some guys are so horrible and uncultured here. from my observation from a distance in this section, once somebody comes with any plans or request that we don't relate to, the firm assumption of the so called "professionals " here is that the drawing or proposal must have been done by a quack. Anybody that is not you is a quack, habba!
Unfortunately, by the time you engage some of them (the so called advertising professionals on the corridors of property section), just go hospital go find medicine for heart attack cos they will break your heart. They do! all the time.
When we give feedbacks, we shouldn't be so disrespectful and discourteous about it. This is not fair for God's sake. Una wan make the man feel like say na coconut de him head ni?
Next in line are the hawks who introduce themselves as various professionals who just dole out their phone numbers and email addresses. There are actually good people here who do that here and I do respect them as they are genuine. The man came here for advice, if your advice is going to cost him money, just find somewhere else go advertise and stop bad mouthing other people's works joor.
Despite all these, there are lots of cultured and matured professional guys here. I hail you matured and respectful folks here. To the insultive folks, grow up, a beg. Give your advice for free and charge for real professional consultation jare.

Imagine someone telling a friend he will supervise his DPC for 200k!.....Two hundred thousand Naira! Friend will still buy his materials, pay all the workers on site. Drawings don de ground already oh. The professional own na just to put hand for pocket show him face like 3x during the work and pocket 200k. Aye ma ni ika oh.

While it is not my intention to disrespect anyone or insult the integrity of any profession, we need to purge ourselves of some folks here.

Those Drawings don't look professional. Except thats a presentation drawing which I doubt cos I could see Dimension Line Within the spaces, I could tell you cause im an Architect

Like someone advised, the Lounge would be an Oven during Summer, no proper Lighting and Cross Ventilation..

Engaging a Professional would save you a lot more than you think..
*Get involved a Professional Architect, he'll coordinate every other professional required to erect such building.. Ranging from A Structural Engineer to a Mechanical and Electrical Engineer and down to a Quantity Surveyor - its for your own good to avoid Loosing Lives and property at the Long run.

Op the mistake has been made but please next time it doesn't cost much to hire a professional to do the Job, saves you money and stress tho..

Below are Examples of what a Detailed Construction Drawing Looks Like, Although They are for Presentation (Designed By Me)

Hi Nairanders!
I have this quest of building a 2 bedroom 2 storey of flats with a ground floor of 3 Bedrooms in my land at Mbanagu Otolo Nnewi at Anambra State from abroad through the help of my mother .I called it a residential-commercial kind of building because I will in the future be using the ground floor with my family while I rent out the flats in the first and second floors for the maintenance of the house.
Currently, I am still at the stage of commencing with the fencing job but it is my mother's wish to not buy blocks but to get a block-moulder to start moulding for us meaning that all the blocks to be used in the building will be moulded at the building site so as to reduce the cost of buy blocks.
1.? How do guys feel about the idea?
Secondly, I have not gotten a building plan for the above explained type of building so I humble ask for help with Building plans for a house of that nature and the estimated cost/budget so as to help me in my decision whether to continue or choose something else!
2.? How much do you guys think it would cost me from the foundation to the roofing level?
? Does anyone have a better suggestions of what I should go for instead based of my explanation?
Lastly, I have attached a building plan of a 3 storey of a double flats with a ground floor and the first flat by the right hand side in the first floor designed for residential purpose only (for my family and I ).
3? How much do you think I should budget for a 2 storey of the same building plan?
Do you have you have an estimatedo cost for it or a better option with an estimated cost?

Please, folks feel free in contributing and suggesting something because it will go a long way helping me in this confused state of mind.
Thanks in anticipation my people and hope to hear from y'all as soon y'all can manage!

@Biazarre, the building plan attached above was provided by a so called Engineer so that's his plan by the way. That was the reason why I had to put it up here to see my people's view on it and as well see if I would get a better plan based on my explanation of what I am looking forward to build.
I need an estimated cost of a building plan leading to a 2/3 bedroom 2 storey of a single or a double flats.
Thanks for contributing!
