Frequently asked questions
How much is a flat in Ibadan?
A flat in Ibadan typically costs ₦400K – ₦4M+ per year, with most around ₦800K – ₦1.8M. Prices depend heavily on the neighbourhood, the condition of the building, and how new the development is. Splitting with a verified flatmate on Mushrooms can roughly halve your share.
How do I rent a flat in Ibadan without an agent?
Mushrooms connects you directly to NIN-verified hosts, so there is no 10% agent commission and no middleman. You browse verified flats & apartments, message the host in-app, and pay into escrow that only releases once you have moved in and confirmed everything matches.
Is it safe to rent a flat online in Ibadan?
On Mushrooms, yes. Every host completes NIN verification, every location is GPS-confirmed, listings use live-captured media, and your rent sits in escrow until move-in. That removes the deposit-and-disappear scam that makes renting online in Ibadan risky elsewhere.
