2 Bedrooms for Rent in CMS

2 bedroom flats in CMS cost ₦1,500,000 to ₦24,000,000 per year. Basic apartments start at ₦1,500,000, while units in premium commercial towers with security personnel, elevator maintenance, backup power systems, and parking privileges reach ₦24,000,000. Building quality and security features significantly affect what you'll pay. Higher floors with better views also cost more.

In Nigeria, "flat" and "apartment" mean exactly the same thing. Both terms describe self-contained residential units in a building with shared access. You'll see Lagos property listings use these words interchangeably—searching for "2 bedroom flat" or "2 bedroom apartment" in CMS yields identical results. What matters more is distinguishing these from houses, duplexes, or self-contain rooms which are structurally different.

Both options exist in CMS. Bare units run ₦1,500,000 to ₦24,000,000 per year. Want it furnished with appliances, furniture, and necessary fixtures? That'll cost you an additional ₦1,000,000 to ₦5,000,000 MORE annually—roughly 25-40% higher than unfurnished. Some buildings cater to corporate tenants with serviced apartments that include regular cleaning. Filter by furnishing status on ExpertListing to see what's available.

CMS properties come with professional building security, functional elevators, diesel generators, dedicated parking (where available), and modern plumbing systems. High-rise buildings feature CCTV surveillance, fire safety equipment, and controlled access systems. You're looking at commercial-grade electrical infrastructure and reliable water supply. Residential amenities like pools or gyms are rare since buildings primarily serve commercial tenants. The focus is on security, vertical transportation, and business-grade utilities. Always verify building-specific features with owners on ExpertListing.

ExpertListing pre-verifies all property owners, agents, and developers before they list. Each listing shows verification badges and direct contact info. But you should still: (1) Schedule a physical inspection using the map location we provide, (2) Ask to see the Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) or Governor's Consent, (3) Make sure the landlord's identity matches the property documents, (4) Never pay rent without signing a proper tenancy agreement, (5) Use ExpertListing's messaging system to document everything.

CMS and Marina are both Lagos Island business districts, so they're similar in many ways. CMS has slightly more high-rise buildings and is closer to the Central Bank area, while Marina is nearer the waterfront. Both offer minimal commute for finance folks but limited lifestyle amenities—don't expect restaurants, nightlife, or entertainment nearby. CMS may have marginally better parking in newer buildings. The real decision comes down to which is closer to your specific office. Both areas empty out significantly evenings and weekends, so if you value vibrant social scenes, you'll feel isolated. But if eliminating your commute is priority number one, either works perfectly.
