The second decking took about N4,150,000 or thereabouts, we saved more on wood which we reused, but lost more money on labor costs as the height increased, so the workers increased their charges.

The area is developing rapidly from what I have witnessed since I started building this house for this client here. There has been at least 7 different new purchases of lands in this area, and people has started building there immediately.

The 4 pictures I attached shows 4 new buildings that started after I started building this house. The lands had not even been sold when we started this building.

Great & useful info from you. My Aunt is proposing same in Asaba too (but 4 block of 2 bedroom. 2 up/2 down).

The contractor told her it'll cost about 18-20 million. Perhaps he was right afterall judging from this your estimate.

The cost the engineer quoted is very adequate, but you should move fast, there might be more inflation in the near future.
