Nollywood actress Zainab Balogun-Nwachukwu buys new house to celebrate 33rd birthday

Nollywood actress Zainab Balogun-Nwachukwu has disclosed that she had bought a new house to celebrating her 33rd birthday.

On Monday, Balogun announced the news on her Instagram page. She also described the months-long process she went through to become a landlord.

The Chief Daddy actress admitted that her friend and co-worker Bolanle Olukanni, who also bought a property last year, served as her inspiration.

Zainab said she believed in God even though she wasn't ready to make the purchase at that time, but a year later she was able to buy her own property and find a tenant.

She took to her Instagram page and wrote:

Today I turn 33 with so much to celebrate! I enter my Jesus year with life and testimonies. If he’s not healing me than He’s shocking me with the unthinkable.

"A year ago my fav @bolanle bought a property. I watched Him do it and wanted to purchase too but I wasn’t ready by my standards. She had her testimony (a prophecy waiting to happen) and I tapped in. God repeats testimonies. He does it bigger the next time."

"A year later my agent luxe. Lagos found me the perfect place and the seller randomly gave full possession of the property before it was paid for. I needed a property lawyer for due diligence/paperwork and Holy Spirit led me to @naijapropertylawyer two weeks before I knew I would need her services. I stumbled on her page and admired her passion to educate people on how to get on the property ladder."

"Two months after my first property inspection, I secured a tenant via the seller’s agent who moved in within 10 days. The property was still a working site however @booktrueclean came to my rescue with an impeccable clean in less than 24hrs. They turned it around so quick that the tenant was able to move in earlier."

"The alignment was ridiculous! Every important request I had was granted. A leap of faith is not a step. It is a giant, ridiculous, impossible jump into the palm of God. There’s so much I want to share on the property investment journey I’ve been on. It wasn’t easy but I’d like to help someone avoid the same mistakes I made."

Some colleagues in the industry and fans on social media flooded her comment section with good will messages on her new achievement while wishing her a happy birthday.
