Is 10m too much for a bungalow??

Henceforth, I will give account only on
the cost of my building. The cost of the
land will mentioned on request!

I dont think N10 million is even enough to complete some bungalows, some bungalows of your size can gulp N100 million and ask for more money. Just call up Julius Berger and drop your plans for them and slap them with a hundred milla cheque and things will start to happen. Order them to finish the house with concrete walls, aeroplane skin aluminum roof, platinum plated POP ceilings studded with lumps of diamond, jacuzzi bathroom and toilet fittings including a toilet seat all made of 32 karat gold for each of the rooms.(imported from Saudi Arabia) Bullet proof window panels and fire proof door panels all imported from UK with finighing touches by Chubb castle UK ltd. What about the latest kitchen facilities from US, or the aerodynamic hanging beds that floats on the air, thrown in from Sweden?
My brother, if you gat the cash, flaunt it. There is nothing better in this world than enjoying your money, especially after working hard for it.

100millar no go buy half of all those things wey you mention there my bros
100million naira may look so big to you, but it is less than a million dollar!!! So when you go to
julius beger and tell them you want to give them USD700,000 for the above,  you did be lucky to
come out of there with one leg!!!!

Anyways, I am still trying to figure what kind of duplex someone can build even with 11million naira!!!
If I won build myself a duplex, Bros my budget will be nothing less than 25million
take it or leave it!!!

Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride,
PEACE!!!!

I dont think 150k is too much for that style of roofing, but is it only the woodwork or with the aluminium or is ceiling involved in the whole thing?
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by brabus(m): 6:35pm On Mar 18, 2011
A visit to this site can tell you of the amazing designs and finishes happening here in Lagos. You can see the construction from foundation to finishing stage. http://thehavenhomes.com/yes-we-built-them.htm

@Am Alone, N150k is good if the man know his onions. I paid my carpenter N70k because he's my close relative. The least quote I got was N180k from other carpenters. I used step tiles aluminium although the initial plan was to use Crete Tiles.
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by AmAlone: 7:21pm On Mar 18, 2011
The 150k is only for the ceiling loggin
and the wood roofing excluding the roof itself
The roof I will be using is called stone tiles
and will be fixed by one company here in Lagos
but the pattern of the wood work will be
exactly like that of step tiles

you must have been there when he got the land 19 mill to be exact, and all fitting were imported, as u know a house

When people say fitting were imported
I want to ask, were all those fake china products
not imported as well?
I think its better we say they are original and of great qualities or so,

But Naija is a big country sha
and I believe you can get almost
everything here in naija
and one thing I've come to understand
is that, not all those foreign thing are made
for us. Like a set of WC i saw, it was very lovely
but the hole where waste use to pass was very
tiny. When I took my plumber there, he advice me
not to buy! How man wey don eat fufu and eba
waste go fit take pass that kind small hole
nai be dey question wey him ask moi!
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by kopell: 8:01pm On Mar 18, 2011
