Yeah! 450K? I never imagined in my wildest dream that the tank stand will be this expensive. So we are looking at 1M by the time you add the cost of drilling the borehole!

Building a house in Naija no be beans o o sad

The borehole drilling, Submersible pump and other equipment costs around N120k in PH.

I am fully transparent on costs, but sometimes where the costs are still not complete or clear due to ongoing calculation, I delay the release of figures to avoid misleading anyone. Welcome Sir.

The tank stand in the PH mansion cost N450k to do, all materials and labour with standing the tank, the plastic tank is excluded from this cost.

Thanks prof. Let me go back to start saving for my own tank stand.

I spoke to my welder and they have versions for poor people like me which is still strong and is in the 100k region for the tall and 50k for bungalow. Its good to know that other options exist which does not compromise on safety.

I did not get into that. He will usually work with my bricklayer for installations be it gate, decking etc. I would think if you have the materials he can bring someone with him to install or tell you what needs to happen.

Yes, shorter versions will be cheaper, in PH my client wanted a stand that will be taller than his house. He wanted good pressure on the taps and showers and it comes with the force of gravity mostly. To keep 2 tanks so heavy that high, we needed to use high guage steel pipes of about 40 foot long. That added to the costs.

Once I saw it, it was unlike any that I had seen before hence the question. As they say sweet soup na money kill am oh.

This is great news for someone like me. When I told the wife about the likely cost of tank stand at up to 450K, i saw depression written all over her face grin. It has not been easy building a house in Nigeria with just one salary while trying to run a family here. At least 50k - 100k will be affordable.

Thanks Gabbytabby for this info. Thanks prof Spyder for the initial expose on the cost.

ok. Is it possible you also give an idea of what it cost to do a wardrobe (9ft * 6ft) and kitchen cabinet. An amount range is fine.

@spyder880. Still waiting for answer to this. Iam looking at medium finishes that is affordable and not expensive and not the top of the range types that cost almost an arm.

Please spyder, am in a dilemma. I want to use 4"strip foundation, 5" solid block, 4 columns on the four edges, for this building. My question is, if the the foundation comes upto 3-4 courses above ground, will it not break when filled with laterite. The side with a self con room is a bit sloppy. Is there anything to be done to forestall this. Thanks and God bless.

Hello spyder. Thanks for your contributions. I currently earn 100k per month and have plans to build a 4 bedroom + living room apartment ensuite. I have a half plot of land somewhere in anambra state. How would you advice me to start? Someone said i should mould close to 4000 blocks first before doing the foundation. Pls advice me. Should i wait will i am able to save up to 1 million to start or i should start buying things with the little i have.
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by ananne: 1:31pm On Apr 25, 2016
Secondly there is an old one room and parlour on the land. Someone said i should renovate and add more rooms to build. Do you think it will be cheaper? Or should i demolish and start afresh with regards to me earlier comments? Thanks.

You need to know how to go about the process of buying and owning a Property in Nigeria. There are several Laws which govern and regulate the process. Hence, usually, it is time and capital intensive. On Property transactions, the legal maxim is apt: “Caveat Emptor” - Buyers Beware. It is not for a Seller to beware. A Buyer needs to exercise full caution and due diligence when buying a property.

This Guide on How to Buy Property [Land or House] in Nigeria makes a bold attempt to provide an in-depth insight on all an interested Buyer should know. Simply follow our prescribed step:
1. Identify the objectives.
2. Conduct a physical inspection of the property.
3. Hire professionals to conduct a property search.
4. Documentation and payments.
5. Take possession.
6. Processing of governors consent & registration of documents with the State Government.
