visits the relevant government office — Land Registry, AGIS, Surveyor General, CAC — to confirm the document on-site, then a reviewer signs off on the result.

✓

You see the result — you decide when to release funds

The result appears inside your escrow, visible only to you and the seller — never a public page anyone can look up. A completed check is supporting information: you still explicitly confirm the transaction is complete before releasing the funds.

Pay only for the documents that apply.

Each document type has its own flat fee. When you request a check, you pick which ones apply to your property — the total is shown before you pay.

C of O, Deed of Assignment, Governor's Consent, Survey Plan, Gazette, or CAC search — select the ones this property needs.

  • Physical on-site visit to issuing authority
  • Result recorded against your escrow
  • Auto-refunded if the seller doesn't submit in time
  • Visible only to you and the seller — never public

Fake documents are the #1 cause of property fraud in Nigeria

A forged C of O, a duplicated deed, a survey plan with wrong coordinates — these are not rare edge cases. They happen in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, every day. By the time you discover it, your money is gone. Verification before transaction is not optional — it is the transaction.
