Hello Nairalanders, apart from staying in hotels or air bnb's in the US for holidays, duration of 2 weeks to 1-2 months what other alternatives do one have for a good accomodation that can still afford you to cook and all. Do Nigerians in the States let out their apartments or room for shortlets? Does anyone here have good or bad ecperiencea about these and how good is air bnb especially since you are black and most of the home owners are whites (racism) factors. Comments, advises, personal experiences and suggestions are welcome.

Hello All,

I need advise on how to go about travelling to Cotonou for Holiday (one or 2 weeks) from Nigeria. I would be going with my 2 kids and will prefer to go by road so they can see lots of stuff. I would like you to advise on:

1) Will i be able to get a car or bus that will take me straight into cotonou(not seme border) and still be able to stamp my passport, less problem at the border because of the kids.
2) Where is the best area to stay to enjoy a week stay
3) How and where can i get cheap but decent hotels (a/c and tv because of the kids) or short let flats where i can probably cook
4) Which areas or places of attractions can we visit and mode of transportation
5) How much do you think i would probably need for this trip- 2 adults, 2 children, transpotation to and from cotonou, 1-2 weeks stay, hotel and tourist attractions and maybe a little shopping

I would appreciate any advise especially from people who and done this before.

How rigorous is the process of accuring a land from the government expecially the Badagry scheme. How long does it take before one can take possession and since the money involved according to their gazzette is less than 300k will i still have to pay more than that (legal or illegal fees)? Then how good and accesible are the lands under this scheme? which is the best amongst Ijanikin Rose Garden, Mosafejo/Aradagun or Oko Afo?

I will really like to know or do you think it will be better to just go and buy from the Baale and which areas are the best.

textington:

I hope that you know that most land in badagry are under acquisition
and with fashola new interest in badagry, most of the land will be under
tourism scheme.
Besides all those interested in land can pay for government scheme in
aradagun-mosafejo, oko -afor and ijanikin rose scheme for less than
N300,000 per plot with assurance of c.o.f.
and no fear of baba fash.

My Analysis of a good salary is this

Needs Salary Monthly(divided by 12 months)
3 bedroom flat (cheapest) - N200,000 N17,000
Transportation (far distance 700 per day) N17,000
Meal (250 per day) N6,000
Feeding for the family N25,000
School Fees average of 30k per child x 4kids
(120,000 per term) N40,000
Medical N10,000
Miscellaneous N10,000
Clothing N10,000

TOTAL N135,000

This is the average salary that a Nigerian should be paid after tax and this money it self is not enough but can be managed by a family with stigent budget but anything less than this amount is killing in the next few weeks fuel price will increase, market women will increase the price of food stuffs, transport will be increased, so where do we go from here.

I seriously believe that you should stick to your marriage and not just because of avoiding bringing shame on your family but do it for yourself. There is no marriage that cannot work it takes effort and not a one sided effort but effort on both sides involve your wife in this communication is very important talk to her lay it plain to her and tell her what u want to change about her, she should also tell u want she wants from you too this way u can make it work. Tolerance and love can help u wither any storm, accept her for who she is and help her develop into what u want, rome was not built in a day, u can't change a way of life that has been developed for over 30 years in 2 years its not done but with love, understanding , tolerance and good communication u can achieve a lot.

Hello house,

Someone i know needs to buy a half plot of land preferably in an area that is developed, the person is looking at buying the land from a person that has built and is living in half of the property and is willing to sell the other half maybe out of need for money or just wants to dispose of the land. The target area should be Egbeda, iyana ipaja, Abule Egba, Dopemu, Akowonjo and Idimu side and its environs. The price must be reasonable. Does anyone know anyone that is willing to sell.

Ytechconst:

It will cost you about 3.5million to 4million to get it done. Where exactly is the location because location is also a factor that determines cost of constructing a building in terms of availability of materials and labour in that visinity. Get back to me for more concersation.

Thanks for the information its really helpful. I really dont have the land yet but i need to have an extimate of what the building will cost me the land will probably be in the mowe axis or ipaja area.

Please i need to know how much it will cost to build a 3 bedroom bungalow, masters bedroom ensuite and and extra bathroom and toilet for the other 2 rooms and visitors, a moderate size sitting room and kitchen. The house will be a simple bungalow but beautiful no extra design.

I will really appreciate if you can give me a rough estimate.
