Well planed and managed 2million can start and finish it
But not with an engenieer they will definetly milk you
And if its a swamp zone forget it
The filling may eat up the whole fund thanks
If you are serious

I am a builder and can certainly tell u dat it depend on a lot of factors such as location,quality of materials to be used and the design of the house.if it is just to build a simple one with Zinc for roofing,excluding d fact that d location is a swampy area,2milion will go along way but not to finish it because u have to also consider workmanship also

of course.... he will get it roofed sef.
but he shouldn't expect a finished building just one he can manage in case his landlord is on his neck and he doesn't want to pay rent again.

Re: Is It Possible To Build A 3 Bedroom Flat With N2million? by akeensbussy(m): 7:36pm On Nov 13, 2015
Yes...2Million will finish your house. Agbara is not a swampy area. With the calculation and info I will put up here.

Rooms 11*10 feet's
kitchen 7*7
sitting room 14*12
Toilet/bath 4*6
all ensuits
visitors toilet 4*4

The total block u will use is 2300units of 6" and 200 of 9". the 9" block is for the foundation. That is to round the foundation and use 6" to demarcate it inside.

2300*#100 = #230,000
200*#150=#30,000

one man diseal of sand 25k
one small tipper of stone #22k
20bags of cement * 1500 naira = 22500 naira for a start.
call the brick layer and ask how much they will lay 2500 blocks for you from foundation to linted and at the end of the day the highest u will pay is 100k- 120k.

u will only need to buy another sand 25k and may be 35bags of cement. with this, ur house will reach linted. do the calculation.

with miscellaneous, 500k will take your 3 bed to linted.

Hmmm. 4.5 would do.2million won't finish the roofing. If he wants to be. Sure let him get a quantity surveyor. 2million won't do it except him go do the labour,masonry, carpentry fittings plus mechanical work. Mechanical work alone self go reach 450'to 500 wt borehole. Abi water no go dey d house

Which state in the country are you based?

Sure it is possible, if you use substandard materials for the finishing. Foundation alone will send you back over quarter of a million. Building to lintel level will cost almost as much. Roofing and ceiling will definitely cost more than half a million. With your under one million left, you can get cheap tiles, doors, windows, plumbing and electric materials. There are different categories of these items in the market, you can go for the cheapest (though I won't recommend it). Even if you have to add to the initial N2m budget, it won't be up to 200k.

Hmm I thought you are just health prefect grin

95% of those commenting on this thread never buy land talkless of having any knowledge of building a house.




it actually depend on a lot of factors but trust me if your boss can be able to fully monitor the project and disbursement of the fund it should be enough to complete a modest 3 bedroom flat.

u will need to employ some very prudent measures to do this, U can run away with it in Ibadan..but in Lagos? ask ur Oga to confirm the foundation type done in the area first before concluding. If u need an Engineer for design and construction.. contact me.08132409600, 08093063613

I will say yes, but it will depend on the type of roofing. He cannot use aluminum because that will be more money. Between N600 to N700 will build the house to roofing level, area boys (omo onile) money included. I put that @N50k. If you use slate for the roofing, materials and workmanship will be between 300k to 360k. The rest money will be for plastering, window, electrical, plumbing etc. The answer is yes. Lastly, your boss will need to monitor the work by himself. Talking from experience

listen for your own good! most of those advising you here don't even know what it means to own a piece of land . see! that money will do beyond your expectations, but not necessarily complete it. you have to be careful those you contract to do the works for you. I could remember doing my foundation for 150k of which I would have done for 300k. image the difference ? I that's why you have to get someone trust worthy. well my house is at lintel and I have spent close a million. a word is enough for the wise. between not matter what, start! should you need a breakdown, pm me
