Hello guys, please what other options can one employ to develop or upgrade a building without engaging a developer. The building is old with solid clay blocks and need not be demolished and rebuild but just to do upgrade to maintain the one story building. Note the owners has not money for the upgrade and does not want to do developer contract thing?
Thank you as you suggestion great

I am not sure about the scope of renovation you want to carry out but I can outline the steps I followed in my renovation project.
1. I sat down with an architect to conceptualise the ideas and changes I wanted and how I wanted to make use of the space. He then measured the old building and produced a few computer generated images with these ideas and some suggestions of his own. Once we were both in agreement, he produced final drawings for the builders to work with.
2. I got myself a builder/civil engineer (the choice is yours if you just want to use an experienced bricklayer but due to previous experience I opted for a certified builder.
3. I purchased all the materials (your builder will advise you) to meet the various milestones until completion of the project and paid for labour as required.
4. The biggest lesson from all these was making sure the artisans were well supervised. So many corrections had to be made due to deviation from the original plan and in some cases negligence/laziness or just wickedness (I think!). Always let the professionals guide you but also watch your budget. Some may make you do much more than originally planned.
5. The biggest surprise was totalling my expenses and finding out that renovation is not as cheap as they make you believe when you start!
Good luck.

“American Wire Gauge
American Wire Gauge (AWG) is the standard way to denote wire size in North America. In AWG, the larger the number, the smaller the wire diameter and thickness.”

Thanks
