Go for a moderate apartment
Forget the luxury apartments for now!
You are in UNILAG to learn and not to show off. Don’t even forget you have a lean budget in the first place. So this has already placed some constraints on you. So it is important you go for apartments with moderate facilities that can serve your basic needs. But you need to understand your comfort as a student is not something you should compromise on.
Consider sharing room
Get a good apartment and split the cost with your friend.
If you are an easy going person like me, then I will advise you to consider this option. This will not only cut your future expenses by half but will also provide you with a companion to chat and run around town with.
Be an early bird
Early birds eat the fattest worm.
Sorry but I am not calling you a bird. Lol. But sometimes you need to behave like one to have the best chance of success. Don’t forget you are not the only one looking for cheap accommodation in UNILAG. In fact, 8,000 students were admitted into the school this 2018/2019 academic session while less than that number left, because of various reasons ranging from school fees and carry-over. This only means stiffer competition for cheap accommodation in Lagos. So it is important you have your money ready and close the deal once you are satisfied with the condition of the apartment.
Know all the agents
Get the names of the top Agents in UNILAG and try to know them personally.
Agents play an important role in Real Estate. Sometimes it is impossible or near impossible to let an apartment in Lagos without going through them. So knowing them personally will assist you to stay ahead of other competitors. So discuss with them the type of apartment you need and the size of your budget. This will enable them to tip you off immediately any becomes available.

Talk to your friends
Don’t just stop with the Agents. Talk to your friends.
Your friends can also be a source of valuable information. Even if they can’t help you immediately, but the truth is they will know someone who knows someone that knows a person that can help you. Apart from this, they might even know the bad Agents or the “no-go areas” to live within the environ. They would be glad to share this knowledge with you. So it is important you use your friends when looking for a cheap apartment in UNILAG and their network of friends.
Eye final year students
Seek recommendations from final year students.
This is the easiest way to get cheap accommodation in UNILAG. It is unfortunate a lot of people are not taking advantage of this. Luckily you are here:). Take a tour of the area you want to live and identify the apartments that appeal to you most. Talk to the final year students living there about the possibility of hooking you up with the Landlord once their rents are up. A simple recommendation from them will definitely give you an edge over others.
Squat with a friend
Squating is a popular cliché among Nigerian students meaning to stay with a friend till you get your accommodation. Getting cheap accommodation in UNILAG is never an easy task. So it is advisable you take your time to look for one that will match your budget without compromising your comfort and safety. It is advisable you stay with a friend throughout the period you are doing this. This will not only save you from stress but will also give you free accommodation throughout the period you will be looking for the accommodation.
