5. Know thy neighbours.

This is something that is often neglected by new home owners who just acquired their property. We can’t stress how important it is to know your neighbours and vice versa. Having a good relationship with your neighbours are crucial as they could potentially object against your DA submission, which may result in your project being rejected and having to be re-designed. By having a good relationship with your neighbours, this will help to mitigate any potential complaints that may arise.

4. Have a realistic budget.

The word ‘budget’ is often considered to be taboo when it comes to construction projects. However, being transparent with your budget upfront during the design stage of the project can help prevent future heartbreaks. Too often people begin designing or even constructing their project without first obtaining an accurate construction cost estimate on their project. It may be worthwhile considering spending a few thousand naira on a Bill of Quantities from a Quantity Surveyor as it could lead help prevent you from getting a hefty variation on your project which could cost many times more.

3. Have your finances in place.

Although obtaining a project’s finances is becoming increasingly more difficult. It is important to first have your finances in place before you begin getting quotes on the project and begin construction.

You are more likely to be taken seriously and given accurate quotes if you have obtained pre-approval for your finances on the project. It goes without saying that no one wants to ‘waste their time’. This is especially true in construction as the quoting process for a builder can often take weeks to complete.

2. Make sure your project has the right amount of details.

Before you go out looking for a ‘quote’ for your project, you should ensure that you have sufficient information regarding the project’s details. We recommend holding off on getting quotes until you have finalised the scope of works for your project.

Without sufficient details, any quotes you received are likely to be unsubstantiated and can often be misleading. A common mistake we see is owners asking for quotes based on just a The-stamped drawing. You should wait until you have at least the following documents:

•Survey Plan;

•Schedule of finishes / Specifications;

•Architectural drawings (Plans,
Elevations, Sections, etc.);

•Structural Engineering drawings;

•Stormwater / Sewer Diagrams

1. Choosing the right Architect to help with the Design.

We can’t stress how important it is to have an Architect on board to help with your project’s design. Although the costs of engaging an Architect is typically higher than that of a draftsman, we strongly believe that it is worth the investment. Having a well-designed project will not only help add value to the property, but more importantly will help to improve the user’s experience of the building.

A well-designed building can help to invoke a feeling which will affect the user’s emotional well-being. (for better and for worse) Studies show that a well-designed space can help people heal faster in hospitals, learn better in institutions or elevate the user’s mood.

Victory is certain

I pray we get it right in this country someday

I have been thinking of connecting with her but i remembered that she deactivated all her previous social media handles due to her job...

She is the understanding type but I can't say same with dat my bro.....

I fit tell am now make he just flare up...

You can't hide it from him. He deserves to know now so he'll take whatever decision that suits him. Moreover you haven't done any wrong here, its just coincidence that ur brother is dating her

Hmm. Quite complicated I'll say it depends on ur brother level of maturity and how he'll be able handle it. But i feel you should let him know as there are some things you don't have keep quiet about . Imagine if he get to find out after been married to her, he'll feel betrayed by you. So u gats man up and tell him. What will be will be.

Nice one. D boys did well

Are you sure this man is not into comedy?

I doubt if he knows what's going on

It's well. The times are evil indeed, it's a sad on how a father would perpuate such evil on the son and family. I quite understands that the current economic situation isn't good but there are some things you should just not indulge urself in. Always pray, work hard smart, and baba God would surely pick your call one day...

Good luck. He's the best candidate so-far

Congratulations to him. Oron is a very nice place to live in. I was there throughout 2020 for a construction job i did for a client based abroad. There's a little fun places to visit and enjoy yourself like food affairs, Vi fries, Unique exclusive taste and moreso sea food like crayfish is surplus there and cheap too.. Also visit the Afam river as you can pass there to Cameroon just about 2hrs via speed boat. Another wonderful place is the maritime academy there in Oron.

He should try and visit that restaurant in Oron. Mheen it's one thing i miss about the Oron
