Hahaha naija no easy, years back I had a similar experience with government allocated land I bought in Abuja, after paying all government fee including ground rent back loge through AGIS. After a few years I went back to start developing. Suddenly the locals already take position and started farming on the land. On approaching them at the beginning I wanted to use enforcement and I realized it could be bloody. I was advised to drop the idea and work with them, they took me to their local chief. I couldn't believe they had procedures for that and while trying to negotiate with them they claimed the government took their land without compensating them. Cutting the story short in the process of negotiating they told me I had to pay 2k per every root of what their farmers planted there. When putting the numbers together it was about 70% of cost of the land. I just had to walk away and leave the land, back to base in largos. One thing that is clear is, they can't sale it's because is well documented in AGIS.

These happenings are not just right. I would blame the Government for that!

Are you building DIY without structural drawings? This is your foundation we are talking about, the most important element of your built.

Foundation should be designed by a specialist with regards to the condition of the soil and the expected load. Foundations are strict civil engineering science and not a topic you present for debate at the debating and dramatic society. You shouldn't be debating your foundation. You should be implementing your foundation according to your structural drawings.

It is good advice to follow due process and best practice as certified by a professional. Foundation is one element you can't afford to get wrong. I'm not a civil engineer but trust me on this Kobo kobo or no Kobo kobo.

Thank you

HOW TO IDENTIFY LANDS THAT APPRECIATE VERY FAST.

And why you can make 1.5 million in less than a month trading this property

All big and most expensive cities in the world are either facing the water, surrounded by water, or divided by water.

The most expensive buildings in the world are in Manhattan and it's surrounded by water.

There's no more land to buy in Manhattan, they now buy what is called Air right. That's buying on top of somebody's house and building your own house there.

The most expensive land in the world is banana Island. Yes, banana island, a 600sqm is about $5m. It could have been Manhattan but there's no more land to buy in Manhattan.

Banana Island is surrounded by water.

Lekki phase one is facing the water. Facing the lagoon on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other side.

People love water, that's why Lagos compete globally when it comes to return of investment in real estate. You hear people say I want Ocean View, I love the beach and so on. High net-worth people live on the Island.

London is divided by a river that's why we have the London bridge.

Paris, Maldives, calvary wolf all surrounded by water. Even Dubai is building artificial island

So the number one location that appreciate faster than any other when it comes to land banking is:
LAND FACING, SURROUNDED OR DIVIDED BY WATER.

However you'd need coaching on this. You don't just get any land because it's facing water.

That is why some houses get flooded because they'll not engage the services of a professional like me.

We currently have our Murgwurt lagoon front estate strategically position for massive return on investment for wise investors like you.

Feel free to call me today let's partner with you to make your real estate investment dream a reality.

Your are correct sir there are so many ways to go about it the best way (depends on what you are shipping) is to pay for a space in one of those guys that ship containers regularly (especially those guys that ship used tires)
FEGEITOK:


Agreeing with you.

The only way to get it cheap is to buy it cheap overseas and then ship it in through the cheapest possible means.

I have done this several times, but this also means that you will not deal directly with customs.

it also means there will be some delays in clearing.

The one time that I tried to ship directly, item was in Nigeria in 3 days then customs slammed me with unspeakable charges, we had to go into serious negotiations to reduce the cost, it took almost a month.

Finally, I was offered a lower price to pay which was tens of times the cost I would have paid going through a third-party shipper.

Since then, it is a third-party shipper or nothing.

The is so much human intervention and opacity in the operations of customs clearing in Nigeria, don't be a victim.

I only do this when I compare the cost both ways and confirm I can despite everything get it cheaper importing or quality cannot be sacrificed.

The double walling is designed for security reason and noise cancellation.
Purpose of lintel on this section is to cover any void portion like door, windows etc
So the wall there didn’t need such
I believed I have answered your question

Good idea but this is setting the cart before the horse.
They need constant electricity first. What is the point having CCTV if it’s not going to be functional. Not saying it cannot be done with alternative power sources but that is additional burden on homeowners, and might not even be sustainable.
I know a city in the US that has made it mandatory for certain business. They also require the owner to hand over the video recording Within 48-72 hours of request to authorities.
