EgunMogaji2: Exactly, that is why l made reference to your statement. I just did not want to mention your handle. You knew the value of what you wanted, you knew what effort it will take QSfemi, you could have asked generally without mentioning anything about Cost. It takes a lot of reflection to think about the effort behind the work, especially those whose work is not directly involved in the actual building. Its all about showing our good side to people who help us here, not by force but as the spirit leads anyone. Thanks Baba, l want to be like you when l grow-up. 3 Likes |

somehow: My pleasure Sir. I can only give you parameters, not a particular location, so you evaluate the place, when you see it. Except if you are not on ground and you want referrals, l can ask on your behalf. I personally dont like Estates because l take pride in building my house, the way l want it to look like and l dont buy into the idea that one cannot implement safety, to one's taste. I just dont like one Omo-Onile exercising control over what l do, because they own the Estate. - Buy on highland - Buy where there are people living already (it would cost more but will save you much more, going forward), building is less stressful in such environment (Roads, Electricity Power/Poles, Transformer, communal Safety, etc are usually setup and can be built upon) - Do a high foundation and a solid one. You wont do foundation twice, do it if that is all you can do for starters - It cost a lot more, to buy a cheap land far into the woods, than to buy a more expensive land in established areas. Dont forget, the value of your land, the house on it and the ROI from it, all depends on LOCATION. - Think about how future developments, access to Express road, Market, etc can add to value of your land within a few years, while making life easy for you as a resident.

Good morning to all Nairalanders please am about to start my project next month and i need a very good builder or engineer who can handle my project perfectly if not 100% maybe 98% please i beg the elders in the house to help me with recommendation. thanks in advance |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by somehow: 10:49am On Nov 19, 2020 |
Thank you very much. I don't mind if you can ask on my behalf. As for estates, the reason for that is for security, it's more secured to build in an estate than just about anywhere IMO. It also saves you from series of fees that different people will keep bringing when its time to pay + different omoniles coming for their shares. These are my major reasons for wanting an estate setting instead. I am so grateful for the other tips you gave. One4me: |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Wingnut007: 12:55pm On Nov 19, 2020 |
somehow: You and I are in the exact position, down to the thought process. We have ruled out Ikorodu for the same set of reasons and tilted towards Ibeju-Lekki. Bogije (Beechwood Estate specifically) is at the top of our list and we have been there twice. This weekend, we will be going to the area again to inspect couple of estates, make a final decision and commit to it immediately. Our rent will be due in about a year and we don't plan on renewing it. Our budget is about the same as yours and what's more disturbing is that it is fast losing value and purchasing power. Our only concern now is if good and affordable schools and hospital/healthcare is in the vicinity. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Wingnut007: 12:57pm On Nov 19, 2020 |
twinskenny: By hidden fee, are you referring to service charge or the one-time development, legal and survey fee? Or is there any other kind of fee we need to look out for? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by somehow: 12:58pm On Nov 19, 2020 |
twinskenny: true but i doubt if its going to be up to that of omoniles and government people |
