Abstract

This study carried out a comparative analysis of property developers’ experiences with the planning approval process (PAP) in Ogun and Oyo States of Nigeria. Purposive and convenience sampling techniques were adopted in the selection of property developers surveyed. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection and analysis was conducted with Statistical Package for Social Sciences (IBM SPSS Statistics 26). Major findings indicate that the property developers were mostly high-income in Ogun State and medium-income in Oyo State. It was established that the trend in awareness of PAP among property developers was on the rise in Ogun State, whereas a decline was experienced in Oyo State at some point. The satisfaction with PAP was significant among the property developers in the study areas but relatively higher in Oyo State. Property developers also displayed a willingness to participate in a discourse on PAP, though a greater proportion of those expressing such willingness was from Oyo State. The primary problem of PAP in both Ogun and Oyo States is the time-consuming nature of the process. This study concludes with recommendations that would facilitate the efficient delivery of the PAP towards ensuring sustainable development.
