Chapter One — 1.1 Background to the Study

Over the past decade, the relationship between real estate investment trusts (reits) and rental income yield has become a subject of considerable debate among scholars and industry practitioners alike, particularly within the context of Lagos State where operating conditions differ markedly from more developed markets.

Within the context of Lagos State, this relationship carries particular significance. Organizations in this setting operate under a distinct combination of economic, regulatory, and market conditions that may amplify or dampen the effect of real estate investment trusts (reits) on rental income yield, making a context-specific inquiry both timely and necessary.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

While real estate investment trusts (reits) is widely discussed in policy and industry circles, empirical evidence on its actual effect on rental income yield within Lagos State remains sparse and, in places, contradictory. This lack of localized, rigorous evidence makes it difficult for decision-makers to know with confidence whether current approaches to real estate investment trusts (reits) are helping or hindering rental income yield — a gap this study sets out to close.
