“Our core mandate is to develop a decent housing estate for the people of Oyo state and the interested people across world.”
“The Federal government should support the private sector like ours by investing more in the area of infrastructural development for instance this Iwo-Osogbo-Ibadan road is a Federal road but it has been taken over by Oyo state government, so they need to support us through investing in infrastructural development because access to where you live is very critical for home buyers and residents, estates like, so when the invest in Infrastructural development we as a stakeholders will complement their efforts by building a low income estate for people that can afford it.”
“The federal government can also partner with federal mortgage banks by injecting more funds into them and make it delibrated for them to give out loans to the civil servants and other people too, all of us known that the cost of materials for building project is very high now in the country and we always consider the cost of production before selling out our homes, it is what we buy that we sell, the federal government should partner with mortgage banks and give them a standing order to partner with the state government like Oyo state so they can develop a mass housing estate for the lower earners.”
“They can support us with provison of lands, and other logistics, as an investors and builders, we will build low housing estates for the masses.Federal government can also subsidize the price of these housing for period of years for the civil servant and they will be living comfortably doing other things as well paying for their homes.”
“The cost of building materials is high, the government need to look into it, because buying the land is just like crossing one of the hurdles in building a house to a particular standard, building is a capital intensive project and it’s because of the current floating and high cost of the building materials we are experiencing that resulted into the higher prices of some housing estate we have around, for instance cement is produced in Nigeria but we are buying it at the expensive rate, government need to critically address this issue.”
“The Federal Government should emulate what the Oyo State government is doing currently by creating more enabling environment for private investors to come and do business with them, for example Rayfield Gardens City Estate is a partnership project with Oyo state government targeting the medium and high income earners, the federal government which is the apex seat of government in the country can also adopt that model and channel it to mass housing for low income earners, once we can have this in place it will be a success for people, it is what they can do, it is doable for both the federal government and the stakeholders like us.” Laja said.

Temitope further said, “this is as an idea to build a legacy, and we approached the state government for the approval and we got the approval in June 2020, this is a smart housing development meaning we are going to have uninterrupted power supply, potable water supply and other basic amenities and it is going to be the first of it’s kind in Oyo state.”
While speaking on the uniqueness of the estate, Temitope said, one of the uniqueness of the Rayfield Gardens City Estate is that it’s going to be a mini city where we have designed it to serve as a residential and commercial purposes.
