ABUJA, Nigeria Real estate development firm De Velli Group has unveiled De Velli Apex Dawaki, a new land investment project situated within News Engineering Estate in the Dawaki district of Abuja, as part of its broader effort to expand structured real estate investment opportunities in the Federal Capital Territory.
The development spans approximately three hectares of land and is designed to provide an estimated 70+ residential plots within a planned estate environment. The initiative is aimed at investors interested in land banking opportunities and residential development in fast-growing urban corridors of Abuja.
Dawaki has in recent years emerged as one of the capital’s expanding residential zones, driven by increasing infrastructure development and the gradual expansion of the city toward surrounding districts. Industry observers note that early investment in such areas often benefits from long-term value appreciation as infrastructure and residential demand grow.
According to De Velli Group, the Apex Dawaki project is strategically located within an already developing neighbourhood with road connectivity and proximity to several emerging real estate developments.
The site is located close to Sonora City by Mshel Homes, a major private residential development within the area. A developing access route expected to link the community to Katampe Extension is also projected to improve accessibility and strengthen the investment potential of the location in the coming years.
Beyond its location advantages, the project sits within a naturally scenic environment characterised by rock formations, green landscapes, and open natural spaces, offering a setting that blends residential development with surrounding natural features.
Speaking on the launch of the project, the Chief Executive Officer of De Velli Group, Dr Daniel Christopher Oduola, said the initiative was designed to make strategic land investment more accessible to a wider segment of property investors.
Real estate remains one of the most dependable vehicles for long-term wealth preservation and growth. With the launch of De Velli Apex Dawaki, we are creating an opportunity for both seasoned investors and first-time buyers to participate in land banking within a prime and fast-developing district of Abuja,” he said.
The estate will offer two plot configurations, including 250 square metre plots suitable for terrace housing developments and 500 square metre plots designed for detached residential homes.
Michael Obinna, Head of Sales and Marketing at De Velli Apex, noted that the company’s campaign around the project would focus on both investor education and market awareness.
Our objective is not only to market land but also to educate potential investors on the value of strategic land banking, particularly in emerging locations such as Dawaki where development is steadily expanding,” he said.
According to the company, infrastructure development within the estate is currently underway, with the overall project expected to be delivered within a three-year development timeline.
De Velli Group also confirmed that the property carries Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) Right of Occupancy documentation, providing buyers with recognised land title within the Federal Capital Territory.
Real estate analysts continue to identify land banking as one of the fastest-growing property investment strategies in Nigeria, particularly in expanding cities such as Abuja where infrastructure growth often drives rapid land value appreciation.
With its strategic location, secure documentation, and natural surroundings, De Velli Apex Dawaki is expected to attract investors seeking early entry into one of Abuja’s developing residential corridors.
