flag Nigeria’s 2025 Tax Act cuts housing costs with VAT exemptions, tax incentives for builders, and relief for renters—no 25% tax on materials or bank balances.

flag The Nigeria Tax Act 2025, now in effect, does not impose a 25% tax on building materials, construction funds, or bank balances as falsely claimed online. flag Instead, it reduces housing costs through a VAT exemption on land, buildings, and rent, allows contractors to recover VAT on materials, and lowers withholding tax on construction to 2%. flag Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest, and landlords may claim expenses like repairs and insurance. flag Small businesses receive zero income tax and VAT exemptions, while manufacturers of building materials get up to 10 years of tax incentives. flag Renters may receive up to ₦500,000 in annual relief, and lease agreements under ₦10 million are stamp duty-free. flag The law, signed in June 2025, aims to boost affordability, investment, and domestic production, with no 2027 implementation date.
