@Fastshipping,

Do you believe the guy may not know the difference? I'm not supporting this in anyway but ignorance can kill at times.

I've done a DPC with 5 loads of (30 tons) granite for a client here on Nairaland and he said he's fine so long I'm not the one supplying it. 5 loads of granite is about 750k (just for DPC alone), meanwhile I used N10m to build a similar structure (5 units of 2 bedroom on 2 floors) for another client (also a Nairalander) using NextHome dump truck.

I didn't know so much until I bought my dump truck. I didn't know so much until I signed a partnership agreement with a dredging site. I didn't know so much until I started visiting quarries myself (even though I've left that part for sincere supplier). The few who knew these secret are building half the cost and are not making noise on faceless forum.

lol, no b small sand 101..

When someone deserves accolade, we don't have to deny him.

I've given a supplier a car before because he impressed me.

Who needs a patio garage when there's 10m setback from the fence? This is a planned build for a matured investor and not a bad investment (where 7 flat apartment had only 2.9m driveway) for wannabes.

I can only imagine the kind of tenants a "shift make-I-pass" apartment will attract.

For the record, the Reserve by NextHome can conveniently park 14 cars without any problem. And it was rented immediately on completion.

NL1960:
Was the length reduced?. It looks shorter from the 3D posted. Can a car fit into this as seen from the 3D?.

Don't mind my over-ambitious modeller. He thinks he can impress me with the extras. The place is not a carport but a covered porch to shade the house from direct sunlight. If it's more than the width in the construction picture, then we will be dealing with challenge of illuminating the lounge by the way of natural light. So the modeller is redesigning already.

Much like a big shade tree, the porch will help reduce the cooling costs and will also help reduce glare and fading of home furnishings and the walls.

Simple way to cool a house without breaking bank. I have the option of installing window awnings or screen over that area but just choose to do something different here.

The upper part will have a roof garden where "soji guys" can also have patio umbrellas to relax and sip cool wine.

@Smiley001, thanks for the lecture on Sand 101.

Smiley001, it's time to deliver my goods. I've got a job to do.

Moreso, I'll be taking deliveries for my brick production site next week and if we get to meet anytime soon we can have an agreement on what you'll be delivering every Two week.

If you do not know where you're heading, you'll never get there.

Meanwhile, I'm looking for African-sourced 1968 landrover series IIA pickup. Pls contact Brabus on 08023429122 if you have one.

Fhemmmy:
I will send it via Whatsapp or have my partner to do that, sir

I've not seen the details Oga. We know say n small business but make you no forget us na.

I'm interested. Pls lock one down for me. I'm in Lekki, Lagos.

NextHome Brick+Stone | Queenbrick QT4-20

If there's anything I love in life, it's been unique. Just this afternoon, while driving round our new site, I saw this brick production site and I instantly fell in love with their setup. Of course, I knew the guys behind this and I was already in discussion with Queen Brick for something that's got NextHome written all over. Something we won't have to advertise but will get people queueing to book our blocks and bricks.

Inside 1000sqm block production site, a lot can happen! Expect the best.

FastShipping:
Boss, it's time to move on. Whatever happened between you and brabus, let's leave that to the Almighty.

Please, move on.

@Fastshipping,

If I do bad, let me receive the reward. If I do otherwise, I pray for the reward. I have no regrets whatsoever and at the same time no apologies. When I'm done, I'm done.

Just watch me! The best revenge is success. This year, it'll be total!

Meanwhile, the plan to unveil Luminaire Garden by NextHome midyear is moving fine. It's also a world class touch for the selected few.

Welcome to Nairaland Supreme Court where cases are won by mouth!

GEJ said..., PMB claimed..., APC denied...., Sambo admitted..., EFCC discovered.

There's a little to differentiate all I'm reading here from reported speech. They're baseless until they're published in public domain.

Prophet Dangote predicted N500 - $1. There's difference between paper economist and real economist.

Now, you may want to say "I already knew all this. Tell me something different."

Here's my piece of cake to you:

1. Own everything if possible starting from the land.
2. Start with 300 pallets and grow with that.
3. Don't be greedy. Small profit for now! Bigger gains will come with the number of satisfied patrons. It's a number game bro!
4. Look for delivery pickups to help you with the deliveries. You don't want to spend all your profit on routine maintenance (at least for the first year of business). That will give you ample time to understand the challenges and effective management of delivery pickups.
5. Use the best available materials and produce good quantity per bag. It's only matter of time people will know you for your quality.
6. Sink a borehole. Get a very good generator to power your pumping machine. If you have good startup capital, get a solar powered pumping machine (it's less than 60k). I always like eliminating possible point of failures in my business.
7. Be creative. I visited a block moulding site and I'm tempted to ask questions. The environment is very inviting.


BRB... I need to hit the road now.

Set the bars high. Expect challenges but do not be troubled. Focus on the main goal. And God will see you through.

Good job!
