ABSTRACT  Property rating in Nigeria is a major contribution of knowledge in the area of rating administration in Nigeria has not been accorded the priority it deserves as an important item of re  venue for local government authorities which rely mainly on funds from the federation account.  In developed countries of the world, local government authorities depend to a large extent on the revenue from property rating to finance their programmers.  Because most local governments are cash strapped and indigent. They find it almost impossible to function efficiently most of them have no deeply entrenched viable revenue base.  This thesis proffers solution to the problems in order to solve the perennial shortage of skilled manpower in rating administration.            TABLE OF CONTENT  Title page i Certification page ii Dedication iii Abstract iv Table of contentv
