Thanks bro 🙏

Compound interest on CD at 13% will double your capital in 4 years.
100m at that is 25m yearly cumulative.

15million wetin?

Is this some kind of a joke?

I guess it's been long to price building materials.

Excluding the land, the 15m will not take your standard 3bed room past 70%.

leave am e think say na fools dey here maybe they used regular aluminum roofing sheet dry use for outside toilet

kings59:
15 Million will do that perfectly well.

We are talking about Three bedrooms here and not 5 bedrooms.

If a trip of sand is 180k, filling 3 rooms a parlor and a kitchen and bathrooms would take let's say 6 tippers of sand = 1.8 M

Then the rods should take 2.5M for foundation.

Casting it + cement + granite should be 4 M

Blocks can be 800k

The ceiling and roofing should be 2.5M since it's 3 bedroom

Windows and doors should be 1.5M ( 3 doors 3 rooms, kitchen, and toilet and bathroom + entrance) making 6 doors= 600k windows and the rest 600k
Workmanship 1.5M

Is the building not set already?

The OP never specifies internal decoration, just building.

No wonder many people fail exams.

Spot on assessment.

Builders, kindly let us know.
We are very interested in this.
Thank you.


Thanks so much for this.
We will look into this too.

Why don't you consider buying a new property already rather than building from scratch 🤔

decatalyst:


Possible about 2yrs ago bro.

To electrify a 3bed, with good material, it will cost you nothing less than 2m. I am saying because I have been there.

A block is now btw 650-850...something of less than #200 2yrs ago.

10k per bag will get you solid 35 to 40 blocks…. I built recently and 42m got me what I wanted. Including borehole and soak away…. 5m will get me a good solar system. Na so we see am anyway.

If ₦50m cant build a 3BR,why are some houses in Lekki still being quoted at that amount?
Even recently that guy in Delta State or so that killed his friend,threw him into a River and lied to the family that the murdered friend had been kidnapped and collected about ₦30m was found to have completed a duplex and bought other lands with that ₦30m.Did he build the duplex with sand?

don't mind all those idiots

Go to property section n see good houses for less than 20 million but our billionaire's here will tell us 200 million isn't enough to buy land

kings59:
15 Million will do that perfectly well.

A man in my area used 12 million to build a good bungalow, more beautiful than the one OP attached to his photo.

All those crazy people shouting 50M are thieves. Buy the materials yourself and don't allow the engineer to do it.

I would have shown a photo, but the man wouldn't like to see his house online because he is a Military person.

No electricals, no plumbing, no tiling.

Surely you have not priced roofing sheets recently.

Dangerous. Too much compromise on standards occur. Nothing is more painful than buying a house and after 1 year, rising damp hits the walls.

I am just surprised bro with what people are saying here, I finished my bedroom last November, and when I checked all I spent, I calculated 16. 6m even will nice furnishing and with an automatic gate, so why are they saying 50m won't build a 3bedroom flat

Except you want to inflate prices to buy building materials.

What do you mean. He is right.

Except you want to inflate prices for your personal gains.

stop replying tenants

You don't know what you're talking.

Except you want to inflate prices of building materials. Otherwise the money id enough.

Sugarboyy:
Without the land, let me do a proper breakdown for you and allow you to decide yourself... This is from person experience.

To DPC level, you are spending a minimum of 2m.
To lintel level from DPC, you are spending another 2m minimum.
Let's say 5m from scratch to Lintel level, excluding filling sand and workmanship.
That parafet, I did mine that's an artwork parafet for 1.8m
Woodwork and roofing currently for this sample you posted, you are spending atleast 10m.

My brother, 50m won't build it.
You should be looking at 65-70m.

My brother, you are not sincere.

You are estimating like contractor.

Oga, all you listed will gulp your N15m and more.
It is obvious you have never built. You have not considered electrical connections, sewage and plumbing, tiling, plastering. Again, Dangote must be your father to buy cement that cheap.

Note: This costing is subject to reduction or addition based on inflation, market situation, quality of materials and type of expertise engaged

Last year, I started a project of 2 units of 2B/R.
The engineer billed me N2M to get it to DPC.
He thought I will give him money to buy materials too.
I arrived to supervise my job - he over quoted everything. I ended up using N1.2M to get it to lintel level with half of the rods unused, 2 bags of nails remaining with binding wire that wasn't used up to a quarter.

Less than N2M would have completed the block work.

The building block work would have been completed but for kidnapping in my area.

Change go even remain Wella .. inside the 15m.. person go buy some interior decorations inside self ..

I am saying this from experience..

50m will do this with moderate all fittings and interior.

Nah craziness dey worry am. A bag of cement is 940

highchief1:
50m won’t do it well with tasteful finishing.standard bungalow now is about .65m.duplex standard 180-200m.Note that 50m was building a duplex before the drug lord became a president

Drug Lord , ohaneze are begging for. I learnt about 1.3m of them are in India prisons.

Don't worry, they would soon be kpai so that you can rest.

No worry, SA people doesn't rate you people.

westlius:
You need 4,000 to 5000 blocks.
6 inches block
1 bag of cement gives you 45 blocks,
You need 112 bags to get 5,000 blocks
Finishing (interior) can be expensive or cheaper depending on your taste.
50 million will build 2 of these house minus land and get change is your finishing standard isn't too high

1 bag should lay 80 to 90 blocks
