Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 12:31am On Sep 26, 2014
House owners especially those who buy newly built houses are actually spending double the actual cost of the building.
Average price for a finished Four-Five Bedroom fully detach house around Ajah-Sangotedo axis is around Forty Million Naira (40M) price. And most of these houses sit on less than half plot.

You can actually buy a half plot or buy a whole plot and divide it into halves and build at half the price you will pay for a finished building just within 12 weeks in the same area. That is saving about Twenty Million Naira (20M).

Some are aware of this but most are not. Those that are aware do cite factors like Omo-onile, Time, Rigor, building lonesomeness, environment and amenities.

These factors named above can be eliminated if cutting cost is your top priority if you intend having a building of your own.

Omo-onile: With proper searching and documentation, one can get trouble free piece of land for building. We have a lawyer in the house. I mean “Omo-Onile Lawyer” who can help you do proper search/verification and documentation before you commit your money.
Also, there are many estates around that sell land with all the necessary documents procured. You can purchase one from them. And that will eliminate factors such as: building lonesomeness, Omo-Onile charges, bad environment and amenities.

Rigor: There is little or no difference in the stress involve if you are buying a building or constructing yours. Just get into a contract with an experienced engineer or construction P. manager or an architect for advice on design, planning, cost and construction of the building. It is advisable to let the consultant/contractor do everything to keep cost low.

Time: A two Floor building can be ready just within 10 to 12 weeks. That means, you can actually have your own Four-Five Bedroom detach house ready within the same time you will use in searching for a building to buy.

Apart from the cost advantage, there is this excitement that is associated with being involved in the building process of one’s House project. It is worth trying.

Also, you will have the advantage of having your house designed in a way that truly reflects your desire if you build your own.

Below are some Building designs that fall within the budget of 20 Million Naira inclusive of land cost. There is one of them that we are constructing now at Olive Park Estate, Oko Ado by Bus Bis Petrol Station. The land is 925sqm and it will contain three buildings of one of these designs. And Another one is inside Lekki Gardens Phase 1 (Private).

This is coming from McDEN Building Construction. We are into Architectural Designs, Building Construction and Construction Management. For more information, visit us at the below address:

2 of these designs sit comfortably on a plot of land. That means, for a plot of land you can have double value.
Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 6:30pm On Oct 22, 2014
These designs (half the cost) are not only limited to 2 floor fully detached buildings only.

This is another design that you can get at half the cost of the building if you are buying it finished in the real estate market.
It consists of 2 apartments of 3 bedroom at the upper floor while the ground floor consist of 2 apartment 2 bedroom each.
It sits on a half plot of land (30 X 120 ft) or (9 X 36 M)
Have a look.

@micomoh

how much will dat 4 flat cost on a dry land in ogun state?
Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by mufutau55(m): 4:25pm On Oct 28, 2014
Seconded... That is maximizing land use... I love it. Good work.
What is the actual dimension of the building... and also will there be some land space in front of the flats, if so, how many feet?

Hajji M.
Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 4:48pm On Oct 28, 2014
@bebe2 this design will cost 16M. Note this is an estimate and not a quote.
Before I can give a quote, some factors have to be determined.
Like:
Benchmark, soil type, access, current price at local market (labor and Materials), community history and so on.
But no matter the situation you will get it more or less 16M.

Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 5:05pm On Oct 28, 2014
@mufutau In a strict area like most lagos metropolis, this design will not be approved. Because of its limited setbacks along the house. But we get this one approved and the project will soon commence in ogombo area of Ajah.
Dimensions are 6 X 28 M
Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 5:15pm On Oct 28, 2014
@bebe2 if you follow this thread from the beginningyou will understand better. By half the cost I mean the half the cost you will buy it (finished) from real estate market. Which is always double.
Also I emphasized on the diff between a quote and an estimate. This is an estimate and I know it will less than that figure but I have to be professional.

Not bad.. so we are talking of about N10-N12m then? That is very good if complete means totally finished for move-in.

Re: Spend Half That Cost on Building Your House? by micomoh: 1:35pm On Dec 22, 2014
@Hajj. The total cost of the project is 13.4M. Sorry it took me this long to respond to your question. Compliment of the season.
