When I started my two storey building in 2014, I had about 6 -8 million naira in my account then. That amount got me to Roofing stage. It took me four years to totally complete the project . |

Didn't have much then. managed to buy 200 blocks and 4 bags of cement and did the foundation to secure the lamd land. After a long while of saving, I bought like 500 blocks and continued. After a long rest and savings, I bought more blocks to take it to lintel level and finally roofing level. I hibernated for close to 7 months to be able to save enough money for the roofing and noggin for (POP). After the roofing I disappeared and saved for like 5months before I started plumbing, burglaries (to secure the house), window frames, main entrance door and back door, soak away, etc. I now decided to concentrate on 1[b] room[/b] inside the 3bedroom, put the toilet and the room door, plastered the room, fixed windows and net for the room. Today I bought 6 bags of white cement and other materials for POP work in the room. Once this is done, I'd try and put floor tiles, toilet tiles, water cistern, and I will jejely pack in. I'd do the rest gradually once I'm in. House mata no be gra gra. Lest I forget, I'd now find a befitting girl to be the first lady of the house � 8 Likes |

Cashio:I quite understand you sir. What inmean to do is, buy blocks of 200 Naira each, multiplied by that amount and rest. Next is to buy 3 trips of sand, then 20 bags of cement, gather enough money for the bricklayers and start. I have land already, the architectural design is with me already. Thanks for your advice anyway , I’ve noted it. I appreciate your input. Meanwhile, that’s a beautiful house you have there. Na you draw am? 1 Like |

Honestly about 3.5 but I wasn't eager about a house, I need a new car. So I got a new car instead and spent the remaining 500,000 on blocks. Next year I finished the crib and my family moved in.

Well you have to start a stage first like from digging the foundation to DPC level if you have enough fund. But if not start anywhere you have money. It also depends on the size of your building structure. Reason I say stage by stage is because most building Engr's charges base on stages and not as per day rate. So every cost for each stage needs to be noted down before commencement so you know you are paying workers and Engr fee for that whole stage of the building as you progress. |

divads:first, i have to see the drawing. What are the spaces provided on the ground floor? Roughly though, you should budget about 4m if your soil is stable and won't need additional reinforcements. |
Re: How Much Was In Your Account When You Started Your Building Project? by Cashio(m): 8:56pm On Apr 14, 2022 |
Meteng:yes i did the design. I am an architect. That's a good start. I never knew you had a drawing already. But since you have a design already, the best thing is to employ the services of a professional to estimate the cost of materials and labour required to finish the foundation, the next stage is foundation to lintel level, the next is final block levelling. After that, the roof and finishings. Having those information i stated above will aid in your planning so you don't just lay 50 blocks inside the foundation and eventually you discover that the project is beyond your capacity at this time. Mist times, that is why you see so many people start up building projects and end up not finishing it. In some cases, most if those projects even end up swallowing the owner's means of livelihood and they end up struggling to survive. It is always good to have an idea of what your budget should be like so you can evaluate the possibility of meeting up with such budget over a specific period of time so you don't end up wasting money to start what you cannot finish in years. You may want to start a duplex, where as your income only permits a bungalow. Or you may want to start a 5 bedroom bungalow where by your income can only accommodate a 2 bedroom bungalow without affecting your pocket badly. 2 Likes |
