You could say that, but hey let's face it you still need to answer the question. I lived in mushin off isolo rd and I'm interested to know where this so call land of yours is. Make sure is your land that you are selling or else you could end up in kiri-kiri.

@ nkwo
please answer the question, he's just helping you to sell your land. If you don't know by now, location matters when it comes to real estate.

check your email, please.

A bungalow of 2nos of 3bdrm will cost you between 5 and 7 millions naira. Cost for different stages of the project will vary due to changing in the price of materials.
It is a good idea to build houses in stages. eg foundation stage, filling and german flooring stage, block setting and lintel stage, roofing stage, plumbing and electrical fitting stage, plastering stage and so on. Although it may not be cost effective this way in terms of labour cost and changing price of materials, it has a lot of benefit and advantages.
Please read article on Building Stages by the Nigeria on-line building expert "thirdeye"

Good job, 3rd eye. This really helps a lot.

I am in need of a roofer/carpenter to construct a roof on a 3 bdrm bungalow house in Lagos. I will need a few estimates/quotations so feel free to respond if you are experienced carpenter or roofer. I can send you the house drawing/plan if need be.

A portable Honda generator of about 5Kva should do for your house. For AC,  do you need a window unit or a central unit ? A central unit will be better but could be very expensive.

Please provide your email address. Also, what type of documents do you have with these properties.

@ woodpecker I will advice you to shut up if you don't know what you are talking about. If you are an architect then you need some learning to do.
And please be adviced that you are been watched carefully.

@ looking09 This is just for the foundation, I believed and where is the location of this project.

Very good point.

The amount is not reasonable. First all, 150k for building plan/drawing for a 4 bdrm bungalow without structural plan/design is way too high. I would not pay more that 70k for this. Also the location is in Sango Ota where the soil is very strong and stiff so under no circumstances should the foundation cost 600k even for a 5 bdrm bungalow. Majority of the work involved in foundation is block work unless if it's raft or pile then much of that will be concrete and reinforcement iron.
My rough estimate on materials will be as follows:
- clear site and bushes 5k (Malam will do this cheap)
- Wood for pegging, nails and labor about 15k
- Digging foundation 15k
- 1.5 lorry of Granite (10 Tons) Mainly for the foundation slab (4 - 6 in)
- 2 lorry of sharp (20 Tons) For foundation slab and block setting to DPC level
- About 30 - 40 bags of cement at most
- About 600 - 700 of blocks at most ( Assuming 4 coaches)
- water 5k
- Brick layer fee 70k at most

@ segzi cres, good luck geting business.

Yeah mon! wey akodo village dey ? Mi afi like to know.

@larez
Lanre or what ever your name is call be very carefull of the advice you give fellow nairalander. Why would a person buy a house just from viewing it on google earth? Can you see the inside of the house? This is misleading and wrong at best. Any way the name ajileko was given to me by my girl, a nigerian. It means a person that wakes up with a hard and stiff bloncun. You should know that since you call yourself a yoruba.

@larez Let's be real, do you expect us to believe you actually owned those designs ? give me a break.

Any idea on the US$ ?

Do you own this land ? Will you come down on the price ?

very good and quality block. Very expensive too.

You can buy but make sure you have some kind of travel visa/documents the will enable you to make a legal transaction in the USA. It will also be advisable for you to travel down and see what you are buying. You may be able to buy in someone else name but be very carefull about that.

very good. I think it's worth the initial investment.

Nna bia.

@Aloy.Emeka
I think Emeka is an Igbo boy so I can see why he's advocating for computer village. BTW Emeka, have you check your IQ lately ? please do before you come back to this forum.

This doesn't make sense at all. If we Nigerians can obey the law and follow the rule abroad, why can't we do the same at home. I'm sure most of the folks here that lives abroad will dare not mess with the law or else they will have their ass deported or jailed.

The price you pay for clearing your car/vehicle is dependent on several factors. eg, size of the car, the year and model, the make plus the size of the engine. Also, with containerized vehicles, you will pay more.

Take this crap out of here, you cheap bastard.

good. I'll keep in touch.

It looks like this vehicle was involved in an accident in october of 2006.

How much estimate were you quoted if I may ask. Was it anywhere close to what thirdeye gave you

Thanks lawyer for taking the time and checking this for me. I'm sure there are more folks in my shoe on this forum.

He's in the right place and pro72, don't confuse the guy.
Budget a minimum of 7 million naira for the house and 1 plot of land. Also don't forget the borehole, septic tank, generator and all that.

@lawyer, I have a piece of land with a global C of O and the true certified copy. My question is can I apply for a building permit and start building ?

how many tons do you need ?
