* For real? And we wonder why we have plenty collapsed and structurally unsafe buildings? My future builder, for a sound 3 bedroom flat depending on location, topography of land and above all personal taste, budget between 10m to 25m.

That is just it. 10m sef na poor man bungalow and it will not take care of the interlocks and plastering of the fence.

I cant stop laughing at the prices I am seeing here.
What matters most is supervision. If you dont supervise your building yourself or get your dad to do it for you, you will end up paying higher for everything.
Cement alone, the workers on site can steal two bags for every 3 bags they use.

Three major things that makes your building not last is one you (client) two Materials used and three the hands you hire to do your construction.
I wonder a man storm Nairaland few month ago claiming how 2m can finish all in a building.
This is 21th century sirs and mas, good things isn't that cheap.
Build what will last the test of time.
Professionals might be expensive a bit but far better than wasting money in the end.
Let's wise up.
If you have issues with materials buy it, monitor your materials well,get compete hands.
Enough of building failures and sad stories here.
May God provide for yours all.

20 million will conveniently handle everything and you will still have change.
Please dont budget bellow this because it is better you have what it takes to finish the house and have some change left than to hook for road.

Depends on your budget.... 3 rooms and parlor with dinning and 2 toilets, parafet, and aluminum zinc should be around 4 to 5 m

If the cost of house is as cheap as you guys portray I'd have built one by now.
For a standard 3 bedroom flat budget between 10-14m

If there's land already all you need is 7million and you'll get a standard 3 bedroom flat. Trust me when I say a standard bedroom.

Very true. I got an engineer who gave me an estimated #15m to complete it. By and large, my husband and I thought he was just being very unreasonable only for us to give a Qty surveyor to give us an estimate. He came up with #12.8m and we were so elated that at least we go get change on the #15m.

So we mapped out #15m for the project and gave to another Engr to handle. We have exhausted that #15m and the project is still far from being completed. Screeding, Tiling, Electrical and Plumbing Fixtures, Painting, still outstanding and those will take the bulk of the expenses as you have to finish to taste too.

After all said and done, we discovered that the engr we hired for less, lacks experience and was hardly available, so for almost everything done in the site, we had to correct and pay for labor again. Moreover, the site manager and the engineer were conniving with the suppliers and laborers to rip us off.

It taught us a lot of lessons.
1) Always supervise your work yourself even with a professional engr on the site
2) Buy your materials yourself. That way, you pay less and still get the best
3) Always insist on what you want done

That way you might spend between #14-16m and get a standard 3 bedroom.

Madam with proper management it should cost under 10m in Benin in a dry area. Unless of course your taste is exquisite.
Sadly too many people you trust are only too eager to rip you off. If you are in diaspora 50 to 150% inflation of cost should not surprise you. Seen it all. If rental accommodation building expensive means low ROI.

If building to live in think of how long you hope to live in it. Will family still grow, etc?

Op you can build with 7million. You won't use pop . You can use something cheaper like pvc , no screeding and no parapet. All those are what make houses very expensive. I built a 3-bedroom bungalow last year with 7million. All those saying 10million e b like say na raft foundation Dem one use build foundation. If the place is not water logged , you Use strip foundation and as long the soil there doesn't have a low bearing capacity and the area ain't water logged.
7million would build a conservative 3-bedroom bungalow

There is no much financial difference, between a duplex and a bungalow of the same size and standard.

Which is why cheap Labour is always more expensive in the long run.
