Building 4 Flats Of 3 Bedrooms Each - Survey, Architecting And Construction by olumz1: 10:16am On Jun 08, 2016 |
Hello NairaLanders, After reading through trends of peoples projects and how far they've achieved and their challenges, I've decided to put mine on here to help first timers like me, to seek advice from the professionals and to update you on every single process. Enjoy the ride with me and I'm sure this is going to be an exciting one as I'll be looking forward to meeting a lot of professionals on this trend. Bellow is how far I've gone into my project so far and the charges. I have secured 3 plots of Land at a newly developing area(Elebu, Ibadan). I intend to build 4 flats on each plot for commercial purposes(one house at a time). I have done a red copy survey which maps out my 3 plots from the others - 100,000 - this process has been completed and I have the survey copy I have gotten a design from my achitect for the 3 buldings which cost - 220,000 This includes: 2D and 3D Construction Drawings and Details NIA/ARCON Seal Bill of Quantities Structural details of columns, column bases and beams and structural Calculation sheets Mechanical and Electrical details and analysis NSE Seal Lawyers agreement cost - 30000(A known lawyer did this at a discounted rate, apparently it cost 10% of the price of the land) The level I'm at now is to send the drawings to the town planning for approval. - I'll be glad if anyone has an idea of how much this would cost in Ibadan as I live abroad. See a 3D picture of my proposed structure below. Please any reasonable advice will be much appreciated. Also alert me if you think I'm being charged ridiculously. 5 Likes

Hi All, Just an update on my progress so far. I've been charged 150,000 for approval, inspection and tax clearance for the three buildings. I was told its better to get an approval for the three than doing them individually. The architect would charge 90,000 to approve just one structure. Just to remind you again that this project is in Ibadan. Thank you |

This is a very nice and big project you are embarking on. Wish you luck. None of the prices seem outrageous so far. I'm working on a block of four three bedroom flats in lagos. Architect - 100k, surveyor - 40k, structural engr - 40k. |

Mr olumz1, God will see you through. Am so happy seeing this kind of development in my ibadan. My advice is pertaining to my work.... Please get a borehole drilled first. Don't look at d cost. It is economical as It will save you from sabotaging and also u will be able to get a good point to drill b4 development takes place Best wishes sir. |

Hi Olumz1, Is your builder also your Architect? I have a similar project and your quotation is very good. Even though all building design and site are different,I must say you got a good guy. 1 Like |

Larwin: are you able to send me a quote for the borehole? |
Re: Building 4 Flats Of 3 Bedrooms Each - Survey, Architecting And Construction by olumz1: 10:13am On Jun 24, 2016 |
Also after much deliberation, the architect has brought the cost down to 1.9M. I think this is a fair amount and as such I'll go ahead with the foundation. Hopefully work should start on Monday and I'll provide more pictures as things evolve. @adewaleID, Yes my Architect is the supervisor and the project manager. He'll instruct the builders on what needs to be done. I'm not sure if I can call him the builder, but i hope you get it ![]() 2 Likes |

Larwin: Thanks for the quote. I still intend to shop around and if yours is the most reasonable quote, I will get back to you on the next step. Cheers. |
Re: Building 4 Flats Of 3 Bedrooms Each - Survey, Architecting And Construction by Larwin(m): 7:39pm On Jun 27, 2016 |
olumz1: Alright, Please note that most times its more than quoting. Your selection should be based on professionalism and quality of service. My Regards Sir. |

adewaleID: Thanks Bro, The foundation should be starting this week. The architect delayed with the drawings, he has just submitted them to me today. I will again upload this on here shortly. I'm still shopping around for a borehole driller as all the quotes I've received are a bit on the high side. |

Re: Building 4 Flats Of 3 Bedrooms Each - Survey, Architecting And Construction by olumz1: 2:52pm On Jun 28, 2016 |
As promised here are the designs. There are more design views, but this should be sufficient for the experts in the house who may be willing to guide me if things are not properly done. I also have the electrical and mechanical design. So far, I feel pleased and hope things continue this way. There's been a bit of delay on from my architect but I've also refrained from rushing him to avoid mistakes. We shall be moving to the site to begin construction before the end of the week and I'll keep you updated on every stage with pictures.

Hi NLanders, We have finally started work on the site. The setting-out has been completed and we are now digging. Luckily we wont have to buy sand for filling as we found a heap of sand on the land which was dumped there from the recent grading carried out on the street. Please see the pictures below and feel free to ask me any questions on what we have done so far. 1 Like

olumz1: Wow. How did your architect find nearly #400K in savings from his original quote? What are the dimension's of one building? The numbers are illegible. Looks great. Good luck. |
Re: Building 4 Flats Of 3 Bedrooms Each - Survey, Architecting And Construction by olumz1: 11:36am On Jul 07, 2016 |
msogunro: What I did was to get another quote from a local builder which was about 1M cheaper and started to use that to query the architect's quote we then resolved to both understand most of the items listed are not very important. For instance the stone-Dust blocks wasn't necessary. I just got normal blocks of 9" and told the molder to ensure my blocks were solid. I'll still save more because I've realized buying the materials myself will save me a lot more. Again make sure no one comes with you when you go to buy the materials. They know themselves, its crazy ![]() Finally my builder is from the north, his charges are half the normal charge in Ibadan. 1 Like |
