N2m will even build you a duplex at Onwuba Itungbe Ongwuli local government area of Abia state, most of it will be constructed of mud and the possibility of it toppling over after a heavy tropical storm is quite high...but hey at least you can can say you too once owned a duplex

yinkaoke:
PLS HELP

I discussed this with my oga who intends to build his house in 6 months and he siad he will build with just N2m without the cost of the land but that the rooms will not be of a standard one and the 3 rooms too. i.e portable flats.

Please is it possible and can anyone give us the break down of how this is possible. his land is at Agbara

many thnaks

It will definitely go a very long way especially with the fallen price of cement.


Personally I will use it to complete a three bedroom in Ibadan.


In fact I still did a rough mental estimate 3days ago.


Note: With high quality materials.

Tolakay:
pls wot was ur estimate like for roofing.... Info abt d basis of ur conclusn will be appreciated

This is mine in my village,it's a six (6) bedroom and parlour with toilet in each room.
I have spent 1.8m already on it..it's remaining on painting and small finishing touches..
So yes depend on your contractor(engineer)and where you are building the house...if it's in the village use local contractors...goodluck


My mother is my site supervisor..she locks every material in our old house and put the key in her central bank..you must confirm that the old materials has finished before you get a new one...no wastage...she really helped me...coz hustle for this side I dey no easy atall..lol

When you say Site location, do you mean its proximity to purchase of materials?

I don't know if you'll read this, but yes it's possible, with stabilized clay blocks. An Engineer in my hometown built an upstair with 3.8 - 4m. I'll upload pics.

jomoh:


Approximately 300k minus the labour. Which accounted for the single most expensive part of the building.

Note: to build this kind of house, one has to be very frugal and disciplined in spending.

Not contracting. All direct labour.

Tolakay:
300k for both roofing sheet and log/wood?

doctokwus:
