Alternatives to Sending Money for House Construction in Nigeria – A Safer Way to Build
Get in touch on Whatsapp now:

Thinking of sending money for a house in Nigeria but worried about what could go wrong?

You’re not alone. Many Nigerians in the diaspora have lost thousands of dollars or pounds trying to support house projects back home — only to hear, “the money has finished”, with little to show for it.

If you’re looking for a better alternative to sending money for house construction in Nigeria, you’re in the right place. With Wigmore Trading, you can fund your project by paying for real materials and verified deliveries, instead of relying on risky remittance methods.


Why You Should Avoid Sending Money for House Projects

Common Problem Real Impact
💸 Misused funds Money is used for non-construction purposes
🏗️ Fake progress claims Contractors or family claim milestones without proof
❌ No documentation You get no receipts, invoices, or evidence of purchases
🔐 Fraud or middlemen losses Money gets diverted to the wrong person
📉 Exchange rate losses You lose value converting currency or paying hidden charges

A Better Way: Fund Construction by Paying for Real Deliveries

Rather than sending money for house construction in Nigeria, you can:

Buy materials directly from the UK, US, or wherever you are
Pay in your own currency (USD, GBP, EUR)
Deliver directly to your building site in Nigeria
Receive proof of every delivery with receipts and photos
