At approximately 7 feet by 9 feet I think so.

The whole plan seems forced to fit a specific area.

Good luck on your project.

I think he asked for “average man‘s standard.” He might likely get a carcass of a standard 3 bedroom flat if he’s rugged and smart.

I did +/- I realize he’d only require a little more than his budget to get a carcass of his proposed development in Ìbàdàn.

If we (through Govt Affordable Housing Project) can deliver carcass of 2 unit of 2 bed (expandable to 3 bed) with 5.5m in 2020, now 7m (Contractor’s profit and other things included), I’m confident he can have something good at N3.5m but he has to handle it like an average man left with no option.
Bosun do you want to bid for this project as I know you, with 3 million you can complete ready to move in less than 2 months grin Abi I lie wink

Good afternoon Sir Ma
I sincerely want to know or have the real analysis budget .
Can 3.000.000(3m) building an average Man 3bedroom flat in ibadan ,already possessed a square plot of land?

Let’s define build first. Is it just somewhere to move into unfinished or is it totally finished?

But N3M is not enough.

This is a 500 square foot commercial structure that I’m currently building in Elebu, Ibadan.

Here’s a project that can guide you on cost. It wasn’t written or composed or guesswork. It was a complete documentation of a project done by a first time home owner with the support of professionals from different field.

https://www.kobocity.com/d/80-first-time-owner-builder/341

It has full details of cost to the last kobo (from foundation to move-in). The owner was so detailed that he documented the cost of satchet water grin

It can serve as a guide.

you can never change

Don't listen to our 'resident serial fraudster', he is only good at 'motivational speech', and always in a hurry to spill trash.

For an average building, start with what you have, it may not finish the building completely but it will cover 'significantly'.

You have the advantage of Economies of scale based on the number of units..

I'm also not trying to discourage him but to manage his expectation vis-a-vis quality of output.

Your points are very valid. That’s why I said he has to do it the average man way.

What's the projected estimated total cost of construction?


The work is being done by a developer. I bought it off plan about 2 years ago at 36m and was paying according to an agreed payment plan. But along the line (late last year) they increased it to 45m due to increasing cost of everything. Roofing will commence before the end of the month.

Well, the Terrance are 5 in number and the 4 other owners decided to break away that room entirely and either add to living room or turn to an anteroom. But I left the living area is already big enough, plus that will turn it into a 4 bedroom instead of 5 (value decrease?). That's why I decided to leave it like that.

These are the issues. Address them and stop hiding


Is Brabus/Nexthome the luckiest scammer on Nairaland Building Section?

I have observed the building/ property section from a distance and not made many comments. And the activities of Brabus /Nexthome have given me cause to worry. I think he is both the most skillfull marketer and disreputable builder on this forum at the same time.

My observations

1.He is not a professional builder.

Honestly, this is the weakest argument against Brabus. You don't have to be 'a professional', but you can be professional.
Brabus is not a building professional,but pretends to be one. He may be knowledgeable about how to put up a building (this does not preclude him from the industry but at least be professional to clients )

2.Poor/shoddy job quality,allegations of fraud and theft

Incorrect quantity or materials supplied,
Columns not aligning,cement bags in concrete mix, missing iron rods from site,using regular wood when marine was paid for ,counterfeit drawings, sub-contractors and suppliers not paid.... what the.... (na only you?)

3.All is good until money starts changing hands.
Excellent client relationship until money issues are concerned. Then the name calling and advice giving from a distance starts. I am yet to see a full spectrum of jobs done from start to finish for Nairalanders without complaint (i stand to be corrected on this. Pls really!)


4.Pasting photos like educational materials , meanwhile marketing himself(which is not bad)

Remember the ile-oluji projects. Pasting photos of work not done by him until the client came out screaming!

5.Photo Essays.
Each project is a photo opportunity to draw in the next client ,while not fulfilling full obligations.

6. Brabus is NEVER wrong
No matter what, never accept responsibility for actions on your project site. This is Brabus/nexthome's way. It is always the client that did something wrong. Calling clients who paid you money names, after they air greviances

7.Master of deflection
Changing topic in the middle of a thread, once serious allegations are made with new pictures or glossy future project and real estate seminars. And aligning with established builders to cover up

8.Cracking jokes after serious allegations are made about work done . This is after people have cried out their hearts and serious grievances on this forum

Clients beware

P.S. I am a professional architect who has never and would never work or had any interaction with Brabus/ Nexthome.

Maverick efforts to alert people of his work reputation should not be shut down.
Anybody on this forum who is swayed by his advertising should also be aware of his reputation beforehand. Several of his clients were aware of his reputation and still went into business with him. We should stop this " don't spoil his livelihood" argument. If people allege and show evidence of shoddy jobs and fraud from their livelihood why should they not sound the alarm to others.

The beautiful thing is people will see all this information about Brabus/ Nexthome and enter the trap. Why? Is it because he is the luckiest scammer on Nairaland Building Section?
[b][/b][color=#990000][/color]

Same thing that was true over 6 years ago is still true today.

NOTHING has changed . A petty fraudster cannot change his stripes

If price go down, will they revert?

This is the 2nd time I’m hearing something like this. Pls if it’s not too much, can you pls share with me (just for learning purpose) what will happen if you’ve paid 90% of the agreed sum and the other investors default and suddenly material price go up?

Would it affect them only or it’d affect you as well?

Thank you in anticipation.
