Well, it's nice to have story building but the cost is the problem... the added cost of decking and labor increases in upper flats..
It seems that your parents are over-rating your financial capabilities just because you are overseas.. go with what your fund can complete.
It's not easy leaving building constructed halfway and never have fund in future to complete it.. that is our problem in Nigeria.
