This Agreement is designed as a comprehensive legal framework governing every interaction, engagement, transaction, communication, and relationship between the User and Arenas Homes Gardens Developers & Constructions Company Limited. It is intentionally structured to go beyond conventional website terms by integrating real estate law principles, contractual obligations, tenancy frameworks, development control systems, and digital platform governance. The objective is to eliminate ambiguity, reduce interpretational loopholes, and provide a clearly enforceable structure under Nigerian law.
This Agreement shall be interpreted as a legally binding contract from the moment a User accesses the Platform, regardless of whether the User completes registration, initiates payment, or engages in formal transactions. The User acknowledges that digital interaction, including passive browsing, constitutes acceptance of the legal framework presented herein. The Company’s intention is to establish a system where all users operate within a controlled, predictable, and legally secure environment that protects both operational integrity and long-term project sustainability.
This Agreement applies uniformly and without limitation to all categories of users interacting with the Platform. These include prospective buyers, existing clients, tenants, investors, referral agents, consultants, administrative personnel, and even casual visitors who consume informational content. The breadth of this applicability is intentional, ensuring that no interaction with the Platform exists outside the legal coverage of this Agreement.
Each category of user may engage with the Platform in different capacities; however, all are bound by the same foundational legal structure. Where specific provisions apply uniquely to a category (such as tenancy obligations or agent conduct), such provisions shall be interpreted as extensions of this Agreement rather than separate frameworks. This ensures legal continuity and prevents fragmentation of responsibility or accountability across user types.
By continuing to use the Platform, the User explicitly confirms that they have read, understood, and agreed to all provisions contained within this Agreement. The User further waives any right to claim ignorance, misunderstanding, or lack of awareness of any clause, whether in part or in full. This waiver is critical in establishing enforceability and ensuring that disputes cannot arise from claims of non-awareness.
The Company recognizes that the length and detail of this Agreement exceed conventional documents; however, such depth is intentional and necessary to address the complexity of real estate transactions and digital platform operations. Users are therefore strongly advised to review this Agreement thoroughly before engaging further. Continued usage shall serve as conclusive evidence of informed consent.
This Agreement shall override all verbal discussions, informal communications, marketing representations, or third-party explanations relating to the Company’s services. No statement made outside this document shall be considered legally binding unless formally incorporated into a written agreement executed by the Company. Users are therefore required to rely solely on official documentation and not on verbal assurances, promotional language, or unofficial interpretations.
The Arenas Homes Digital Platform is a proprietary system developed and maintained exclusively by the Company. It serves as a centralized digital infrastructure for managing real estate transactions, user registrations, property information, tenant coordination, and administrative oversight. As such, the Platform is not a public utility but a controlled environment governed entirely by the Company’s internal policies, operational standards, and strategic objectives.
Ownership of the Platform includes not only the visible interface but also the underlying systems, databases, algorithms, and administrative tools that power its functionality. Users interact only with the accessible layer of the Platform, while the Company retains full control over backend operations, including data processing, system updates, and access permissions.
The Company reserves the unrestricted right to modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any aspect of the Platform at any time without prior notice. This includes changes to features, user access levels, system architecture, content presentation, and service availability. No User shall have the right to demand continuity of any specific feature or functionality, nor shall any claim arise from temporary or permanent unavailability of the Platform.
While the Platform is designed to provide reliable access to information and services, the Company does not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Users are advised not to rely solely on the Platform for time-sensitive decisions, financial commitments, or legal conclusions. The Company shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience arising from system downtime, technical errors, data delays, or access restrictions.
The Platform functions primarily as a digital interface for engagement, registration, and information dissemination. It is not, in itself, a legal instrument for property transfer, allocation, or ownership confirmation. Under no circumstances shall registration, payment, or application submission be interpreted as conferring ownership or allocation rights. Ownership or allocation shall only be recognized upon completion of full payment obligations, execution of legally binding documents, issuance of official allocation confirmation, and compliance with all regulatory requirements. The Company retains full authority to adjust, reassign, or revoke property allocations where necessary due to layout restructuring, regulatory directives, project redesign, payment default, or dispute resolution.
All payments made to the Company are strictly non-refundable. This policy is grounded in the nature of real estate development, where funds are actively deployed into land procurement, documentation, infrastructure works, professional services, and regulatory compliance processes. Once a payment is made, the Company immediately allocates such funds toward operational and project-specific obligations. Exceptions may only arise at the sole discretion of the Company. The User expressly agrees that dissatisfaction, personal financial challenges, or change of intention shall not constitute valid grounds for refund claims.
Payments made on behalf of a User by third parties shall be deemed fully valid and binding on the User. Failure to meet agreed payment timelines constitutes a default, and the Company reserves the right to revoke provisional allocation, reassign the property, retain all payments made, impose additional charges or penalties, or restrict further participation in the project.
Users are required to provide accurate, complete, and verifiable information at all times. Submission of false, misleading, or incomplete information may result in immediate disqualification, cancellation of applications, legal action, or forfeiture of payments. Users assume full responsibility for financial planning, investment choices, payment commitments, and risk evaluation. The Company does not provide financial advisory services.
