Depends on many factors, for instance, do you already have land? Where's the location?

Caustics:
Assuming you save 30,000 every month, it will take you 100 months (over 8 years) to save 3 million. which will not even be enough to buy land by then.

so NO, you can't build a house in lagos on 60k per month salary.

The heart of maths is wicked... .
In other words, my guy shud forget it

I will say yes and no. yes if its somewhere you can get a good space for #400,000.
No if you can't get a within that range.
the idea is go into a contribution dat will get u a land the first year. the use d contribution to build ur house for as long as it takes. I knw u tired of rented apartments BT u still have to be there for a couple of years to actualize ur dream. it would have been easier if its outside lagos

capital YES! at my village in Ogbomosho

WHICH ONE BE FUFUNEGUSI AGAIN BROS

Lols

yes its very possible being single,its now depends on where you stays and where you want to build the house.where you stays will determine how much you are going to save per month while where you wish to build the house will determine how much you are going to spend,but its very easy be determined and start saving between 30k and 40k per month. As a single man 20k is enough for you in a month though you will deny yourself many things for now which is for your future gain,you can still get land of 150 and 200k even around Lagos but be sure you are dealing with genuine land owner,you can even join like cooperative or ajo to save money depending on where you work.

If u can save 40000 from yr income monthly, I can assure you, u will own an average 3 bedroom flat within 3 years even wen u don hv a land yet.

Bros for which area and which state ?Don't forget,40k every month for 3years is N1.44m. I am interested please .I live in Delta

Op who told you it's not possible?
One younglad bouht a small piece of land last week now the house is at window level. That is how the guy bought small piece of land and build a room self contained on it and rent it off.
Don't let anybody deceive you and yes the land is in Lagos state. Ibeju lekki precisely. Now that sallah is moving nearer you go see awoof land buy from all those omoniles.

For having the thought of owning a house with 60k salary I salute your courage. Some niggars out there earning up to 100k don't think they can ever build a house. Be determined and save towards it. May you get helpers too.

That is your own personal view and livelihood bros.
You cant compare his own area with yours actually.
But if you are at an average nigerian city, you earn up to 60k monthly and you actually find it hard to sustain yourself with it in a month, then u actually need a spending manager. Go hire one.

Some people needs serious discipline when it comes to Living and expenses.

Thanks. I do enjoy your posts too.

I wish such these information here can help the OP

Certainly Sir. IN a matter of months you could have your house standing. I'm pretty sure I can get you a place at ibeju lekki with this amount in a matter of weeks. If you inbox me we could talk about location, prices, payment plans and you'd have your building.

MrMcJay:
OP, the truth is bitter, but I'll tell you as it is.

You better get your priorities right and stop planning a life of hardship and inconvenience ahead. You earn 60K/Month and you want to build a house in Lagos? Is it dog cage you want to build? Do you even know how much a good chicken cage costs in Lagos?

You want to go and build one concrete hut inside one bush where you'll board 100 Naira bike to greet your neighbors good morning? Please, don't put your folks in solitary confinement inside the bush.

To be honest, 60K/Month is a lot of money but it's insignificant in a city like present day Lagos. Outside Lagos? Yeah! people earning less build houses.

I humbly advise that such money be better invested in building a business that gives you regular side income which in turn increases the funds available for you to build.

Also, I'll suggest you work smart and hard. Seek out new opportunities and distinguish yourself in them. That way, you'll be able to earn more and build more than just a house but build a better life for yourself and your family.

may God bless you

You dey mind that guy.. People will just come online and display ignorance.. The cost of living in Yenagoa and PH is 10times more than Lagos.. I doubt if that guy has travelled out of Lagos

I think you're the one displaying ignorance here.
Yenagoa and PH indeed!

Is very possible just follow your dream
And work hard your plan is achievable

[quote author=oshiokpu post=58124893][/quote]

I lived in lagos for 23 years and I know what am talking about son.. That town is one of the most friendly town for low income earners.. It offers the best life to the average man than any other town in the country is only you are willing to cut your coat according to your size.. You can't compare transportation, prices of food stuffs and other basic things in lagos to portharcourt.. When I was transfered from lag, I was initially happy until I came down ND saw things for myself.. Last December I was in Lag, roasted plantain when you go beg to buy 200 na so I chatter them for lagos 80 naira.. As it stands right now, m working my transfer back to that your expensive lagos to enable me save better because portharcourt is almost turning me to a beggar oh..

Most of those teachers u are talking about have other source of income, Most of them don't have any other responsibilities other than to tekia of themselves.

Always try and view things from different angles!!

Someone in my street sell only Ponmo and she build house not mansion. A man in my church build his house tru okada rider. So what re u talking about

Nobody is talking about using bricks(the one made from clay) At least it will save cost for blocks.
He can use it for the rooms and block for the outer walls and parlour. I learnt the bricks is strong and durable

Someone that sells Ponmo has a 70% chance of making it than someone on a govt. payroll.

A woman that fries akara, yam and plantain in my street has 90% chance than someone who works for the govt. A govt. worker only eats when govt. pays salary.

Do you know what kills those who are on a Govt Payroll mostly? They believe it will keep coming like that every month so saving isn't really an option

while that plantain seller uses her head, saving all she could cos she knows when that money is not properly managed, business is dead.
