I know someone who was invited to Government House, flight paid for, accomodation given at Government House Guest House for 2 weeks, but after all said and done didn't make up to 1 million from working on that short assignment.

This same guy was later given jobs worth hundreds of millions of Naira due to the relationships he fostered during that job that paid him in hundreds of thousands when when he was expecting a million or millions at most.

So manage small contracts well, cause you never know what doors contacts that give you small deals can open.

Adedward well done.

I sold a plot to a client from Abuja. He was so intrigued by my service. According to him everything was as I said.

So he brought his friends who bought additional 5 plots.

@redgem.
I reside in Benin. HS broker helped me with the woods. Though he promised 12 feet but what he supplied were between 8 to 10 feet. But the woods were of good quality. Talk to both your carpenter and Engineer. You can get 12 feet wood in Benin.

I have already fallen for it... There was no actual agreement..... I called him to talk to him after he was recommended by a friend.
Him: I can supply you quality wood, direct from the bush.
Me: Okay, what is the price?
Him: Let me call my supplier and confirm the price...

That was it. He called back to tell me and I sent the money to him immediately... I didn't bother to disturb him because I felt it may take some time..only for him to call me yesterday that prices have increased.


Call this number for wood in Benin

That issue as at yesterday was like settled muddy water. To get clean water, you have to apply wisdom. You needed to thread with caution in order to get your money back or the woods you ordered for.

Now it appears that the water has been shaken, so the strategy I suggested might no longer be effective because you have given him a hint of what is to come.

I suspect the next issue he might attach to that now would be a concocted amount of how much he has spent to go to the bush for you.

Wisdom is necessary in dealing with people.

Good luck.

Just thinking aloud. What if the guy has no ulterior motives?

I went the bush wood route in one of my personal build and I can still tell you some of the woods supplied to me are still lying on the floor unperturbed after many years.

I had to reward the supplier 7 years later when I realized I wasn’t cheated.

There are there ooo, all naa rugged movements/ discussion with them, those are the challenges contractor, engr etc do face in most cases when searching for cheaper materials to meet cleint budget.
That is why I like to handle cost of Labour and contractor charges only now.unless client stated otherwise This system is the best
Unless for someone that has another negative motives about client materials

Go inside most roofs after 1 year, you’d understand why I chose to reward my supplier after 7 years. A lot of wood we buy in the market get infested at most 9 months after installation.

As a first timer, which sawmill will she go to?
For instance, the price of wood in Ebute Metta, Lagos cannot be compared with sawmills in other parts of Lagos. Likewise the quality of wood you’d get.

Also woods sourced from the Bush are more complete than wood gotten from the open market. On pricing too. Wood from the Bush are likely to be more expensive if standard is adhered to.

For a builder that claims he is currently handling numerous projects simultaneously you sure do have a lot of time posting on Nairaland shocked

Or do you have supervisors on all the sites following NextHome's foolproof and tested building systems for a totally satisfying build? grin
