What Sacrifices Are You Taking Or Took To Build Your Own House? by edoman2016: 6:34am On Jul 07, 2017
I want to learn from house owners or those that are still building their own house, the sacrifices they took or are taking to have enough money to build their own house. It could be cutting down your lifestyle expenses such as cars, clothing, electronics etc, opening a side business or taking an extra job, or no vacation for the family.

Some of us will like to learn from your experiences on the sacrifices you took before building your house.

Saving money won't probably get you a house! If it can, it will take you years. A good business deal/contract will.

No matter the sacrifice if you are not destiny to build house u will not..
For example does that sell petty things build house while people that work with big firm will not becos their what to live big..
Prefer to spend Money on rent annually, Money that can buy land and build better house..
Imagine house rent on island.. My brother u go fear. If u get that kind money u don be landlord for mainland ooo grin grin
That's why my Yoruba people use to say.
Olorun lo kole fun EDA not by power...

And build ur own house is differ from purchasing oooo grin grin

Pray and ask God guide you,and protect you so that this your project can be accomplished in his glory amen.then you start building and at same time keep working hard because houses can consume more than your budgets. Thanks @ Honourable Sakah.

I HAVE NOT BUILT MINE BUT I HAVE MADE SACRIFICES FOR ONE.

OUR THEN RENTED BUILDING WAS BEEN MARKED BY LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT FOR DEMOLITION DURING THE ERA OF FAILED BUILDING COLLAPSE FAR BACK 05/06 AND ALREADY POPSY HAD ACQUIRED PIECE OF LAND AT BADAGRY.

PARENTS CALLED I AND MY 2 SIBLINGS THAT SCHOOL HAS TO BE DROPPED FOR ONE YEAR TO MAKE SURE WE SEE OUR BUILDING TO COMPLETION.

SO WE SKIPPED SCHOOL ONE YEAR, DROPPED THE LUXURY MEALS AND SPENDINGS AND WORK WAS MOVING ON OUR SITE SPEEDILY.

I FOLLOWED MY DAD FROM AJEGUNLE TO BADAGRY ANYTIME WORK WAS TO BE DONE, I OFFERED HELP TOO AS AN UNPAID LABOURER TOO.

LUCKILY THE BUILDING WAS RAISED AND WE PACKED INTO OUR BUILDING LIVING ONLY IN ONE ROOM. WORK WAS STILL ON GOING BUT NOW ON A SLOWER PACE DEPENDING ON WHEN THE MONEY TO EXECUTE IT WAS AVAILABLE.

TO CUT THE LONG STORY SHORT; THE BUILDING IS COMPLETE AND UP TO STANDARD AND I AND MY BROTHERS ARE GRADUATES.

THAT EXPERIENCE THOUGHT ME TWO MAJOR LESSONS: YOU DO NOT NEED A FAT ACCOUNT TO OWN A BUILDING OR PROPERTY AND THERE IS NO STRONGER FORCE LIKE A UNITED FAMILY. MORNING ALL

It's only the grace of God.

I saw a thread on Nairaland then analysing how much is needed to build,one bedroom,two bedroom and three bedroom bungalows respectively.

I was motivated by that post and it was my wish/dream then to build a befitting house before marriage which Allah granted me.

I planned on the type of house I want to build based on my salary then and relating it to the thread I read and it was done.

Though it's not easy because you have to cut down most of your luxuries,no more going to ozone,no more eating at white house, no more dashing out of money unnecessarily.

Within a year I finished building the house,its all God sha,Alhamdulilah.

In this part of the world, a question like this scares women away. They always think it's for Men. No, you're getting it wrong.

By drinking Garri.

Drinking Garri is not a sign of poverty but soaking Garri to rise for a long time is.
