Waste of Money.
If investing is waste of money to You,then keep the opinion to yourself, no one ask for your input cool

Modified: we're constructing some hostels here in Ekiti and before we completed the building,it's fully booked. Imagine spending 35m to construct 10self contains with ROI of 4m-5m annually and you call that 'a waste of money' undecided

Waste of money as how?

It is directly built on a fence, which is a blatant contravention of building regulations.
Though anybody can do whatever they like, but this sort is not worth showcasing.

Oh! So because it's built directly on fence meaning it's waste of money? And it doesn't worth showcasing?? This is part of what brought me to limelight here on Niaraland,and for the facts I've handled/handling bigger projects which I show case them here doesn't mean I won't showcase the little ones. My target is not only for the big Men but also to the low earners who thought they can't have their own roof over their head due to the high cost of materials.

it's simple sir. A self con in school area is 400k here in Ekiti multiply by 10rooms making 4m with option of increasing the rent every two years. Apartment is even cheaper in ekiti compare to Other places I've helped clients built hostels.

Here is a link to our recent Regal paint supply and and painting.

https://www.nairaland.com/8329689/painting-ibadan-project-done-hajivince

We offered expert advice and remedial products to strengthen the screeded surface before paint application.
Impeccable general finish all round of the project if I may say so.
We are presently doing repair and maintenance work on a referred non nairalander from a third generation nairaland referree and we are carrying out possible preventative and innovative solution for damp issue that has defied previous solutions by others.
We do more than paint supply, but help give best advice and practical solution on surface preparation and damp problem.
Pictures later if granted permission as its presently occupied.
Any enquiry on the above listed issues would be on dm. We still appreciate that we earn living with the little experience that we have gathered.

Beloved! Welcome to the week. As today marks this week, May God cause You to break into a beautiful sunrise, may the good lord go before you and make every desert and unclear path in your life to be clear and fruitful, open your eyes to see abounding opportunities in your environment, show you the things you must do to experience financial breakthrough and as well live in abundance. Amen. I pray for you this week that all the anti-progress satanic agents assigned against you and your household shall be swallowed up and all satanic parasites living in your house, causing problems in your family shall all be destroyed by fire in. Amen.
Good morning and have a blessed this Week ahead and congratulations for seeing the last week of the month of January.

If 35m can actually deliver 10 units of such standard 400k selfcon, then I will say it's a good long term investment.

A plot of land suitable for such is how much in the area?

A plot is 2m plus, depending on location. My Client recently got two plots at 5m.

Thanks you, for sure that guy has a roof to lay his head without thinking of paying rent@ end of the month. He also secured his land from land grabbers. I love his courage to start with what he can afford

Is it preferable to run electrical wiring before installation of pop ceiling?

If your place is secured you can do that.. But you get all windows including burglary and the all the entrance doors fixed.. If the place is not secure or having doubting mind you can pull only the lighting cables and tell the pop installer not to expose or bring them down during their own installation.

Electrician will do the necessary thing during markings and installation of light fittings

I came across this on social media.
If solar power wasnโ€™t worth the investment, why would a petrol station install a 100KVA inverter system with 450KWH lithium-ion battery?

This installation at Petrocam Filling Station, Mowe-Ibafo, proves that even businesses in the fossil fuel industry recognize the cost-saving and reliability benefits of solar energy.

Good day.
It is a good thing to get a qualified engineer or a builder to handle the project.
Has far as the negotiation is concern it base on the total work to be carried out also the technicality of he job to be done.
