Some pictures
No parapet
No special design like that
All in all, it looks like I'm the only person God blessed this year

I'm happy to share these pics on here to uplift some souls. We built this house within six months. You know what that means? When you don't have any money in the account but it keeps coming and coming till it's completed.
Shalom

Congratulations. This is a very good achievement at a younger age like yours. Keep it up and God will provide more funds for another project.

I like when young guys make hay while the sun shines because only few young guys can make use of opportunities positively. Some young guys with opportunities don't know the difference between 'swag" and "class".

If you have the opportunity, can you please take close up pictures of the circled area?

Thanks and congrats.

Edit: I personally consider parapets a complete waste. That money can be used to initiate a new investment.

Plus including land, building and even the furniture

It might be more than that but there were some
funds I spent as a newbie that I was not supposed
to spend.

My dad handled the building project so anytime
he says do this I will without hesitation.

You will need to have your drawings, specify if it is a bungalow or storey building. For storey building you will need a soil test to know Geotechnical soil properties which will aid the structural designer to design your foundation type.... then you can now get good estimate or bill of quantities

Soil test only for storey building.



-------
It may be strange to know that even fence may required Pilling as well as bungalow. So soil test is not meant for storey building

Lol. yea, cus we were in the same hood back home. Both families are acquainted

This is easy and has nothing to do with the holy sanctity of polygamy.

Get your docs off of your Dad (he shouldn't have them in the first instance).

Continue your build without seeking input from family's

Rekindle a relationship with pops if possible.

No need for whimsical epistles really.

Tell him H.I.M. EgunMogaji said to man up and get a stiff upper lip shocked

PS: I think the Barister was professionally negligent in his duties. You hired him to collect the docs. He should have, even if you later decide to give it back to pops.

bold part, that's just it. Being yoruba man himself, he was relaxed by the man's petty prank.

I just don't want to update you guys yet. I want to see the next episode before I say something. In my last update, I said his little brother said "dad is played prank by cooking up stories to feel bad for him. And someone here said "struggles continue". Thats very true.

Pop said "I will make sure his plan fails". That was eavesdroped conversation without him knowing. That triggers new battles. Now lawyer will go there again this week and ask for it. If he proves stubborn police force will be involved. But my friend paid lawyer's professtonal fee even though he didn't get the doc the first time.

The age is not to young to own a house. Anyone can do the same, if our young onces can focus stop spending there money on drinks and woman.
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by allCopacetic: 2:28pm On Apr 25, 2016
No age is literally too young or too old to own a house, but in light of the current economic situation owning a property of ANYKIND at 27 is laudable,
70% of Nigerians between 27 and 30 have a below 100k income, A sizeable number have NO income

Na so my bruv. We asked him this time "can you do it or not?". He said "I need to remind you again that your docs are saved. Your father worked hard on your docs".

Friend said that's understandable and that's why I credited 100k into his account few days before you went to him for job well done but my docs are saver with me. Now can you do it or not? " {papa didn't disclose100k egunje to nobody} grin grin

He said " certainly, your docs are saver with you and will get it done but I don't want you to get it with fight".

Friend said "leave that for later. ..we will fight now to set things straight and reconcile later".

Now his mom, sisters and brothers who against attny initially now support the move. His docs cant be save knowing that only pop and his last wife live together and she knows everything about him including the man's Will. So this week, we want to see another drama.

This is where western countries beat silly cultures in Africa.
