Brands We Love: Seagle Property Development Company

Seagle Property Development Company is a real estate planning, development, management and investment firm that constructs and delivers residential and commercial property in Lagos. Its market is primarily the upscale business districts and neighbourhoods of the city.

Its buildings have a contemporary look to them; Seagle appears to place a premium on its properties assuming a form that’s similar to dwellings and work spaces elsewhere in the world. As a result, it’s sought after by clients who have a taste that’s been formed through exposure to modern global standards.

Otunba Yemi Saheed Lawal founded Seagle and incorporated it in 2007. In the years that followed, he and the rest of the team at the company have steered it to prominence in Lagos’s luxury real estate scene. They continue to power on, driven by a vision of becoming the leading name in their chosen niche.

Seagle is part of the Eagleways Investment Group, a holding company that also consists of interests in Oil and Gas, Investments and Funds Management, Shipping and Marine, and Consulting. Just like its parent company, Seagle takes its name from the eagle and strives to mirror the strength and elegance of the creature.

The company has developed properties for clients in the Oniru and Ikoyi areas of Lagos—among the choicest locations in the state. They include the Stanmore Court, Seagle View, The View, Eagle Heights, and DeoGratias. They are all multistory buildings, which Seagle has fashioned with great expertise and in line with contemporary taste.

Some of the properties that it develops come with amenities that provide comfort and security for residents and commercial tenants. They include landscaped gardens, children’s play areas, fire alarm systems, surveillance systems, and fitness centres.

Since 2008, Seagle has completed at least 18 projects, with a cumulative value of about $128 million. Thus far, the properties it has constructed have yielded almost $50 million in rental income for its clients. These figures continue to inch upwards as the firm undertakes even more projects.

Seagle has won itself awards and recognition for the work that it does. It has clinched the City People Real Estate Award for the Leading Real Estate Company in Oniru for 2018, 2019, and 2021. It also received the award for Best Luxury Real Estate Company at the Real Estate Excellence Awards in 2017.

There’s still a lot of ground for Seagle to cover on the path to becoming the leading name in luxury real estate in Nigeria. But the moves that it’s made in the years since its founding suggest that it could achieve that aim in the not too distant future.