All tenancy relationships must be formalized through written agreements. Properties are designated strictly for residential use unless explicitly approved otherwise. Prohibited activities include commercial operations without approval, illegal activities, environmental violations, and structural misuse. Tenants are responsible for maintaining the property in good condition and for managing all utility obligations, including electricity, water, sanitation, and security contributions.
The Company maintains strict control over all development activities to ensure uniformity, quality, and compliance with regulatory standards. All construction activities must be approved by the Company prior to commencement. Unauthorized construction may result in demolition of structures, financial penalties, or revocation of property rights.
The order of authority is: Deed of Assignment, Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), Certificate of Allocation, Survey Documents, Platform Content. Information presented on the Platform is for guidance only and does not constitute legally binding commitments. Users must rely on executed documents for legal certainty.
The User expressly acknowledges that real estate development and property acquisition within Nigeria operate within a dynamic and sometimes unpredictable environment influenced by legal, regulatory, economic, social, and community-related variables. The Company shall not be held liable for any loss, delay, or adjustment arising from government actions, regulatory changes, community disputes, or environmental constraints. Reallocation of plots is an acceptable remedy; financial refunds are not the default resolution.
All disputes arising under this Agreement shall follow a mandatory sequence: direct negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and only then litigation. The Company shall have a maximum period of forty-eight (48) months to address, resolve, or adjust any issue arising from regulatory actions, project delays, allocation disputes, structural changes, or external disruptions. During this period, the User shall not initiate hostile legal action, and reallocation of comparable value shall be accepted without refund presumption.
Agents operate as independent intermediaries and do not possess authority to bind the Company contractually, financially, or legally beyond what is expressly documented in official written communications issued directly by the Company. Any statement not supported by official written documentation is unauthorized and non-binding. The Company shall not be held liable for any loss, damage, misunderstanding, or dispute arising from the actions, omissions, negligence, or misconduct of any Agent. Users bear full responsibility for verifying the authenticity, credibility, and authorization status of any Agent they engage with.
The Company retains absolute and centralized administrative control over the entire Platform, including all systems, databases, user interfaces, backend operations, and decision-making processes. The Company reserves the unrestricted right to access, review, analyze, and monitor all data submitted or generated by Users on the Platform for purposes including verification, fraud prevention, compliance enforcement, operational management, and dispute resolution. All administrative decisions are final and binding unless reviewed internally.
Users agree not to disclose, reproduce, distribute, or share any confidential information obtained through the Platform without prior written consent from the Company. The Company implements reasonable and industry-standard security measures to protect User data, but no digital system is entirely immune to risks. The Company shall not be held liable for breaches beyond its reasonable control.
Users are strictly prohibited from engaging in hacking attempts, unauthorized access, data scraping, system interference, distribution of malicious software, or manipulation of system processes. Violations may lead to account suspension, permanent termination, legal proceedings, and financial recovery of damages.
Force majeure events (natural disasters, government actions, regulatory changes, civil unrest, war, strikes, economic instability, infrastructure failures, public health emergencies) suspend obligations and extend timelines without penalty. No claim or liability shall arise against the Company during such periods.
Under no circumstances shall the Company be held liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, special, or exemplary damages. The total cumulative liability of the Company shall be strictly limited to the actual amount paid by the User to the Company in relation to the specific transaction or engagement that gave rise to the claim. The Company shall not be held liable for any actions, omissions, failures, delays, or misconduct attributable to third parties or external entities. By engaging with the Platform, the User assumes full responsibility for all risks associated with real estate investment or occupancy.
The User irrevocably agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, including its directors, shareholders, employees, officers, agents, consultants, affiliates, and any authorized representatives, from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses of any kind whatsoever arising from the User’s conduct. This indemnity survives termination and has no financial cap.
The Company retains absolute, unilateral, and discretionary authority to suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate any User’s access to the Platform at any time, with or without prior notice, for violation of any clause within this Agreement, fraudulent activity, failure to meet financial obligations, or any conduct deemed harmful. Termination does not relieve prior obligations; all payments remain non-refundable. No liability arises from termination actions.
All intellectual property rights associated with the Platform remain the exclusive and absolute property of Arenas Homes Gardens Developers & Constructions Company Limited. Users are strictly prohibited from copying, reproducing, modifying, distributing, reverse engineering, or creating derivative works based on any component of the Platform. Unauthorized use shall be considered theft of intellectual property and may result in civil litigation, criminal prosecution, and financial penalties.
The Company reserves the absolute right to amend, modify, revise, update, or replace any part of this Agreement at any time, without requiring prior consent from Users. Any modifications become effective immediately upon publication on the Platform. Continued use of the Platform after such updates constitutes full acceptance of the revised Terms. Users are responsible for periodically reviewing the Agreement.
This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. All disputes shall first attempt resolution through Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) before litigation. The courts of the Federal Republic of Nigeria shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any legal proceedings arising from or related to this Agreement.
The User confirms that they have carefully read, fully understood, and voluntarily agreed to all provisions contained in this Agreement. The User expressly waives any right to challenge this Agreement on the basis of ignorance, misunderstanding, or misinterpretation. This document constitutes the entire Agreement between the Company and the User and supersedes all prior discussions, communications, representations, or agreements, whether oral or written. Upon acceptance, this Agreement becomes legally binding and irrevocable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
