Abstract: The study evaluated the effects of extrinsic factors on the patronage of residential apartments across banks in Ekiti State. The study adopted a survey research design with well structured 5-Linkert research instrument. The population for the study was 546 employees of the 16 bank branches in Ado-Ekiti metropolis out of which 230 respondents were chosen using stratified random techniques with each bank representing a stratum. Data collected were analyzed using simple percentage statistics such as descriptive and inferential statistics while Jackknife multiple regression was used to analyze the data. The results also showed that location and rental value were positive and significantly determined patronage of residential by bankers (β =4.464, p < 0.05). It was also revealed that physical infrastructure and security were significant but negatively related (β = 1.723, p = 0.05). The study concluded that patronage of residential was a function of facility type, location, and class of residence.
