It has been pointed out by many researchers that the housing price is affected by many factors, such as interest rate, land supply, government policies and inflation rate. The research highlighted most important aspects of the outcomes. An increase in international real estate capital flows could foster increasing demand for stronger institutions across a global real estate market. The method adopted in this research was quantitative through which 100 questionnaires were developed and distributed within the study area (Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa and Yobe States). The simple percentage was used to analyzed the data collected. The research is exploratory in nature; hence, a non-probability purposive sampling technique was used for the study. The finding of the research vindicated that real estate investment has a significant role in sharpening the economy of the region, and also the findings revealed that real estate investment opportunity is huge. And again for suggested that housing provision cannot be realized only by private individual excerpts through government intervention. The study concludes that real estate investment, if explore it will create a reliable return to the investment owners, the benefits that can be derived from real estate investment, has been revealed by this study.

“…The built environment comprises "the buildings, structures and associated constructed facilities which make up our various environments. It is the outcome of the choices we make as we continue to manage the earth and exploit its resources (Onwuanyi and Oyetunji, 2016).At any point in time, the built environment consists of what is inherited, what has been created or is being created and what has been re-shaped, which together, comprise what one generation shall leave behind as legacy for its successors. Such legacy, in the form of the structures and sites is what constitutes built heritage.…”

This paper describes some benefits of crime mapping in a Geographic Information Systems (G.I.S.) environment. The underlining principle of Journey to Crime was discussed. Crime Spots and Police Stations in the study area were mapped, Shortest-Path, Closest Facility, Service Area and OD (Origin-Destination) Cost Matrix were determined based on Dijkstra's Algorithm. Results show that the distribution of police stations does not correspond with the spread of crime spots.

Recognition of built heritage and its preservation are issues of importance to communities and nations for reasons such as learning, identity, tourism among others. However, knowledge of what constitutes built heritage is essential if it is to be properly assessed. This paper investigates what qualities define built heritage in Nigeria using as case studies two well-known national assets: the National Stadium and National Arts Theatre in Lagos. Empirical data for the study are obtained from both physical inspection and public opinion. A survey questionnaire was purposely administered on randomly selected patrons of each of the facilities. Findings are that the two facilities possess significance as built heritage, but are neglected, moribund and not officially so acknowledged. Given plans to dispose of, rather than restore and preserve these facilities, the paper highlights heritage consciousness by drawing attention to the nature and defining characteristics of Nigeria’s built heritage, the utter neglect of these two examples and the need to reverse the situation. The nexus between built heritage and the built environment is highlighted as further justification for restoring these assets being important components of the built environment of Lagos and, therefore, the built heritage of Nigeria.
