abouzaid:
can one build a four bedroom all en suite bungalow with two and half million or less? I'm doing a cost analysis and it's looking possible from my analysis. what's your views on that? i would give my analysis later after hearing some of your views. my labourers would be sourced exclusively from the north where labour is extremely cheap and the house would not include any fancy works. details later but lets hear your views first.
that’s not possible

There’s some truth to this, but it’s not entirely accurate.

Many workers abroad (especially in developed countries like the UK, US, Canada, etc.) are paid an hourly wage, but whether they have guaranteed hours depends on the contract type.

Full-time: Typically 36–40 hours per week.
Part-time: Usually around 24 hours per week but can be less.

Some contracts guarantee a minimum number of hours per week, while others, like zero-hour contracts (common in the UK), don’t guarantee any hours.

To me personally, the hourly rate might not work in Nigeria because a lot of client will find it difficult to pay. Presently the skilled labour are demanding for 15k per day and if you to go by hourly rate you need to consider the
cost of transportation and the location of the project.

Transportation and fuel is taking alot of money these days. From oshodi to Ajah alone is 1500naira. From respective house to Oshodi and from Ajah bus stop to site location is not part of the money. Some technicians are spending close to 7k on Transportation per day. 100naira is becoming so useless in transportation area because hardly you will see bus conductor collecting 100naira for 1km journey . If you want to go with your car to site, be ready to spend more because 20-25k will go on fuel alone.

You didn’t include feeding during working hours. The rapid decline of this country is something that truly needs to be studied.

I thought I am the only one seeing his charges too cheap to be true.

Recheck the info again.. it’s possible we are not newbie in the construction industry, all we care about @arbo contractor Ltd is to make sure you get value for your money and also make sure middle/ low class people can get where they can call there own house without breaking the bank to get such.

Presently some member here are in discussion with me about how they can get this, possible when it’s done I shall post it here for others to see.
Thanks.
