With the launch of FBM Luxury Apartments, Nollywood actress, Mimi Orjiekwe has expanded her brand by dabbling into the real estate business.
Shedding light on her foray into the business, the thespian said: “I am still an actress and interior designer. However, I wouldn’t call myself a beauty entrepreneur anymore, because I dissolved my makeup company, Flawless Beauty by Mimi, years back when I encountered some challenges. As for real estate, I’ve been nurturing the dream for a while now. I eventually ventured into it after I bought a house and a land in 2017 and 2018 respectively and discovered how much they had appreciated in just one year. Again, it’s always a good feeling to own property, and I want to help people experience that feeling. I am in the property business to be a game changer.”
Though, launched recently, FBM Luxury Apartments has been in the works for about three years. A testament to Mimi’s dedication and vision, it boasts of luxury shortlet apartments, an addition that perfectly complements her existing interior design expertise.
Asked about the financing of her estate, Mimi revealed, “I raised money from my business as an interior designer. I have clients and get a lot of contracts from high net worth individuals, companies, commercial residential apartments, and several others. I also have a showroom in a prime location in Lagos where I sell exotic furniture. By and large, I have an investment culture, I have good investments here and there, including investment partners.”
